Well, I have been trying to put several new posts on with pictures, but I am having difficulty, so now I am trying to write something to fill in.

It’s my little sister’s birthday tomorrow. She will be 4. She is so excited!

I have been working on a doll house for her for weeks! I was going to do it out of wood, but we ended up using cardboard boxes instead.

The house looks GREAT!!! After I had finished making it I just sat there staring at it in awe, just thinking, “I have just created a mini world by using things from around the house that we throw away all the time.” For example, I make a table out of a cardboard card holder and a plastic bottle lit, and a paper towel roll thingy.

I made two little kiddie beds out of soap boxes and cardboard. The parent’s bed is a bunch of mini raisin boxes glued together with stuffing on top, and the headboard is a yogurt lid.

The couch in the living room is a Velveta box with the sides cut and folded in. The TV the end of a toothpaste box covered with black fabric.

This truly was a project after my own heart, and I LOVED making it, it is like interior decorating on mini scale. I will put up some pictures of it some other time, after she opens it.
