Have you seen the choices out there? The are either huge and meant for Barbies, expensive and cheapie looking, or crazy expensive and just out of our budget.
So I saw a pinterest post that sparked my creative juices. Somebody else had taken a large barbie house and redecorated it to look more modern.
I can do that for Everly's little Frozen characters!
So I popped over to Maj R Thrift and found this beauty for 1.50:
It's just right. It's missing a top piece, but I figured I could work around that.
I gave it a wipe down and used my countertop scraper to remove all the stickers.
I found a good "frozen" blue spray paint at Hobby Lobby (40% off coupon!). Just make sure it works on plastic. I sprayed it down outside, but carefully brought it in to dry because it is so cold outside. Soon it was ready to decorate! I love doing this stuff...
Luckily, Everly konked out on the kitchen and gave a about an hour to work on it.
I used this "Bling on a roll" I got a Walmart for tons of stuff! I just cut the rows apart and used them to outline and make everything sparkly!
Hot glue gun is the way to go.
A little silver paint and glitter paint to paint and accent.
My favorite part was making new banners out of sparky silver ribbon.
I just went to town! Made is as cute and fun as I could...I think she's going to love it.
I decided to go dig out a few pieces of our miniature doll furniture and remake them in the same style. Most of these are from a Rapunzel tower or thrift store finds.
All done!
I can't wait to give it to her!
