To a dollhouse

Had a long break from crafts in general but have finally delved back into doing various stuffs!

Made some dollhouse canopy bed frames in 1:12 scale (metric system) from narrow, square wooden sticks and couple children's outdoor swings during July-August. Now just have to find some suitable fabrics to finish those beds :)

First a white canopy bed with rounded headboard and end.





Then black and brown canopy beds without rounding. All 3 beds are glued together and not for playing.


 


And two children's outdoor swings in blue and green. The swing robes didn't end up 100% even but then again, they aren't always that in real either :p



The robes are knotted and glued to metal circles bend from thin metal thread. Two of such circles on each robe at the top (8 per swing) to enable real swinging - naturally it would have been easier to just buy small circles used in DIY jewelries! Just like the beds, these glued swings can't handle playing - decorations only.
