Repainting plastic doll furniture isn’t as easy as you might think. How do you keep from painting windows and handles, for example? This video shows you the tips and tricks I’ve learned from my diorama-expert friends and colleagues.

Today’s video is an older one, but new visitors to my website may not have seen some of my diorama tutorials. So I thought it might be fun to revisit them.

Here’s a link to a similar armoire, which you can buy on Amazon or eBay. The Gloria Dollhouse Furniture sets are, of course, in 1:6 scale, so they suit Barbie and other fashion dolls perfectly.

In the video, I also mention using spray paint that bonds to plastic and painter’s tape. Those links should help you find what you need for this project.

If you’re wondering why I make patterns and tutorials without charging a fee, please visit this page, and that should explain my general motivations. Overall, I love to sew, design doll clothes, and embroider, and I think it’s important to share my talents with the world, so others can learn to do what I do.
