For my regular followers, I realize you’ve seen this one before. Sorry! But my sewing room diorama wouldn’t be complete without my adjustable doll ironing board. For anyone who’s new to this site, you probably need the free pattern for the ironing board’s surface (which is also used for making the ironing board’s pretty cover). Just click that link above, and it’ll take you right … Continue reading #DollFurniture DIY Projects in #Miniature @ ChellyWood.com

#BarbieDoll #DressForm DIY for Your #Dolling Diorama @ ChellyWood.com

Isn’t this a cute little dress form? I bought it on eBay (see link for seller) for a very reasonable price, but I didn’t really like the color. Its original color was black with a gold stand. As I wanted a red-white-and-turquoise theme for my sewing room, I decided a can of spray paint was all it would take to turn this “Barbie™ dress form” into … Continue reading #BarbieDoll #DressForm DIY for Your #Dolling Diorama @ ChellyWood.com

Want to know how I put together and re-painted this office-style desk for 1:6 scale dolls like Barbie and my Liv Doll? Here’s the tutorial to show you how. Now, I had a heck of a time putting this desk together for the first time because the instructions that come with the set aren’t very clearly explained, and nobody had ever made a tutorial showing … Continue reading #FashionDoll Desk Remodel #Tutorial @ ChellyWood.com

Please forgive the poor quality of this video; it’s one of the first doll diorama tutorials I ever created. That’s why I thought it wouldn’t hurt to repost about it today, since many of you probably haven’t even seen this one. You may have seen the finished chairs, though, as they appear in several scenes of my Romeo and Juliet stop-motion film.

We’re on the set of Romeo and Juliet today, watching the filming of Act 4, Scene 3 from behind the scenes. Check out that little clapboard I made from iClipart!

DIY Adjustable IroningBoard for #Dolls’ #Dioramas @ ChellyWood.com #BJD

Tuesday’s post offered the pattern mentioned in this tutorial, and now, here’s the tutorial itself, showing you how to build a cute little adjustable ironing board for your dolly dioramas. Please note that this ironing board is meant for dioramas, not for kids’ toys. That’s because it’s pretty unstable (due to its adjustable nature) without the use of Glue Dots to hold it to the floor … Continue reading DIY Adjustable IroningBoard for #Dolls’ #Dioramas @ ChellyWood.com #BJD
