Castle Bed for American Girl Doll
This summer I thought it would be fun for Maddie and I to make something together and she’s been wanting to make a doll bed.
It took us 3 weeks from start to finish {it was really hot and humid so we had to take a lot of Popsicle breaks!}
It was really involved so I’m just going to show you some picture of the process without explaining everything.
Okay? 
I honestly think I could have built a child sized castle bed in the same time frame. Working with tiny parts and pieces was more difficult than I expected! But it was fun working together, especially when we got to take a Popsicle break!

Hi. I’m Sandra.
I'm a crafter, DIY'er, home renovator and builder of "STUFF". We move frequently so I get lots of chances to buy a house and then tear it up so I can put my mark on it before we sell it and move again. I hope you'll join me on my DIY adventure as I start all over again.
