Blue Bucket
Buy this things a while ago but just had time to post about it. I buy this bucket at one of Japanese stuffs store. It cost me Rp 18.900 or about US$ 2. It's pretty expensive but I like to had one :) I can use it for barbie's trash can or water bucket.

A Traditional Touch
It's been a while since I found some scrap fabric from my Thailand's songket. The size fit for one Barbie's skirt. But I just had time to make it and post it in here. This dress is kind of dress you used for a wedding party or semiformal party in Indonesia. The top is easy to make. My aunt teach me how to make it. This fit barbie perfectly.

Dangle Earrings & Matching Necklaces Pendant
New in the accessories line are dangle earrings and matching necklace pendant. Nice for your doll and you can always matched it with your outfit.
School Supplies
Things you can put on your table can really be varied. Pictures above showing you how to filled up your table with school stuff such as books, pencils, colored pencils and drawing book. How to make books and pencils can be found in one of My Froggy Stuff videos in youtube.
Yogurette Table
This table made out of yogurette box. It's a chocolate box. I didn't paint or cover it because it already had a nice picture. For the leg I used wooden clothes pins and wooden hand-fan that broken. I glue the leg to the box and then glue the fan. Put your stuff on top of it such as books, pencils, etc. Pair it with chair and your table ready to use.

Bookends
I have to look out to Ikea katalog to find out how the bookend called. New word for me since I don't use English as my first language. Anyway... the idea came up when I start making books for my dolls. I don't make too many books that need a bookcase but I need something to keep it stand up on the table. So I'm thinking about making a bookend.
To make a bookend, I just need small paper clips. I bend one part of the paper clip until it shape like 'L'. And your bookend ready to use. If you don't have a wall to hold your books on the other end, so you need 2 bookends to keep your book stand. It's so easy to make and also simple.
Wooden Leg Stool
Another inspiration I got from My Froggy Stuff. Yeah sure, she's really creative and plenty of idea. This time I use a water gallon cap for the seat part and chopsticks for the leg. It's not easy to find wooden dowel here in Jakarta. So I have to be creative just like froggy mama. With old fabric and glue gun, the stool turn out pretty nice.
No Sew, No Glue Chair
Still inspired by My Froggy Stuff. I'm using Pringles canister and old t-shirt. It turn out pretty nice for my 11,5 inches doll :)
Chair
Inspired by My Froggy Stuff, I was planning to make the chair. Fortunately my sister brought ice cream from her office. So after eating ice cream, I told everyone to collect the stick. So far I got 6 sticks. So I only able to make one chair. This chair is quite easy to make but a bit tricky with the legs. One of the chair leg keep sticking out. Well, there's nothing perfect in this life :)

Purple Sofa
This is the third sofa I make. I use felt to cover the sofa. This time I make it differently from before. This time I cover all the cardboard and sew it with sewing machine. To joint all part I also sew it together. This is quite similar with my first sofa. I also add decoration pillows with lighter color than the sofa with pink accent.

Liv Doll
Watching My Froggy Stuff makes me thinking about collecting another dolls other than Barbie. My choices are Liv Doll or BFC Ink. Because they have a nice face and they have articulate joint. But finally I choose Liv Doll because it's price and size. The price and size are about the same with Barbie Doll. Although Liv Doll has bigger head than Barbie. This doll also using a wig that you can change. The eyes look so real make the doll look really pretty. With the same price as Barbie, Liv Doll give more such as another set of dress, hair brush, bag, earring, and other tools depend on your doll. From all the choices, I choose Alexis It's My Nature for my first collection. Because the doll wasn't available in Indonesia, I decided to buy it online and sent to my friend who's stay in London for a while and will coming back to Indonesia.
Yesterday I met my friend and she bring my doll. I'm so happy and I like it so much... Can't wait to make dresses and other things for her... Wait up for my review, I just get her out of the box.

Cardboard Drawer
This drawer also one thing I made for my niece. Instead of making the one that look like a drawer, I decided to make real drawer so she can keep something inside of it. The surface covered with duct tape and I used beads for the handle. Instead of gluing the beads, I used wire to fix it.
Sofa & Small Pillows
This sofa was made for my niece. She's keep asking when I will make her something else. So in one day, I ended up making sofa, drawer, books, bed and pillows. Tutorial how to make this can be found in this blog.

Remake of the Desk Lamp
Before |
After |
The first picture was a desk lamp I made for my niece. But after sometimes, the things start to falling apart. So I bring it home and remake the lamp.
I change the lamp cap with scrap-booking paper. I drew two circle and cut on bigger circle. After that I make 8 vertical line connecting smaller & bigger circle and cut it. It will make it easier to bend the paper. Glue them until it form a bucket and the rest was the same with instruction on this blog. As an accent I use small ribbon.
Curly Barbie
One of my barbie had a hair makeover. I curled the hair. How to curl barbie's hair can be seen in here. Ain't she lovely with her curly hair?

Green Dress for Skipper
This Skipper owned by my little sister. I made this dress out of my imagination with my scrap yarn. It look so sexy on her. I think this Skipper has a prettier face than I remember :)
My Half Barbie
The tittle may sound funny. But that's a fact. Not really half in physically but more like the ownership. My sister & I bought this barbie after we collect some point in one of supermarket. We can bought it with small amount of money if we have a certain amount of point. Since my sister didn't have a barbie so we bought this barbie. So it's only half mine. Although in reality I played this barbie most of the time.
