Displaying Doll Clothes


From Hello Kirsti here


 I made a bunch of doll clothes a few years ago and never really used them. I wanted to display them in my sewing room and my hallway found a few ways to do this. Again, when I get my camera I'll show you it. I put a couple in shadow box frames for the hallway and the others I hung up in a clothes line style on the back of my sewing room door. Here are some photos of others who have done the same.

Decoupage your Outlet Covers

I've been doing this to my covers and a photo of one I did here a while ago for my circus themed stair hallway.

Anyway, I've been decoupaging my light switches in my bedroom and sewing room with pretty fabric. I'd love to show you but I still don't have a camera. When I get the camera , I am going to have a million posts of all the stuff I've done over the summer.

The photo on the left is from 11 Magnolia Lane and she gives a great explanation on how to do it. It is a fun a cheap way to decorate a room. Her tutorial is here
