I'm sure we've all noticed that toys and other items have become a little scarce in 2020... But the 1:6 scale
doll house furniture at Dollar Tree is actually made here in the USA, so it's one item that has been replenished regularly. Barbie says that's a good thing:@) I picked up an extra set of the kitchen chairs (you get two for $1), because I thought it might be fun to add a slipcover so I could use them as livingroom furniture. Or with a fancier fabric, maybe diningroom or bedroom chairs. It turned out to be an easier project than anticipated...

I also made one in a Christmas fabric:
Another idea, wrap some ribbon around the lower back...
This Philadelphia Eagles ribbon is 5/8" wide.
The chairs I started with (although mine are hot pink):

The placemat made a nice ~smooth~ easy floor covering:@) Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteGo Iggles! Lol ... not a sports fan, me, but I recognized the logo. Triggered.
ReplyDeleteI got the hot pink chairs, too. They will definitely need covers ;-) Thanks for sharing this quick pattern.
I love pink, but, Barbie sure has a lot of it! Thanks for stopping by:@)
DeleteI picked up five sets of these, one went to the Salvation Army giving tree. A little gal wanted to play house with her new Barbie. I haven't painted them yet, but was thinking of doing some sort of slip cover, this is simple and clever, and can be changed out! Winter project...lol! Hugs, Sandi
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you make!
DeleteThis is such a cute idea, Lynn. I’m going to be checking out Dollar Tree for some furniture. I’m thinking my two little granddaughters would like this at my house.
