How to Make Fashion Doll Furniture

Fashion dolls are all about their clothing and makeup. Their dressing rooms should include a vanity table and mirror with a chair and a dressing screen. Each of these furniture items can be created from poster board and duct tape and dolled up with some fabric scraps. A fashion and decorating-minding doll owner would be thrilled to find these pieces of furniture as a gift. Or, the doll owner might want to create the doll furniture.

Instructions

  1. Make a Vanity Table

    • 1

      Draw five 5-inch squares on the poster board with a pencil using the ruler.

    • 2

      Cut out the squares and assemble the vanity table by attaching four squares at right angles to a tabletop square with the duct tape.

    • 3

      Cut a strip of fabric to measure 5-inches wide and 40-inches long. Attach the fabric to the table legs for a skirt below the table top with the white glue, while folding the fabric in pleats with your fingers.

    • 4

      Cut out a 1-inch by 2-inch rectangle of poster board and fold it in half lengthwise. Glue a 1-inch square piece of aluminum foil to one half of the folded poster board with the white glue for a folding mirror. Place the mirror on the vanity table.

    Make a Vanity Chair

    • 5

      Draw five 3-inch squares on the poster board and cut them out.

    • 6

      Assemble the chair and attach the legs with the duct tape in the same manner as the table to create the vanity chair.

    • 7

      Cut out a piece fabric measuring 3-by24-inches long.

    • 8

      Glue pleated fabric to the chair with the white glue.

    Make a Dressing Screen.

    • 9

      Draw and cut out three rectangles of poster board measuring 8-by-3-inches each.

    • 10

      Attach two rectangles lengthwise with the masking tape on the front and back edges, leaving enough tape between the rectangles to fold the pieces.

    • 11

      Attach the third rectangle by the same method. Fold the finished dressing screen in an accordion manner.
