Hello! I am working on my dollhouse kitchen, and I want to add beams to the ceiling. I heard balsa wood is good for pretty much everything. Would this be a good choice of materials? What is the best place to buy it? The picture shown is something I found online that is something like what I want to do.

Hi everyone I would like to introduce myself, my name is Sarah, I live in Empangeni, South Africa, where I work as a doctor. I am a complete newbie to the world of miniatures, apart from ice cream stick cabins I built as an eight year old fashioned after the Little House on the Prairie. I have always loved dollhouses (I had a beautiful shop-bought dollhouse as a little girl inherited from older cousins), and it was my absolute favorite plaything and made my imagination run wild. I also have a deeply entrenched love of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books. I would therefore like to make my first project a log-cabin dollhouse, furnished after the log cabin built in the second book in the series (Little house on the prairie) I have been checking out Dura-Craft houses available on eBay. What is the difference between the Oregon trail log cabin and the Pioneer cabin by Dura-Craft? They look the same to me in the pictures posted on line. I would also like to ask, has anyone built one of these two houses before? Are they worth it, or is there a better model kit for a pioneer cabin? Also, what tools, glues and other supplies will I need to purchase for this project? ( I won't be using wallpaper as I want to maintain the rustic pioneer feel) Thanks everyone, and nice to meet you.

One of the things that I love about this hobby is the way Im always learning new techniques and finding new supplies to improve the quality of the work that I do and become more self sufficient as a collector so Im not purchasing as much, I love learning to make my own items. This past year Ive discovered: ~Punch needle embroidery ~Yes glue ~the charm of Half scale dollhouses ~a clear acrylic quilters ruler makes a great tool for doing a traditional shingle roof ~artist quality paint is better than craft quality paint...its worth the extra few bucks ~how much better my wood floors look after several coats of poly, I wont skip this step now ~E6000 glue, my favorite now for working with glass beads,etc ~Making your own furniture is NOT as hard as it looks,its easy and rewarding Things Ive always wanted to learn how to do, and I finally did: ~Leather books ~Potion bottles ~Trunk ~rugs ~mini silk ribbon roses Its exciting to think of what I might learn next. Is there a new tool or tip youve discovered recently so we can all learn from your experience?
