Hope you don't mind me sharing but it's pretty cool making some of this stuff.
Because it's part of my controversial static display in "my room" I've made the desk 10% deeper than it should be to make it look more spacialy correct at the back out the house when stuffs on it. How's that for dribble?? Cheers Glen  |

That's just totally cool Glen! You are quite a craftsman to be able to make such great mini furniture. It takes a lot of skill to do woodworking and cabinetry in full scale, but to do it in mini with such great detail is truly an art form. And please keep sharing the pictures!! I love seeing and sharing what everyone is doing in minis. It's one of "funnest" part of mini-ing.
BTW, I'd keep an eye on that princess barbie if I were you. She's smiling and looking all sweet and innocent, but behind your back, she's being *all* wicked and telling tales. My philosophy is never to trust anyone who shops for clothes at Vanna White's garage sales.  Deb >^^< My Website http://www.debsminis.com/ >^^< Lots of eye candy, blogs and tutorials >^^<

Great job on the desk, Glen.

Glen, you did a Totally Excellent Job on that desk! Man, you make it all! Dollhouse, furniture, your own lights too. Baby is so fortunate to have such a wonderfully crafty Dad.
 Your talent is inspiring!

Glen -
I like that you put one large/deep drawer in the desk for Baby rather than a couple of smaller drawers. Is that a dollhouse for the dollhouse next to the desk? I just see the corner of it. BTW, do you pose the Barbie doll for the photos?  Would that be re-arranging your collection or playing with dolls.  Sorry, I have an inquiring mind and I need to know. -Susanne |

I've just seen the post Barbie made in another thread so we'll be having words soon.
She's also due for plastic surgery soon but she doesn't know it yet. (True, no joke) Yes it's a dollhouse for the dollhouse. Can't take any credit for it though. It's a kit I made up several years ago. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. Might cut it in half and sit it on a bench. Cheers Glen |

See Glen I warned you that you had stepped right into the Frying Pan
Cant you tell it's getting geared up. Better call in the troops. I love your desk, looks very good. Now what type of surgery is Barbie going to have? She's already had everything "lifted" Peggi

OMG! LOL! ROFLMREO!!! Too cool Glen!
Of course, the effect might be a bit better if you'd have put her in combat gear! Dean! Here's another member for Silo 13! Linda

Glen -
Barbie as an Action Figure. Now I've seen everything. RFLMBO I don't think that the combat boots will bother her (as long as they match her gown), after all she's used to walking around in stilettos. BTW Glen, does Baby know that you play with her Barbie when she's gone to bed? And Dean (Miniman) - when you're laying out the plans for Silo 13, be sure and make the door clearance high enough for Barbie in her high-heeled combat boots! -Susanne |

The defining silence is me sulking
 , (or cowering  )In my defense, while I wouldn't have liked me mates to catch me climbing under the bushes with the truck and Barbie to take the picture , here is the real picture I took. Count the differences. The rest is down to the wonders of technology. Man you got to be careful what you say around here.  I can get high-heeled combat boots?? cool! Where?? No, wait, let me guess, Vanna White's garage sales |
