Table

The table was super easy! I cut two 2x6s long enough to accommodate the dolls sitting on the couch. Then, we took the cut-offs and nailed the two 2x6s to the cut-offs. It was all made from scraps, so it was FREE! 
And there is the finished product!

Artwork

Next, we worked on artwork for the walls. 

We had an old art book that had small pictures in it and chose three we liked. 


We chose "The Rehearsal" by Manet, "Mona Lisa" by Di Vinci, and "Waterlily Pond" by Monet. 

Then, Selah painted Popsicle sticks black and let them dry. 
We trimmed each picture with a little white space around them. 
Then we hot glued the Popsicle sticks in a frame, overlapping when necessary. 

After trimming the excess white, they were done for now. 

This project cost $0, as everything we used, we already had on hand. 





American girl ottoman

For the ottoman, I started with a square of 2x4. 
I then padded it with two layers of batting and wrapped it up neatly. I did it in a contrasting fabric from the couch. 

It literally took five minutes to complete, and I used a small scrap of wood and fabric, so the cost was $0. 

That was simple!
