Hi All! Today I am sharing and Up-Do of a dollhouse table and chair. By changing a few parts and giving a fresh paint job, these pieces went from drab to fab! Lets get started.
I purchased this 1:12 scale wooden table from our local Dollar Tree for one dollar and also a chair for one dollar. I used wooden table legs that I bought from Miniaturecrush on Etsy. Also I used wood glue and popsicle sticks and acrylic crafts paint.
I decided that I like the curved piece but the square legs had to go.
After heating the table in the microwave for 15 seconds the glue softened and the legs came off easily. I also wound up taking the curved pieces off because the were way off center. I glued the curved pieces and new table legs back in place.
By using a ruler and the back edge of a knife I made indentions to replicate separate pieces of wood on the table top.
I cut pieces of popsicle sticks and coffee stir sticks to make a bottom shelf for the table.
Almost looks like a totally different piece of furniture!
I gave the bottom two coats of celery green and the table top two coats of buttermilk paint.
I decided I just had to girly it up with some peach colored roses.
I also went over the piece with watered down brown paint for age and definition.
The chair I just painted and added roses.
Thanks for looking!
FYI this charming duo will be for sale in my Etsy shop Peppysis soon!
