DIY Doll Clothes Caddy

Last post I showed you how I made some doll hangers for my dolls. Now I have finally got the clothes caddy painted so can share photos of how we made it with you.

The wood used for the structure is some board from the back of an old wardrobe.

The base is 34 cms x 20 cms,
the front and back pieces are 34 cms x 10cms. 
the side pieces are 20 cms at the base and height is 49cms, 
DH drew the shape and cut it out for me. He drilled a hole at the top of the side pieces to push the dowel in. 

We glued it together with white craft glue and sandpapered it.

Just checking it is the right size before painting!

I used acrylic spray paint. It took two coats to cover it enough.

For the two knobs on the sides I used two pins from a cork board. I cut off the sharp point and hot glued them to the sides.

The letters were from a box I bought DD a while ago and were already painted. I decided to leave them as they were. The flowers were also with them.

An umbrella, a handbag, shoes and boots and some pretty clothes and the doll is all set!
