The headboard was supported between the wall and the prop box, and the footboard was held in place by a toy box.
After making pyjamas for all nine of my small Kaye Wiggs girls... I decided that they had to have a pyjama party, and one can't have a pyjama party without a bedroom, so that meant I needed a bed. So I asked Jan to make a headboard and foot board. He made both exactly the same, in case I needed two beds, but made a separate riser for one, so it could be a higher headboard for a single bed... I was going to use two photo prop boxes beside each other for the girl's bed, but it would also be possible to use three boxes for a taller doll. So he made the headboards the width of a photo box, that way I could use them for either size bed. The headboard was supported between the wall and the prop box, and the footboard was held in place by a toy box. With the bed made... ...and the whole bedroom... ...complete with a play tent... *Note - Is it spelled pyjama or pajama? Well, in American English it's spelled pajama, but for the rest of the English speaking world it's pyjama. With leaves Canadians totally confused, using both spellings, although pyjama is the preferred spelling.

Oh, I see now. I thought that the clothes pins were holding parts of the walls together. I didn't see that they were connected to hanging pictures. Of course now that you point it out I can see it. Duh on me (laugh).

Everything looks so amazing. So in scale. Love to watch your posts and how you make the sets. Beautiful.

Thank you. Yes, definitely sleeping bags on the floor, even though it will be rather crowded. So stay tuned....

So cute! Love the play tent. Did you (I'm assuming YES) make it as well? Comments are closed.
