04-FS-152 - Barbie Doll House Victorian Style
A FREE SHEET of 18 x 24 inch tracing paper is included when you purchase our woodworking plan! Barbie houses are not very common to begin with, a Victorian style Barbie doll house is RARE. This completed project is so stunning we invite you first to view the slideshow pictures first. We know this is a huge undertaking for a woodworker and it is a space taker. The hours on this project have been overwhelming. If necessary the house can separate into four sub assemblies to move through standard doorways. The prototype process and getting to the finished product along with putting it all on paper has consumed months of work, nearly half a year! We also are planning developing the interior with furniture and decor. This would be the gift of a lifetime for a young daughter or granddaughter. And with the unending success of Barbie and all the collectors out there, we think this house would be a great backdrop for their collection. And just as an architectural piece, it could have other display uses. We have done something different with this plan. Our printing company has access to glossy stock so we have been able to include several photos with the plan. The project is so involved that I thought this would help the woodworker visualize the project much more. One 11 x 17 sheet has three very large photos on one side and the initial text and another photo on the opposite side. Also we have worked about a dozen more small photo images throughout the plan that may help in subassembly building. We will not have instructions on the paints used because we mixed as we went along, deciding on colors that appealed to us.
Until right now, Victorian style Barbie doll houses have been non-existent. We would like to unveil this masterpiece of a woodworking project to you. This amazing project is the ultimate dream home for young and young-at-heart Barbie doll collectors. This woodworking plan will guide the woodworker through all steps of the building process. The rear of the house is open for full access to seven spacious Victorian rooms ready for decorating just as Queen Victoria may have done herself! In the near future we will be developing woodworking plans for doll sized Victorian furniture. The spaces include a parlor, kitchen, bath, bedroom and childrens playroom. The dormer windows add architectural interest inside and out. The first floor turret is enclosed and accessible from the inside. The second floor turret is open with access from the upper porch. Patterns for the Gingerbread trim are drawn full scale including the roof top railings, fence and porch swing too. Other options which you have a choice in building include grid work around the base and two styles of bay windows. Also included is information for making replica stained glass windows. There is even a plan included for the display table the doll house is set up on.
About this product: The majority of the pieces are drawn full scale. Basically, those that can fit on the 11 x 17 inch paper stock. The house walls and some of the larger features are scaled down with dimensions and angles shown but all the gingerbread, shingle and molding patterns and other trim are mostly full size images. It is not available as a downloadable plan.
