Last photo of the doll closet. The ribbons got a good wash before being put back on. The magnets on the doors are really strong, so it’s actually pretty hard to open without the extra ribbon to pull on.

Washed the ribbons that came with the doll dresser. Originally, these ribbons were just double knotted to hold onto the shelf. I decided to add some flower beads for extra flourish!

So it took longer but that was thanks to the shitty, rainy and cold weather. Otherwise it turned out quite well.

This doll closet was discarded on the side of the road. It wasn’t in horrible condition but it was pretty dirty and had melted candy stuck inside. A little cleaning and paint and… it’s as good as new!

Passend zum Frühjahrsputz:
die Caritas nimmt jeden Wochentag ab 9h bis 1630h Spenden für den Fairkauf an. Der Fairkauf ist ein sehr günstiges Sozialkaufhaus in Freiburg und Umgebung. Möbel, Kleidung, Spiele, Elektrogeräte. Auch zum selber stöbern lohnt es sich.
Wo noch laptops, smartphones, ältere Computer, Consolen , Retrogeräte hat, kann die dem @cccfr oder @3rz Retrorechenzentrum zum anfassen anbieten.
