How to Make Miniature Dollhouse Desk

Below is a tutorial of how to make a dollhouse desk.
I wish I done more today, but couldn't get into it, I wanted to have the office chair and accessories done too, hopefully I will work on it next Sunday. My niece is getting anxious for this house to be done she wants to create more movies for Youtube, and so do I, now that I found this movie maker, I want to try to create some still motion videos.  I know there's alot of work to be done, especially work I'm not looking forward too like the closet doors...not sure if I should do wire or use magnets...the magnets would have to be powerful so when the top part (2nd floor) is closed, the closets and its contents won't fall. So I'm thinking it will have to be the wire and popsicle sticks. I will also post the how to's for the closet doors.
Thank you for visiting.

Materials needed, wood skewers, popsicle sticks and tupperware..all bought from Dollarama.

Measure skewer sticks to the height you need for your dolls, this desk works for all dolls, Polly Pockets, Monster High Dolls and even American Girl dolls, just make sure you measure and scale it out.
 Cut 8 pieces for the legs



Now cut the rest of your pieces...popsicle sticks will be the shelves...


Now start glueing your pieces together, if you want to paint the wood, 
paint it now. I left it natural.





Cut the tupperware into a rectangular piece for the top of your bases.

I used the dining chair for the picture. I wish I was blogging at the time, I didn't
take any pictures of the chair being made. The base and back is cardboard then paper mache.
Painted blue, because I had some old wall paint and didn't want to do white again. The legs are the mini plastic forks you find at dollar stores.
