| I've included doll picture here to give crafters an idea of the furniture's size. |
The classic clothespin patio furniture, a bench and a side chair, painted white after hot gluing all of the wooden pieces together. See the detailed photographs below to figure how many dismantled spring pins you will need to make the doll furniture to fit Barbie and Fashionistas. I also used a few wooden skewers to reinforce the crafted pieces.
As you use the hot glue to assemble remember that even this glue needs time to cure in order for it to become strong. Pressure while drying will also speed up the hardening of this kind of glue.
If you elect to use wood glue instead, you may need to hold the pieces together with clamps as you craft.
Finish the wood with acrylic paints or stain, a day or two after gluing everything together.
