Two miniature plant stands for the dollhouse garden areas. |
Plant stand tables may be cut to fit any space where these are needed inside of a dollhouse or garden space. I made these plant stands to sit beside metal chairs and so ours are painted in similar colors to go with the doll's outdoor funishings.
The potted plants are made using tiny beads and plastic plants glued inside of the bead openings.
Supply List:
- scrap cardboard
- paper wrapped wire
- transparent ornamental black line stickers
- green teal and black acrylic paints
- two fancy beads
- tiny plastic plants
- white school glue
- bit of tissue paper
- tiny pliers (optional)
- Mod Podge
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Cut a tiny tabletop from cardboard to match the size of the decorative stickers.
- Paint the table top and then stick the sticker on top.
- Cut a narrow slice of cardboard to glue around the tabletop for the edge of the table. Glue this on.
- Turn the tabletop over and attach the wire stand underneath with tape and glue. Let dry
- Paint the table legs black to look like cast iron.
- After everything dries, you may opt for gluing on the "potted plants"permanently or not.
The wire legs are constructed from recycled wire that comes from the market. The stickers are "see through'' with black decorative images only. |
Left, here you can see that the wires are attached underneath with glue. Right, after the glue has dried, I shaped the ends of the legs into tiny curled feet. |
