The inspiration for this idea came from seeing 1/6 scale Barbie furniture in GREAT design but atrocious colors.

To this. That's hacking. Mid-century shelf by Amazing miniatures, and black tension lamp from Sindy bought on ebayUK.

Hot pink Barbie Eames chair... Oh Barbie, really?

After, mailer by Delph miniatures.

So my first goal is to extend the width of the house.
