Apartment Samantha - A room divider used as a closet!

Hello Everyone!


Well, I have finally gotten around to

making a room divider.
Necessity is the key factor here!
Check for the TUTORIAL later 
as it will take me awhile.

I was running out of room

of where to hang her clothes.

It sure is funny to think how your dolls

can outgrow their apartment or dollhouse!
But Sam did!

 I only had 2 of these french doors, but figured that
they will do the job well. 
YEAH!!
A divider screen was very much needed here.

 This divider will stand behind the sofa.
The side where

you see the coat will be like a coat closet.
The side closest to

you will be to hang some clothes.

See I already have a hanger there that I made. 

One thing about my hangers is - THEY ARE UGLY!!
Must make some better ones.

 The shelf is coming in handy already. 
I intend for the shelves to hold whatever

I can cram up there.
Maybe some necklaces

or a pair of shoes need to dangle from one

of the top corners of the divider.

 I do not know what life the little red

thingy was before I acquired it.
For me

it serves as a faux red stole.
Probably

something to do with Sam's hobby of

Mardi Gras stuff.

 I will not be leaving out the white side.
Eventually

I will cram some stuff here as well. 
Right now I do

not have anything to cram there.

Here - the divider has been placed behind the sofa just

as I intended to put it.  
It looks good there - don't you think!

But soon I might end up removing something from her

apartment to make room for it in her bedroom. 
You never

know because my apartments keep changing.
And I like that.

Sam just finished hanging up her little black sexy dress.

I hope this inspires you to take a couple of

doors and make you a divider for a closet.

Am glad you stopped by to visit Sam!

Come again,
Conny

Apartment Widow Sarah - Meet Widow Sarah and her daughter Hannah

These dolls were also made

by me in the 1990s.

These were also made by kits.

The kits only contained the

head, arms and legs.

Meet Widow Sarah and her daughter

Hannah.

Widow Sarah has some age on her.

Straight off the bat - you notice

the glue on the front of her scarf.

I believe that I had something there,

that possibly fell off.

Although I cannot remember what

that was now!

You can also see a little glue in

her silver upswept hair!

She is still pretty!

I made her busty and a little bit

of weight on her.

She is dressed in a blue knit dress.

MEET WIDOW SARAH

More glue to be seen in her hair.

More glue in her hair.

Body not in great shape either.

Still more glue in her hair.

Needs changing.

Widow Sarah is supposed to be the normal

height as all my other dolls.

But she isn't.

The pipe cleaners were not wrapped so it

left her legs to dangle and made her shorter.

Needs fixing!

Widow Sarah's scarf has more glue on it.

And a spot is on her dress.

Needs new clothes!!

Hannah is the only daughter of Sarah

and Edward.

She watches over her Mother.

I never got around to making hair for Hannah.

I got very busy that year.

Her dress is still pretty and has not yellowed

at all.

I might re-use the gown when I make her over.

MEET HANNAH

She is still pretty.

These little kits were very cheap,

but the faces they had were so

pretty.

Under her skirt, she is not made very well.

This is the only doll I tried wrapping.

And I wrapped her in pantyhose!

I tried also to give her a stomach, but

that didn't work, as you can tell.

I did paint her shoes a mauvy pink to match

her dress.

She needs fixing.

Back of dress is still good, no glue spots

from the ribbons.

Thanks for stopping by!
