Felicity and Elizabeth dolls (American Girl) are being
retired at the end of December.
Elizabeth's bed is lovely (above) but quite expensive.
Jeff ordered the bedding and then made the bed and the mattress yesterday.
Katie was the painter.:)
Here is the completed bed and one happy little girl! I was so impressed! The bed is about $70 in the catalog and Jeff made it for around $10.
Sweet dreams, Elizabeth... Wonder what they will make next?

oh my, how WONDERFUL! I love that they did something like that together.....and the end result is stunning :-)

WOW!! He did an amazing job!! I love it! So so cute!
ADORABLE! I have American Girl dolls from when I was younger but they did not have all the fun accessories. :)What a great handyman you got there, and cute painter! Love, Val!
That is fabulous! Jeff could make a fortune in the doll furniture business! I love that they did this project as a team! What a great memory! That's a family heirloom now:)
Wow...they did a SUPER job!
Lori, what a beautiful bed!! It is amazing how much AG charges for these items and how inexpensively they can be made. They have to make $$ too I guess. My oldest daughter, Megan had a Kirsten doll and she had someone in the woodshop at school make her a bed and we painted and stencilled it just like the one in the catalog!
Now, that is unbelievably cool! It turned out fantastic!
very cool... love the idea of making your own :)
