Barbie now has a well equipped home but not even bed!

I propose the creation of a wood pink bed for Barbie (made with laminate floor) and a white baby crib (with wood skewers).

For the structure I used 6mm MDF.

The rounded edges are cut with a scroll saw.

Baby Crib: Bottom Board and Top

The bottom board and the top posts are drilled to receive the bars.

I added a scotch tape on the drill bit to locate the drill depth.

Baby Crib: Bars

The bars are cut in skewered picks.

They are glued to the wood glue.

Baby Crib: Assembly and Paint

The elements are sanded and assembled with small wood pin.

Then the bed receives 2 coats of white paint.

Barbie Bed: Cutting

For the bed of Barbie I recovered falls of laminate flooring.

Barbie Bed: Notch

I made notches by letting go beyond the saw blade of a few millimeters.

Barbie Bed: Assembly and Paint

The bottom is made in a 3mm MDF board and the assembly is made with wood glue.

With the fall I made a small bedside.

Here I painted in pale pink.

Barbie Bed: Mattress

For the mattress I cut a piece of foam that I covered with fabrics, glued to the glue gun.
