Barbie house hubbie built

The girls looooove it.It doesn't have all the stuff in it right now.We are still putting stuff together.But it has everything from a playroom for kids to a laundry room lol.It needs som more painting done on it amd all the accesories and furniture to be put in.It is 4ft by 34 inches.He painted it the fushia pink color then went over it fast with white.He says it looks more handmade and loved that way.Ok well if he says so lol.

very cool! I like the whitewash effect, it's contempory!

I had a barbie house with an elevator as a kid....we grew up poor, so that was a nice gift now that I can look back and appreciate it. Maegan got 2 non barbie dolls and then ken as prince charming in the carraige with a horse for christmas from her aunt and uncle, luckily we don't see them that often, cuz it's packed and put away. thankfully even dh agreed with me that she was too young(she'll be 3 in march)
