Here's how I put together the room I use for photographing my doll beds: I'm really big on Foam Board, so I start off with a giant sheet which I put sticky, kitchen drawer contact paper on (looks like wood flooring). I usually set it up on top of my bed, due to lack of space, and the light that comes in from the window is good for pictures. Two more pieces of Foam board, which I've cut out sections of to install Doll house windows in one, and a hole for my fireplace to go in the other: I got my fireplace from a Hallmark store for $35.00, it was on display with some stuffed Christmas dolls. It has a bit of a large backside, hence the hole in the foam board. It came with candles:
My plants I get at Wal-Mart, Home Goods or Ross and my end tables are all pencil holders or little wooden trunks I got from a crafts store: I also cover the white foam board with sheets of wallpaper from wallpaper sample books I got from 'Wallpapers To Go' for free. I covered this wall with black poster board, and cut out a hole for the fireplace. The curtains I made out of sheer material, the curtain rods are actually wood, shiska-bob (sorry can't spell that) rods that I cut in half.
My paintings I got on line. I've changed my website to give credit to the artists so there shouldn't be infringement. I print them out and paste them onto black, gold or silver construction paper or poster board:
The brick wall I got from Jim's Printable Mini's: And with a little light on the other side of the window coming in: I can get pictures like this:
The Fireplace behind her I made myself out of foam board, a picture of a fire, and poster board covering it. I LOVE the dioramas I've seen from everyone else posted here. I wish mine could be as detailed, but I have to take this down and put it back up every few days and all of it already fits into 3 boxes as it is. My husband has been very understanding with the wall of white storage draws we have in our master bedroom.
This is my sewing nook in that same room:
Thanks for looking! I really appreciate it.
