I want to make my daughter a barbie house…any ideas?

I’m not very handy, but I’d like make her one using a bookshelf or something. I priced the really good dollhouses and they’re anywhere from 0-300. Too expensive.
Any ideas you can give me to make it like a real dollhouse? Materials I can use? Thanks!

My 29 year old GF plays with Barbie dolls…I don't care but my sister insists this is "weird"…opinions?

My GF and I have been together a year. We have a great relationship, a good sex life and though we’ve had our problems we always have worked thing out. We are both very happy and want to move in together soon.

My GF has a HUGE Barbie doll collection, several Barbie houses and about 100 dolls. She keeps them in an extra "toy" room in her house. She PLAYS with Barbies…no I don’t mean in a dirty way…she plays with them like a little kid. She makes clothing, furniture and houses for them, does their hair, takes photos and makes them look as lifelike as possible. My GF is also is blonde, slim, voluptuous and looks and dresses like a Barbie herself. I never asked her why, I long ago accepted this is what she likes. I have my hobbies, she has hers. I even loan her my woodworking tools and have helped her build some dollhouses. She sells them for hundreds of dollars, not a bad hobby if you ask me!

MY NOSY SISTER claims "A 29 year old woman who still plays with Barbie? No offense, that’s weird. Are you sure she didn’t have some childhood trauma?" THEN she went into a tirade saying my GF is "phony, shallow and obviously obsessed with her looks" and that her Barbie "addiction" must be a sign of some mental illness. My sister knows NOTHING about psychology, is opinionated and can’t come up with a a GOOD reason why Barbie collecting is bad other than, "It’s just NOT normal!" My sister is "worried" about me and thinks I should talk to my girlfriend to "make sure" everything is OK. Keep in mind too as far as I know, my GF has no mental problems, had a normal childhood and just likes dolls. She says her hobby is "fun and relaxing" and until now I never questioned her reasons. As far as her wanting to look like Barbie, she is gorgeous no matter what she wears so again I don’t care!

Does my sister have any valid point here? Should I casually ask my GF "What made you collect Barbies?" and see if there is anything I should know? Or should I just keep my mouth shut and be thankful I have found a smart, beautiful woman who loves me? I fail to see how Barbie is a problem or how it could possibly affect our relationship! Does anyone else think it’s "weird" for an adult woman to play with and want to look like Barbie? Why does my sister have such an issue with this?
She does sometimes appear to "go back into childhood" but she CAN control it….another good side is that kids ADORE her and if we ever had any of our own, she would be a great mom!
Oh yeah….forgot to mention…My sister is plus size, is NOT exactly the Barbie-type when it comes to looks and "might" have a little bit of confidence issues about this. Could this be part of her problem?

What should i get for these 8 year olds?

my class is doing some charity work, we have this family and people are buying the kids clothes/gifts, now i wanted to get them the newest barbie dream house, but it’s a little out of my budget (i don’t have a job….)
anyone know of any dollhouses that are less than ? cause that’s my budget.
we didn’t get what the girls want… all we got wer clothing sizes. so yeah, any help? please?
and no i’ve never met or seen these girls in my life
my teacher told us to spend as much as we like.
how would you feel if you were them?

Don’t give me any lectures about "wrong category"

This was a suggested category.
