Mini makeover: washi stairs

I've been racking my brains for more ways to use washi tapes for my mini's.

I liked the lampshades from the 52 week challenge but I needed MORE! (Washi fetish may be getting out of hand...)

Then thanks to the wonders of Pinterest I spotted a full sized staircase makeover and the mini light bulb in my brain went on! 

What you need:

10 minutes

Washi tape

Scissors

Staircase

It was very straight forward, you're literally just sticking tape onto the steps!

Keep edges neat by using scissors rather than just tearing. I found the tape wasn't amazingly sticky but did the job. If you want a more permanent feature you could seal with varnish as you would with decoupage? 

Anyway, that's my Mid week make over. 

Washi fix in the bag! Woop woop!

Mini Media: Life size Barbie dream house!!!

Incase the spectacle of the giant doll's house in Grand Central NYC, wasn't enough have a squizz at THIS!

The Barbie dream house experience. That's right girls and boys, we're going to Barbie's house!! Yeeeeeaaah!

Yes, those are giant pink poodles greeting you at the door. 

Un-suprisingly I was heavily into Barbie when I was little so my excitement at the prospect of actually being able to pop over to her life size doll house is BIG! (My 6 year old self would have exploded!)
There is also one opening a little closer to home in Berlin, Germany, though it has apparently been met with protests from some feminists. Sigh.
Can a girl not be forward thinking, supportive of equality and STILL like pink and play with fashion doll's?! I say yes, so let's tale a moment to revel in the pure un-adulterated PINK-NESS of it all.

You can tour life sized kitchens, dressing rooms, view a 350 strong collection of collector's dolls and even ride the dream house elevator and delve into Barbie's closet !!Squuuueeeeeeeee!

Explore the interactive kitchen.
