"Dream Prettily": The Skipper Dream Room

When Lori came to stay over Thanksgiving, I had put some pretty "new" (thrifted, vintage) sheets on the guest bed.
I love them - but they won't fit on our bed, so the guest room got lucky:
The colors on the sheets made me think of this picture from a vintage Barbie magazine I have:
"If It's Your Own Room, Make It Pretty..." - yes, well - that goes for any other room where somebody will sleep, right?
"Any more ways to dream prettily?"
Skipper had a few ideas - and a room of her own...
"And it's a Dream!"
(I love it, myself.)
I wish I had one of these; it's adorable!
It's ready to travel, just fold it up and tote it anywhere you wish to go and play.
Hey - bring it over here, if you'd like!
I'll play with you!
Colorful and fabulous:
I adore all of the details that the designers at Mattel put into this :
Look at the furniture - and those built-in shelves!
I want pink and red built-in shelves in MY room.
(I've already got plenty of my own books and albums, LOL!)
I borrowed some of the pictures on my post today from the blog "Two Crazy Crafters".

That is really cute! I've never seen one before. Like the record player.

Skipper! I love this post! I had a second-hand fold-out Barbie house for a long time. I loved it. I miss the old Barbie and Skipper. Imagine how "groovy" PJ's room/house would have been!

I always loved doll houses, Skipper is a lucky little doll!
