This dollhouse is wonderful. It feels like it was created by someone who knows how kids play & it leaves room to get creative and use imagination with planning. Lovely find!
I fell down a Lori hole because of the clothes and accessories quality. They fit my nieces doll house too! If this was 1/6 scale I would be so there. But dang you tempt me! 😅💗
My first doll house was purchased with green stamps and made of metal (yes, way before lots of regulations). The best thing about it? A lot of my little plastic and ceramic figurines fit in it and it had tons of furniture and extras. Seven rooms, garden and upstairs terrace. When you can play across brands and dolls with something, it is that much more fun!
This reminds me of my first ever doll house in the 80s. It was a Sylvanian Family house with a family of little rabbits. There were so many accessories and furniture pieces.
I love this. The dollhouse is cute. The animal figugures are cute. I love that the Barbie mini minis fit great in the dollhouse. I also would love to see a dollhouse like it in 1/6 scale.
I hear you. Even as a small child, I wanted details. My mom bought furniture, made felt cushions, bought miniature items at a local toy store. Because Barbie didn’t make what I wanted.
Toya, I've been a Barbie girl since the 80's as well and this is what i miss most about our awesome toys from that decade. I love this idea so so much!!!❤❤❤
But, if they do that, they can't dictate how we play with our dolls! They can't control our imagination if they give us more ways to play with the dollhouses.
I absolutely love the Honey Bee Acres sets since they are like Sylvanian Family & Calico Critters sets ❤❤❤ They are always great for 1/12 or 1/24 scale dolls, depending on how you set it up. I have a couple of them that were found at thrift stores. Adding more to the collection is always so much fun 😊😊😊
no way.. you just found the perfect mini house! 🥺i love how it’s so realistic, if i had this back when littlest pet shop was a big thing, i would be playing with it everyday! 💚🐸
This little farmhouse is so cute! The creators definitely put some thought into how kids play when they made this. Mattel needs to make some fashion packs for their smaller dolls, and accessory packs too.
That's so cute! I'm sure you'll give your Barbie dream house another go, maybe it needs much better lanterns, beds, something. I'm sure you'll figure it out Toya, see you next time.
Toya, I love your videos! They've inspired me to get back into doll collecting and crafting and all the fun stuff I had fallen out of doing. Not to mention how relaxing they are to watch. Your positivity is radiant! Lately I've been trying to find a use for my medicine bottles and I've hit a wall. I was wondering if you could find any cool ways to upcycle them for doll use maybe as furniture or storage. Thank you for the videos and the fabsome vibes❤
@@eshbena thank you! I love that! The only thoughts I had were barstool or clothes hamper, but I think the bottles are too small, vases and trashcans are so smart!
My daughter loves Honey Bee acres! There’s even webisodes on RU-vid and they just released their fantasy line of little unicorn everyone! 😂❤ Thank you Toya for another great video! Yes, Barbie needs a farmhouse!! We have farm Barbies so why not?!
Froggy, Dollar tree has some outfits for the dolls they carry that fit Chelsea dolls, The adult Calico Critters dolls and probably these minis as well!
I've seen these at my local Walmart and always thought it was adorable with the cutest furniture. Such a great idea to use it for the barbie mini minis
How wide is it fully opened, porches and balconies included? This looks like close to 1/24 scale. Really cute. Love the house, and the kitchen is adorable. I think if you move it the furniture will move around. But that can be tacked down before you lose your toothbrush forever
This house reminded me of Barbie's "magical mansion" released in 1990, besides been the most beautiful of all Barbie's dream houses (in my opinion) with working lights, a beautiful terrace, the bed mattress, bed linen, pillows and cushions, the seats of the sofas and chairs were all made of foam and fabric, with the coordinated print. This house didn't have any furniture "fixed" to the walls/floor, all the furniture was completely in separate pieces, giving many possibilities to decorate the house however you wanted. If you haven't seen it yet, go check some pictures of it online, it's truly incredible. A beautiful overdose of pink tones
This is so cute! I want one 😂 This is so Detailed . They need to make the Barbie house like this. I wish they used that soft plastic like they did in the 60 s😊
Yes, how nice it would be if Barbie houses were more versatile! I have some of the fashion fever room sets from a while back. Always wanted a 1/6 scale house to decorate. One can dream….
I love these little dolls I bought them all! I even went so far as to purchase 2 that I couldn't get here off of aliexpress. I even got the one in the camper. I hope mattel makes more of these miniminis. I also bought a small animal house. I wish I had seen this one. I loved this video, thankyou for showing these tiny dolls.
When I was a kid I used to take Barbie houses and put my animals in them (didn't have Calico Critters growing up, I never even knew about them until I was an adult!) Now watching you take these little Barbies and putting them in a house made for animals, it's like a bizarro world.
So this goes to show that dolls resonate with people even after the demand has quieted down( or in this case, cancelled! Creativity is alive and well in the dollyverse! Loved this video so much. All dolls need to have their own house right?
OMG why didn’t I think of this, this is super creative and having the extra mini minis in there looks so awesome. I might have to steal your ideas here. Thanks for sharing I absolutely love it 🥰🌻
I have been having that living room set in my amazon cart for 6 months waiting for it to be even cheaper than 9.99 - also for my extra mini minis. Ive been using Lori sets for my barbie extra minis
You made the assembly seem easy… I bought it the year it came out and had to cut & sand messy dried glue drips to be able to put it together, plus there were missing parts! Still, I like more than I dislike about it. The packaging is delightful! They are not the quality of Calico Critters, but comparable in size and at a much lower price point. 👍
Hey, ranting aside, you have a point - Mattel has kind of been slacking lately on their details. They used to be so much better! But wow, the Extra Mini Minis are perfect in that house! I love it!!! And the details are awesome! Must resist the urge to do this myself!
😂 yesterday i chose a 3 rooms wood's farm for my project making an house for Kens 😊, the hight fit and i will do a big leaving room :) And i bought an hispanic Ken on chair too and it is amazing how many articulation he have!
If they had been out when I was little I would have been obsessed with all the tiny critters. This line is more affordable than Calico Critters and the playsets seem to be good quality. Also some of the boxes could be made into extra rooms as they already have windows cut out. I don't like the critters as well as actual Calico Critters, but they're not horrible. The unicorn family is cute and unique.
I had the Sylvanian Families frog family and the manor house ( with a chandelier that could actually light up!) in the 80’s or 90’s. I had a lovely study set with a roll top desk, a blotter pad, a fountain pen, a pad of paper, a leather look chair
I saw this sets on my local toy stores, and they look really nice for the coming up release of LPS! Its also affordable than the other brands in my country. I dont have any toys what so ever but Im def going to save up for LPS!
