Give Your Child The Very Best -- Give Them Amish Doll Furniture
If your child -- or you! -- is tired of the cheap looking plastic furniture for their dollhouse, why not take a step up? You can purchase Amish doll furniture that will probably fit right into your existing dollhouse structure -- and the Amish are known world-over for the impeccable quality of all of their furniture.
When I look for Amish doll furniture, I try to purchase furniture that has been produced by so-called old order Amish craftsmen (not just items made to look like this furniture, by non-Amish craftsmen). An interesting feature of Amish doll furniture is that it is made in wood shops where no electricity is used whatsoever. Genuine Amish doll furniture, therefore, represents a very high level of craftsmanship, and is quite valuable as a result.
Right now I am looking at a lovely piece of Amish doll furniture: it is a miniature swinging cradle, constructed out of solid oak hardwood. This cradle measures 1 foot wide and 2 feet long. It retails for just under $150.
Another great looking piece of Amish doll furniture is a little doll stroller. It too is made of solid oak, and will transport a doll of up to 18 inches. Among the Amish, doll furniture making has been developed into almost an art form -- and that craftsmanship and artistry really shines through on this piece. Retailing at just under $130, is a tremendous value. If you are in the mood to do a little furniture construction yourself, you can purchase an Amish doll bunk bed. Made of finished plywood, this Amish doll furniture piece has been left for you to paint or stain on your own. The pieces of this bunk bed simply slip together and lock into place. Simply add little glue, sand, paint and this piece of Amish doll furniture will be ready to use. Cost? Around $50. If you want to take your doll to school, you can purchase a lovely old-fashioned doll school desk. It is also constructed out of solid oak for durability and stands about 9 inches high. It retails for around $50, and this Amish furniture doll piece would look great in any child's bedroom or play room. And when it's time to put your doll asleep, you can be sure it will get a good nights rest if it is sleeping in a cute-looking doll bed. This Amish doll furniture bed, made from Oak, has a heart-shaped cutout headboard, and looks just like its larger-sized cousins that you sleep on! The overall size of this Amish doll furniture bed is about 17 inches in length and 9 inches wide. At just under $60, I can't see any doll lover being able to resist it.
