Hey everyone! ๐
Welcome back to #LearnWithPari โ your favorite space for learning, exploring, and creating fun things at home!
Today, I have a SUPER exciting story to share with you.
What do you do when your bookshelf is old, empty, and collecting dust?
Well… I turned mine into a Barbie Dream House! ๐๐ช
Yep, thatโs right. An ordinary book almirah (or bookshelf) became the most fabulous Barbie mansion ever โ with rooms, furniture, lights, and even curtains! Let me show you how I did it, step by step. You can try it too!
๐ Step 1: The Big Idea!
One day, I was staring at my old wooden book almirah that no one used anymore. And then โ ๐กBOOM โ an idea popped into my head:
โWhat if this could be Barbieโs new home?โ
It had 4 shelves, and I imagined each shelf could be a different roomโbedroom, kitchen, living room, and even a balcony! So the mission began… ๐ ๏ธ๐ โจ
๐งน Step 2: Clean & Clear
First, I took out everything from the almirah and cleaned it properly with a cloth. (Lots of spider webs… ew! ๐ธ๏ธ๐ )
Then I asked my parents to help me move it to a safer spot where I could decorate freely.
๐จ Step 3: Design & Decorate
Now comes the fun partโDECORATING!
Room Themes:
- Top Shelf: Barbieโs Bedroom ๐๏ธ๐ค
- Second Shelf: Living Room with a tiny couch and LED lights ๐๏ธโจ
- Third Shelf: Cute Pink Kitchen with mini utensils ๐ณ๐ฝ๏ธ
- Bottom Shelf: Closet + Bathroom (Barbie needs fashion AND hygiene!) ๐๐
DIY Decorations:
- I used colored paper for wallpapers ๐จ
- Made mini furniture using cardboard ๐ฆ
- Stuck tiny curtains using old dupattas ๐
- Added LED fairy lights to make it sparkle at night ๐
- Printed Barbie posters to decorate her “walls” ๐ผ๏ธ
I even made a lift using a string and a box! Itโs not perfect, but Barbie seems happy! ๐
๐ง What Did I Learn?
This wasn’t just funโit was a learning adventure!
I learned how to:
- Recycle and reuse old furniture โป๏ธ
- Use my imagination to build something new
- Work with craft materials and tools safely โ๏ธ
- Plan and organize like a real interior designer! ๐ฉโ๐จ
