Jack,
Nice, what was the response? A happy little girl I hope. What materials did you use? Andalso, what was the paint? I may be making a similar shelving unit for my little guy this fall. (Right now it's a sandbox and swing set)

As far as manly - you're being a dad, what's more manly than that. :D

"Manly" is right, as you are da MAN! And I'll bet da MAN made one little girl real, real happy! :D (Now, if you were building one of those for your shop, I might have a few questions.... :eek: ) Nice job on both pieces, Jack! :cool:

A very happy little girl she was. The dollhouse is about 97% MDF, and the table is all pine with a chunk of Melamine for the top. Most of the paint was hobby paint, but for the Pink, I found a quart of mistinted Behr paint at HD for $1.

Well I think being good to our little girls is very manly! I am sure she was very thrilled.

Was that dollhouse from the plans in Wood Magazine from a couple of months back? I would like to build something similar if I can ever get the basement done

It was from the plans in Wood Magazine a couple of months back. I am not the most creative person in the world, but I am pretty good at following a recipe.

Hi Jack,

Very nice job! I need to get the paint on the PB Kids shelves I made from looking at the catalog.

Jim,

The shelves for the garage you use the castle top! ;)
