How To Make: Dollhouse Miniature Metal Pipes

A few months ago I created some miniature Barbie/1:6 scale metal pipes and decided it would be perfect to give a tutorial on how to make them! It is very easy and cheap to create!

Here`s what you will need:
- A paintbrush
- A straw (bigger size straw works better for 1:6 scale dolls, smaller size straw is better for 1;12 scale dolls)
- Silver Metallic Paint, I used Silver Metallic Puffy Paint, but pretty much any silver paint will work.


First, cut the straw into 3-5 pieces. Next, paint the straw pieces with the silver metallic paint & used the paintbrush to give it more texture. You can use a toothpick or tweezers to hold the pieces when painting if you don`t want to get too messy

Repaint the straw pieces as many times as needed to make it fully covered in metallic paint. Finally, let it dry. You now have miniature metal pipes for your dollhouse!
Here`s how mine turned out, it was pretty fun to make!
What do you think of them? Let us know in the comments!😀😀😀
