How to make a doll sized lamp

Alright, here's what most of you have been waiting for... A DOLL SIZED LAMP:) Okay, here it is:
What you will need:
-hot glue gun(works best but a glue bottle works too)
-beads
-a paper of a sort(for the shade part)
-tooth pick
-water bottle cap(any cap works fine really)
Instructions:
1) Decorate your water bottle cap as you want(paint it, duck tape it, ect.)
2)Hot glue a bead to it. The cap is now your base to your lamp.
3) Once the glue dries, hot glue the inside of the bead and stick your tooth pick in it(decorate first if you want)
4) For the bulb: glue a yellow bead to the top of the tooth pick.
5) Wrap a wire right underneath the bulb. Make sure that it is glued into place and that it is sticking out.
6) Make a circle for the shade and fold it in half. Cut to the middle(starting at any point.)
7) Make it into a shade shape(see top picture for this). You can do this by placing the part where you cut over the circle to make it 3d. Trim if needed.
8)Glue together the shade and the wire so that the end of the wire is supporting the shade.
All done:)

How to make a cabinet for your doll

Hey fellow people:) Today I will show you how to make a cabinet for your dolls:) You know, for your kitchen(or bathroom).
First, Find a box that has flaps on the sides(I used an american girl box)
Cut off the top.
Then, decorate it as desired(I put colorful paper on top.)
You can use duck tape, paint, ect.
Get two wooden sticks(these are square-ish) and make sure that they are 
slightly larger than the box(so they can snugly fit in their)
Space them out on a piece of paper
(this will become the shelf so make it the length you want)
Glue them as shown so that they don't show.
Glue them in.
Cut some wire and hot glue it on the front for handles
Tape them to your favorite place(like the kitchen)
You are now done!!!

What you will need:
-red felt

-aluminum foil
-scissors
-hot glue/ hot glue gun

First, draw a circle on the foil. Make sure it is like an inch larger than the size you want your pie to be.
Cut out the circle and make three of them.
Put the three over each other, and then mold it into the pan like thing you want.
Using the tan felt, make a circle slightly larger than your pan. Cut it out.
Push it into the foil and hot glue it in. Trim off the excess.
Cut out a red rectangle four times as big as your pan(about)
Fold it up so that it can fit in the foil
hot glue it in
Cut out four thin strips of tan felt...
