This miniature egg chair swing is a great furniture piece for a doll-sized patio, study, or den. It is made from string and glue using a party balloon. Sized for 6:1 fashion dolls, the finished dimensions of the chair itself are 7″ x 6″ x 4″. Can be painted to suit. The chair cushions and chair stand will be available in subsequent posts.
