The American Girl Doll Company makes a very nice wardrobe for their dolls. It's reportedly the size of a small nightstand, painted white and comes with some assembly required for a mere $349. Possibly a great deal if hubby didn't have a few cool tools and some spare oak.This is our version, minus the doors of course. Hubby built it this past weekend and I just went out and stained this portion. He will be making the doors this weekend and I need to hurriedly get some appropriate doll hangers so we know what size of "closet rod" we can install. The side shelves were built based on some simple storage trays I purchased. I will be making the storage board for the inside of the big door and the little fabric pockets to hang on the inside of the small door this weekend.
Our plan is for her to use this now to help hold her doll and clothes. Maybe in 12 years, she will want to take it to college as an actual night stand. It's solid oak so it should be a classic piece that will last.
