    definitely do the one of a kind if its afffordable

    also if you are after clothes check ebay and search bulk barbie clothes. I refuse to pay more for an outfit for a barbie dollothan I pay for clothes for the kids! I got the girls 30 dresses and about 50 pairs of shoes for $30 and so far they are standing up to rough little hands (they are a year old now) plus te kids ffind it easier to dress the dolls in than the barbie branded clothing.

    I'd get it made too! My girls have the one my dad made me - he is not handy at all so it was a massive effort, interestingly it is really plain and not huge but they seem to love it more than the commercial one they have! xx

    I still have a home made christmas present from when I was 4. I would go for a quality product. The dolls house can evolve if the girls ever get over barbie, you can also redecorate the rooms (off-cuts of wallpaper or material) etc.

    I would go for the wooden one. My mum still has the dolls house my dad made for me when I was a kid and now my son and nieces play with it. Still going strong.

    Ok so we are getting it made and it's only going to cost me $200
    I've asked if possible for:
    Lounge, Dining, Kitchen, Bedroom, Bathroom & Garage with if possible a bench in the kitchen & possibly a cupboard for some of barbies shoes

    I don't know any specifics regarding design BUT my uncle has advised the size and it really is going to be barbies mansion

    House: 800(w)x400(d)x1350(h)
    Garage: 500(w)x400(d)x600(h)

    With him saying it like that i am not sure if he has built the garage seperate or if it is attached to the house - that would make the house 1300 wide so it would be both longer and taller than DD1
