BARBIE INTERIORS WITH MICHELLE FORD

Over the years I have shared minis of all kinds of scales and the miniaturist who love them. This time I want to focus on one particular Barbie interior designer. I am impressed with her talent and imagination and knew I had to interview her. This designer can take a space and give it multiple completely different looks! 

 Introducing Michelle Ford 

 Hi, Michelle! Great to have you hereTG 

Hello, The Grandmommy! Great to be hereMF

 How long have you been collecting Barbies? TG 

 I've been collecting Barbie for 33 years MF 

 We know there are many scales of dolls. Do you collect any other scales? TG 

 No, I stick to 1:6th scale MF

Your designs are so unique for 1:6 scale. Where do you find inspiration? TG 

 I find inspiration in Design catalogs, YouTube videos and Pinterest MF ''

Many Barbie lovers aren't comfortable sharing their love of dolls and other miniatures with non-collectors and miniaturists. Do you share your hobby with others? TG 

 Yes, I tell and share my love for Barbie with friends and family and they will save things for me, thinking I could recycle whatever it might be!! They also buy me dolls or doll related items for my birthday or holidays, which is sweet of them!!!!MF 

Your level of mini creation is far beyond many miniaturist. Do you offer tutorials for the less experienced? TG

From time to time I will offer tutorials, or if asked for a tutorial I will offer assistance!! MF 

Do you have a YouTube channel where we can view you interior designs and tutorials? TG 

I do have a YouTube channel that I'm not active on, but I'm REALLY thinking I'll be more active on it this year and try to provide tricks and tips, along with tutorials!!!MF 

( Please let us know when you get it going again! )TG
