American Girl Doll furniture
I have seen some neat stuff done here by other folks making beds, chairs, etc. for the American Girl dolls. I'm in that situation now having a granddaughter that wants beds for her dolls. My question is what tools and techniques are best to make smaller scale projects? I don't have a scroll saw but have the WW basic tools (not all though). I'd like them to look decent and hold up to kid use (read abuse). Advice, pics, dimensions, materials and tips are all welcome.

I've made several pieces for my Grnddaughter for her dolls. I used standard woodworking tools that I would for making large projects, just made smaller parts.
   Basically you can just scale down plans for real furniture with simplified joints since the strength issues are less with doll firniture.
