This may be a little ridiculous but I made Maggie a cat bed. I bought this doll bed at Ikea, painted it white, covered a foam pad and made a duvet cover. To make the duvet I used some feathers from a down pillow I had around. A little messy but if you do it in a cardboard box it's not too bad. I hope she likes it!
Remember when she was this little?

This is one of the most wonderful, whimsical things I've seen in a while, beautiful too..................... And Maggie should be in Vogue with that posture and good breeding.................... The perfect model, she's exquisite.

I did that too, and yes, it was very messy. I didn't use a box and had to vacuum my kitchen counters:)
