Just a suggestion-- if you can clear the top of a bookcase, you can line up a few sturdy shoeboxes on their sides; this makes a second tier on the back, and will hold 2 rows of dolls. That's how I fit 10 dolls on top of my bookcase. Later on, I expanded it with the addition of a shelf-quality board from Lowe's to make even more room--here's a picture that might help--

And the beauty of it is that it's all temporary (nothing to "build-in") and easily removable, and above all--CHEAP! [img]smile.gif[/img]

If this won't work for you, I hope you find an alternative to putting you dollies away. Good luck! [img]graemlins/rose.gif[/img]
