Hello! I am working on my dollhouse kitchen, and I want to add beams to the ceiling. I heard balsa wood is good for pretty much everything. Would this be a good choice of materials? What is the best place to buy it? The picture shown is something I found online that is something like what I want to do.

You will want to go with Basswood.  Balsa is too soft and will not work well for this project.  You can find basswood at any hobby store.  It can also be purchased online from Amazon and most any miniature store.  You will need to decide what size you want the "beams" to be to achieve the desired affect.  Most basswood strips come in either 22" or 24" lengths and any variety of width and heights.
