Cardboard Dollhouse Start to Finish

- I only used materials I found here at my home in making this project. The only expense was the glue. I started with a Wall-Mart cardboard box. This video is an overview of the entire project from beginning to end for those who like to see the project in a nut shell. If you have questions about specific things please go to my Playlist "Paper & Cardboard Creations" There I have a series of short videos that will take you through each phase of this construction. My next series of videos will be constructing the furniture, curtains, kitchen cabinets, and other accessories and then finally making the doll family that will live in this house.
The house is not perfect because it was started without a plan and done rather hastily. I see this project as a learning one. My next house will be planned and scaled properly with far greater details.

The past few days I’ve been thinking about how I would like to make a dollhouse and then video showed up in my feed this morning. 😊😊😊
Try it. It’s a lot of fun
Did you make it?
@@VvelvvetLammb Real life kind of imploded and I didn’t have time to even think about it. 🙁
Definitely on the agenda for 2024 though.
@@TheArnaa when if not now ☺️ make it badly out of cardboard, who cares! Have fun!
Debra, this cardboard dollhouse is beautiful. You did a wonderful job. I also like to build my own Barbie Dream Houses from MDF and cardboard boxes. They are OOAK and totally unique. No one has one like mine. I find it a very satisfying hobby. I have been a collector and crafter of Barbie/Ken for 45+ years. I limit myself to 15 dollhouses. I eventually give them to children of my friends. Your dollhouse is BEAUTIFUL. Keep on creating and enjoying!!!
Oh yes. I do have plans for making more. Right now I am working on a log cabin for my grandson.
That was a joy to watch because it was real- there were no strict instructions or boring moments - I was in awe n entertained at the same time. Your cats are too cute !
I am glad you enjoyed it and yes the cats are fun. They entertain me daily.
Love your cat. They really do help! 😂
Well they did show me areas for improvement
Cats do make the purrrefect inspectors
They certainly do
The build looks basic and simple but it solves a lot of the problems i have building my own dollhouse. Thank you
I am glad to hear it
Good Job!
Thanks!
Amazing ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
It's so awesome ❤
Thank you but I think it pretty ordinary. My next house will have awesome details.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
The cat is a paid actor 😂
Yes, she earns her keep but she’s not acting. This is her normal self
Asombroso! Preciosa casa!!!
Muchas gracias
Wow!! I want one now! Great job my lady..
You should try it. It is quite fun!
so many details , exquisite.
I have been thinking of making my own dollhouse! Thank you for sharing! You did an amazing job!❤
Do it. You will have so much fun
❤
despite not having a front door that was an awesome video to watch. I learned a lot just bay watching that.
Great now it's your turn to try. It really is quite fun.
@@DebraCarmona well I have not gotten the room yet but I want to turn a bookcase into a doll house. I am starting to plan it out.. I plan on cutting doors and windows in the wood ect. erecting walls ect. but I have not found the perfect bookcase to turn into a doll house. I don't want it too big just big enough. thanks for responding. love the video. will sub to your channel if not already.
@@pipermoonshine I have done that too in years past. A bookcase makes a good dollhouse
@@DebraCarmona I hope so.. have so many plans for. Hope I can start on it soon enough
Stunning. Absolutely amazing ❤
Thank you so much!
Muito linda essa casinha como eu queria ter uma dessa😍😍😍😍🏠🏠
Você consegue. Confira minha playlist Dollhouse Creations onde mostro cada passo de como fazer.
You did such an amazing job. I'm inspired 😊
I'm so glad! I love knowing that I have inspired someone. Try it. It is really fun
Wow!! So good!
Thank you!! You can do it
This is lovely, I subscribed after finding your cardboard staircase which I was looking for to make some outbuildings that I want around a Tudor house that I am about to make (kit of Historically accurate Tudor house at 1:15th scale). I intend to make a cobbled or flagged yard with some sheds and needed a stair to a hayloft. Its pretty ambitious but I believe in the stuff you guys call chipboard (its MDF here, chipboard is a harder heavier thing alltogether) as I'm a long time fan of Thicketworks who shows how to make it as solid as wood by applying thin superglue!
Cool. Do you make video and show your work? I want to make a Victorian house next and much larger
It is just lovely 🥰
Thank you
You are welcome😍
Awesome job!!! Stupid UA-cam will let me comment but not put a like on here! Anyway, love this video!
That is strange. But I thank you for taking the time to comment. Commenting helps my algorithms.
Está maravilhosa 👏
Muito obrigado
;lovely house, but i think th cat thinks its is lol
She was interested in the dollhouse from the beginning but after I hardened the surface it no longer felt like or smelled like a cardboard box so she lost interest in it and no longer bothers it. I did make her a three layer cardboard cubical which she loves to scratch or hang out in.
That was fantastic Debra. I will subscribe and check out what other videos you have. Would love a few measurements and as I am just starting off is that a 1:12 scale? Was there two layers of cardboard used for the walls. Great job. Cheers Robyn ❤😊
When I started this project I didn't pay much attention to scale but it is close to a 1:12 scale. My next one will be more uniform. I considered this one a practice one.
Replying again since I missed answering one of your questions. I wish I had used two layers thick on the interior walls or used two layers of matboard a much sturdier board. The exterior does have two layers of cardboard.
@@DebraCarmona Thanks Debra. I was going to make my project with one thickness of cardboard but after looking at your video, I thought that looks sturdier. Thank you for getting back to me. Cheers Robyn 😊
Hi! So to make it sturdy? You just added layers of cardboard? No paper mache needed?
Basically yes 2 layers or more will make cardboard sturdy. It is even stronger if the corrugated grain of cardboard go in perpendicular directions. Also at the end I hardened the surface with a mixture of wall joint compound and glue. I did put paper on the outside edges to cover the rough edges for a more smooth finish before the slat boards which were made of mat boards cut into 1" strips.
It would’ve been nice if you would’ve shown the construction of the actual house not just the details
This video is a review of the overall project. If you will look through my playlist “Dollhouse Creations” you will find several videos that explain every individual part of this project and show the construction, the materials, etc. etc.
If you're making this out of scrap cardboard how do I keep the creases from showing through just prime them?
I added layers, 2 for the outside and then with the siding added you don't see any of the folds, seam, or creases. For the inside I used wall paper to cover the cardboard. If your still worried about creased showing before adding wallpaper mix 1 part glue 1 part wall compound to smooth out the surface. Apply with a smooth flat paint brush. When dry you can sand it. Hope that helps.
How do you treat the cardboard so it doesn’ warp?
Check my playlist to see further details as I am not sure which part of the project you speak of. I share more details in the other videos. This was just an overview of the whole project.
Is this part 2?

Напишите из чего обделка дома
Основная конструкция изготовлена из картона. Я использовал матовую доску, которую художники используют для обрамления картин или картин. Я нарезал полоски картона, чтобы сделать каркас и внешний сайдинг. Стены я украсила образцами обоев из книги образцов. Надеюсь, это ответит на ваши вопросы.
