Dollhouse No.1

Lola's First Dollhouse
I made this house for my niece when she was about four years old. It was done very quickly. Not very much detail. I love how the outside turned out, but not the inside. This was before I started using paper mache for the houses. Just cardboard and paint. The roof is sandpaper. The door doesn't open. She loved playing with it anyways.





Eek, I can't even look at the stairs. It only took me about a week and I only worked on it an 
hour or two at the most each night.

Since this picture was taken, I added another room, just above the livingroom for the kids.









 Eek, do you see the cardboard, I didn't glue the master bedroom to the box,
it was easier to store away. This is why I like using paper mache now in my new dollhouses.
Check them out.

  2. Hey Sera, Lola loves playing with all the dolls but she doesn't play with them so much now, unless we're doing scenes for an episode... she really loves computer games, especially the simms...

  3. Love it. Even though you said there's not much details, it's better than the one I made

    2. I will be trying to get those pictures to you. I don't know how to email a picture, but there's always father who knows how to turn a pocket watch into a super computer! Not really, but he's really good at computers. -Sophie

    1. Thank you so much. I hope so, we joke that I'm making these for me or the both of us, but it's really all for her, and I would love it if she played with these houses with her own children and maybe even make videos for YouTube, it would be nice too if I could also be a part of that :) I could play the old lady who lives down the street....
