My first blog... forgive me


This was my attempt to turn an entertainment center i got at a thrift shop to a dollhouse... the whole project only was only $15.

Entertainment center i got for $5 at a thrift shop (sorry, its upside down)


I added a shelf and a support piece in the large section

I spay painted the back... temporarily put it up and outlined the interior walls.

I took it down and put wrapping paper in random places with adhesive spray

After painting the inside walls and floor white, i added the wrapping paper to ranom rooms, making sure to color coordinate it with the wall colors.


I found it to be easier to cut the piece oversized then trim it with a utility knife

I added the roof by radomly picking a slope that wasnt too high...


I nailed it together in the middle then marked one inch up on each side for the overhand and set it in place evenly...


The center was 14" inches deep, i made the roof 18" deep, and let the four inches stick out of the front like a porch overhang

I added trim to the edges

Painted stripes to tie in the colors

Attached the back, and



WA-LAA



Its about 4 feet wide and 5 feet tall... not to bad




First blog.... forgive me
