Dollhouse from the dresser
To make a dollhouse does not necessarily purchase expensive materials. After all, you can use unnecessary furniture and other designs. We suggest simply redoing the old dresser.
For work you will need the following:
- chest of drawers;
- saw for wood;
- brush;
- glue;
- putty;
- sandpaper;
- paint white;
- big brush.
Before starting to work, we recommend that you determine the size of the dolls for which the house will be made. To do this, measure the height of the boxes.
In this case, it is best to leave only two floors. To do this, carefully remove excess partitions so as not to damage the walls.
Since an empty space appeared on the site of the partitions, it must be filled. To do this, apply glue and put on top of suitable wooden slats. Leave the design to dry.
Fill the empty space and damage to the dresser putty. After the construction has dried, we grind the surface to make it smooth. We paint the house with white paint.

Prepare materials:
- plywood;
- saw;
- drill;
- pencil;
- ruler;
- construction stapler;
- glue;
- wheels;
- paint brown and gray;
- primer;

- brush.
The process of creating a house is very exciting. But at first it is very important to make a sketch of it, taking into account the size that suits you. Use the saw to cut out the necessary parts.
On some of the details we make the markup, where exactly the windows and doors will be located. Mark them with a drill.
Cut out the doors and every window. This is a laborious process, but the result is worth it.
Cut the bars to make a frame on the windows. We connect the parts with a special stapler and fix with glue.
