Room #6: the girls room!

the beds I got here, and they came with the nightstands used in the master bedroom.

I recovered the mattresses and made some little bedding out of scraps.

I made this rug with some of those plastic triangle webbing shapes and some yarn.

Lots of pushing a needle around and around the loops, and then sewing it together.

It took longer to make than I care to admit but I do like it a lot!

FINAL room. Nursery.

I had some gorgeous Rifle Paper Co. wrapping paper and decided to wallpaper the back wall with it.

It’s a little bumpy in spots because I don’t know how to wallpaper, but it’s cute still, no?

Mr Giraffe is from Hobby Lobby

Jessica also sent me these awesome gold vinyl hearts-I used one on this art piece, and then two more to make a pillow (in the crib)

I painted a rocker (came with the house) with the gilding stuff…and the pull toy is fromΒ  here.

I made that teensy tassel garland on a challenge when I was instagramming my progress-I love it…hehe.

the other frame got gilded and an A framed in it.

I gave the dresser a coral and gold makeover too.

the striped rug was made just like the one in the girls room-just in one large round piece.

HIGH FIVE

Comments

  1. HOLY. MOLY!!

    Honesty time….who has played with the dollhouse the most? LOL My butt would be parked right in front of that. It’s absolutely amazing. High five!

  2. This whole dollhouse is just way too cute! Will you come decorate my house? haha!

  3. Congratulations on an awesome dollhouse! Loving all the rooms, your color schemes, and especially all the little details. I have a childhood dollhouse I’m working on “renovating” (currently taking a break…) ~ thanks for posting such wonderful inspiration! πŸ™‚

  4. Absolutely adorable. Somehow me thinks that the girls may not be “playing” with this (at least not until they’re older)! I have played with my dollhouses way more over 30 than under 18!!

    You’ll have to mosey over to my website and checkout the dollhouse I made! Its for bigger dolls (like 18″) so it is much bigger (stands almost eight feet tall)!! It was so much fun to do…

    Don’t we all have that little girl playing with dolls in us?

  5. I absolutely love this. When my daughter was young, I spent a year redoing an old dollhouse, visiting dollhouse shows. I loved all the crafting and the shopping. Your doll house is just lovely. Well done!

  6. Have to pick my jaw up off the floor! So much work, so much fun!

  7. This is just about the cutest thing I have EVER seen!!
    A big high five back – you totally knocked this one out of the park! πŸ™‚
    I just love your blog πŸ™‚

  8. Just so cute. Please come over and decorate my house.

  9. yay these have been so fun to read! i think you need to start another dollhouse now…like an ultramodern one that houses the best friend family of this family. haha. just because i don’t want it to end!

  10. Oh my gosh JESS….this is so amazing!!
    AMAZING!
    wow.
    can’t love this enough πŸ™‚

  11. Love, love, love this dollhouse. I so want to make one, but I just don’t have the room. :O(

  12. Those rugs! I love it! And the gold accents in the nursery… seriously cute!

  13. Seriously, I wouldn’t let my kids anywhere NEAR that thing. It’s AMAZING. We have a vintage tin one that I’ve got stored in the attic ’cause there just isn’t any room left in this tiny little house. “Someday” I hope to have it out to play with. I mean, for the kids to play with. πŸ™‚

  14. I really really love it! Question: what dolls do you have for it?

  15. Hi – Your Dollhouse looks FANTASTIC!! I bet your girls are loving it!! WHat a beautiful thing you have made for them. Can I ask you two questions – First, what method did you use to adhere the wallpaper to the walls? and also, what was the best way you found to add the artwork to the walls?

    Thanks so much!!
    -Joanne

    • I used modpodge for the actual paper-the stuff in the master is self adhering and removable to boot! I added the artwork to the walls with poster putty.

  16. So sweet Jess!! You finally did it! I bet your girls love it!!

  17. I’ve been building a dollhouse this past year too. I struggled with modpodge and bubbles (I’m using scrapbook paper) so I found that spray mount (by 3m) worked much, much better for me.

  18. Is this a Barbie doll sized dollhouse?

  19. I have GOT to know where you got the little dollhouse that is inside your dollhouse! Someone I know has been wanting one for years and we’ve never been able to track one down.

  20. Where did you get the actual dollhouse itself?

  21. Waaou!! It’s so beautifull!
    I really like what you do, congratulations!!!

  22. Oh my word! This is the most beautiful dollhouse! I just bought my daughter one (actually a bookcase) and came across your blog via Pinterest. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work! And I NEED to find that adorable unicorn eraser!

  23. Beautiful dollhouse! Do you mind sharing what dolls you used? Thanks.

  24. HI! LOVE! ANY WAY YOU WOULD SHARE WHAT THE OUTSIDE OF THE DOLLHOUSE LOOKS LIKE AND WHAT THE DIMENSIONS ARE? I HAVE A HANDYMAN MAKING ONE FOR ME, BEFORE WE MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTRY IN 2 WEEKS!!

  25. My daughter and I are currently working on building her dollhouse and we can upon this and she fell in LOVE with everything. Can you tell me a little more about how you made those rugs? She loved them!

    • thanks! I used a yarn needle and just worked out a pattern on some of those plastic pieces-the ones with square holes. Then looped them together. Sorry I don’t have a tutorial!

  26. Jennifer says

    Hello! I love this so much!! Where did you get the little bear? Thank you!!

  27. This is AMAZING!!! I just finished a dollhouse for my girls, and now I’m inspired to redecorate ?. So fab!

  28. Can you tell me where you got the furniture (dressers and cube book shelf)
    This is amazing.

  29. I love the dollhouse!! I am curious what type of dolls are living there? Thanks!!
