    I'm curious as to how many hours this took. It looks like such a fun project. I wonder if my husband will mind me taking over the living room floor lol.

    I took your project as a role model and luckily found this Melissa & Doug Dollhouse on german market place (I am from Germany) for 45 Euros. Now I want to paint it in ivory. Then make it weatherproof. It will become a bee hotel on a vintage nightstand with plantet drawers. I am so excited about this project. Thank you for the inspiration ❤

    This turned out so cute! I had an old Fisher Price doll house that was pink and blue that I was going to throw away a while back. It was October and I got the idea to spray paint it black and turn it into a haunted house. It turned out so cute. I found some little skeletons at the dollar store that were the perfect size and added some popsicle sticks with the ends cut off. I wrote be ware on them and boarded up the windows. Used Spanish moss in it. My daughter lived in a addition so I took it to her house for porch decorations. 😊

    Bethany this is SO inspiring. I did a fun dollhouse project for my daughter in December of 2020 and I keep thinking about it. You're making me want to do another project. Every detail is perfect, and I can't believe what good condition that house was in when you bought it. Gotta love Marketplace!

    (2023) I am looking at videos to see how others strip the paint off a doll house. I kind of "bumped" into your video. So, I sat down and started watching it. Your doll house turned out beautifully. I love the wooden shutters. The little pillows and blankets are too cute! And the fire place. Wow! You did a great job! Was the entire house and furniture made of wood? Do you still have this doll house? You and your daughter will have soo much fun playing with this house. Thanks again. I enjoyed this video.

    Beautiful House. I love that it is a Melissa & Doug house you rebuilt for a new look... and so kid friendly too... The battery operated lights are fabulous. So no wiring is needed? That process has always just stopped me in my tracks...So where can I buy these lights? And do they just glue or nail onto the ceilings? They are amazing.
