Me too - I'm British though (still in the UK) and I'm not sure we have anything like those dolls here! I've got grown sons so it was cars and stereotypical boys' toys when they were growing up!

Me looking through the comments... OHHH MY GORSHHHHH ADORABLE AMERICAN GIRL
Absolutely jaw dropping Kathryn! It looks magical with the lights on at night and those little girls are so blessed to have you build this wonder for them ! Enjoy how you create with such simplicity ❤️
Best video! ❤️ Made me so nostalgic! I had the Samantha doll and would've loved a house like this for her! Lucky girls! 💕 I made my husband watch this. We are definitely doing this in a couple years for our daughter! Thank you!
You’ve really outdone yourself!😍 My daughter watched this with me and we are in love with the outcome! Thanks for the inspiration.
Omg Kathryn! This has got to be ur best creative work so far! I could totally see your excitement throughout this project! Such amazing ideas! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! I love this! I’m so keeping this in mind for when I have kids. This seems like the way to go for any type of doll house. The contact paper really makes it incredible!
*WOW! THIS IS AMAZING! How fun!!! You are such a crafty person & always have such amazing ideas!!!
Wow! That dollhouse is amazing! Such a great job. The little girls are going to enjoy playing with it. Their Mom is blessed to have a creative friend like you. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a wonderfully blessed day. PS - Owen likes it too ❤.
That is absolutely adorable. What a nice piece to have in a playroom/bedroom. I'm sure the girls will enjoy that for years. Great job. Love all the decorations.
Okay, you TOTALLY outdid yourself on this! Awesome job!!!❤️❤️❤️
Wow this was so creative! Great way to store all the accessories. I loved the Windows, the picture frames in the laundry room and how you used the mini organization drawers as dressers. I had been relieved my 6 year old hadn't shown an interest for American Girl dolls, like her big sister has, years ago (less coins😆). But now I'm hoping she might, so I can do this and play with it myself! Thank you for sharing. This was so fun to watch!
I have cold chills!!! This makes me feel so nostalgic my daughter would LOVE this and she's only 3!! Omgoodness Kathryn you have seriously outdone yourself! I'm definitely sharing this! Xoxo 💞💖❤❤❤
I love everything about this! My little girl is 17 now and it makes my heart happy to see such an awesome dollhouse! You guys did great! ❤
Ahh this is so cute that would be my dream if I was like 5 ur a cool mom

The thing I absolutely LOVE about your channel is that you think SO out of the box and your ideas and tips are actually useful and beautiful! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I love this!!! My daughter is 4 and she will love this!!! She already has a doll house and we are going to revamp her doll house!!! Dollar tree. Here. We. Go. Thank you!!!
This is amazing! I have 4 girls that are American Girl obsessed! Even my 12 year old, which I'm totally ok with, keep them young! I so wish we had space in our small house to do something like this, maybe someday!
Ohhhh love love love all of this I have a one-year-old granddaughter just found a nice doll house at Goodwill and going to use some of these ideas on a smaller version thanks for sharing
You have evoked so many childhood memories with this doll house! At age 10 (40+ years ago), I built my own doll mansion using cardboard boxes and masking tape. I used bits and bibs from all over the house for wallpaper, light fixtures, etc and for interior design. I was so incredibly proud of my creation and boy did my creativity ever get a work out. I had that house in my bedroom until we moved when I was 17 even though it sat unused for so many years. I sure wish I had pics of it. Thank you for nudging this walk down memory lane, Katherine!
My daughters have American Girl Dolls now my granddaughters too! Looking forward to sharing this video! Your super clever love the video great 👍 job! Super impressed♥️
This is ADORABLE!! So cute 😍
I love this idea!! Currently redoing my 5 yr old daughters room and this is exactly what I was looking for!
This is adorable!! I just love the imagination and creativity that went in to it. Such wonderful memories made with these little girls :) All of their friends are going to want one. I think it is wonderful that the dolls and their accessories were bought on a dime. AG dolls and their stuff can be sooo expensive.
This is the best DIY video you’ve ever done IMO, and one of the best things I’ve seen on KZread in a long time. Absolutely amazing and so impressive!!! 👏🏼💝👏🏼💝👏🏼💝
This is such a cool project! I’m obsessed with American Girl Dolls, and my room is totally taken over by dolls and doll stuff! I will probably use these ideas to create my dollhouse! I love your channel!
I've been dreaming of making a dollhouse for so long.. This is fabulous
Omg you’re so humble and lovable I literally can’t find anything to dislike about you
Wow! Love this dollhouse. Your creativity abounds - and love that it is all on a budget!
OMGOSH, this doll house is amazing, I'm beeeeeep years old, and I'd loveeeeee to play with that dolls house. I have a two and a half year old granddaughter, so I'm sure she will be wanting something like this very soon. Looks like nana had better start collecting furniture. Thanks so very much for sharing this fantastic video, I can't wait to start this project. Xxxxxxx
You are so creative, I love it! I am 35 and would love this for myself, lol! :) Great job, ladies!! I bet those two girls are loving it!
Oh my goodness!!! What a fun and great idea!!!! You are so creative and thoughtful. My girls would have loved this growing up. Thank you!!
Wow Kathryn you really out did yourself with this one! This is epic! I can’t even believe how amazing this was

YES!!!! More of this! My girls outgrew dolls, but my niece is into them! They can't afford AG stuff, but I've been DIYing lots of things! American Girls Ideas channel has so many great crafts as does My Froggy Stuff. I've been amazed how they can make things basically out of garbage! I've also been making doll clothes out of clothes that are stained or have holes and otherwise would have been thrown away.
Hi from Colorado. OMG Kathryn, that is one of the cutest dollhouses that I have ever seen! You are such a creative genius. God bless.
Maybe couldn’t you also wallpaper the walls before installing them in the shelf?

One of the cutest American girl house ever. I love these dolls and my girls had them when they were little
Wow just watching your old videos just love it binge watch all your videos just awesome aww I love this video 🥰😘😍my dream store dollar tree 😍😍
so pretty!!! I love the lights from the dollar tree. :)
Oh how special Kathryn, those little girls are sure going to have endless hours of fun. Greetings from South Africa

The decor is terrific, and you have such a beautiful spirit. Thank you for sharing your tips.
Love this! When I was a kid I took my brother's model airplane materials and built my own little doll house ,and now I'm looking for doll house project ideas to do with my son. He doesn't like dolls but loves doll houses. Whenever he sees one, he can spend a lot of time rearranging things and looking at the different ways the rooms can work. I think he'd love putting together his own little house.
You did such a great job decorating, you always come up with some good ideas, have a great day
Excuse me, I’ve got to RUN to ikea to get these shelves! I have wanted a doll house for my daughter for years. Now I can make her one!!!!! Tfs

Omg...this project turned out AWESOME! What great ideas. I love it! ❤❤❤
We did this exact thing in my daughter’s room years ago-same IKEA shelving! She and her friend spent countless hours playing and decorating-for about 6 months, until they both decided they were “too old” for American Girls 😕 We repurposed the shelves and that was that. I loved it. Of course I played with Barbies until I was in high school 🤪

This was amazing! One of the best ones you have done. I have boys, but this brought back so many of my childhood memories.
Amazing!! My youngest wants me to do this, like right now, ha!! Thank you SO much for showing us how!!

oh come on now. If this isn't the most adorable thing I've ever seen I don't know what is. What a wonderful job you guys did! I got all teary eyed when you talked about opening your first American Girl Doll. It brought back memories of when I opened my first one (Kirsten as well!) I will never forget that Christmas and I actually still have her to this day.
My 7 & 5 yr old are going to love this when I make one. Super excited about this project. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
I loved this and don't even have a daughter. Also laughed out loud at "these dolls are livin large"
I LOVE this! I wish I'd thought of it when my daughter was young (she's now 22)!
I built an american girl dollhouse for my kids last summer (using wood I got for free!) And we are still in the process of decorating it. We did use contact paper as flooring and wallpaper, but you have so many clever ideas I would never have though of! I love the idea of using picture frames as windows, and the puck lights - genius!
Honestly the doll house looks so gorgeous that I wanna live there...katherine, u are as awesome as always and I am just blown away everytime i see your ideas cz i connect with them so much ...Luv you god bless.

When I was younger, I had an entire corner of my bedroom sectioned off with shelves for a doll room. I made a tv, iPads, books, binders, a balance beam, uneven bars, and even a sink and bathroom cabinet. I played with American girl dolls until I was 12 or 13 😂 Ps. Mini eraser phones from book fairs at school make perfect doll iPhones!
