Agree, you can buy as many houses for dolls in stores as you like. It's quick and easy, especially when funds are unlimited. But sometimes you want to give free rein to your own imagination and come up with, for example, a house for a paper doll. If you have several of these dolls, then the game will become more exciting.

A bit of nostalgia

The adult generation, who grew up during the Soviet Union, may recall that there used to be a rather interesting toy under the non-trivial name "Anina's apartment". This paper doll house has been a dream come true for many girls. There was something to dream about: the usual paper doll that came with the kit had an apartment with real furniture. Previously, it was only necessary to cut out the walls covered with wallpaper and paintings, doors that can open, and blanks for furniture. Then everything stuck together and the magical immersion into the game began.

Moreopportunities

Today there are more opportunities to acquire such a toy. Stationery stores sell everything your heart desires. It's just a matter of imagination and perseverance. Let's make a house for your paper beauty too. First draw it with a ruler and a pencil. We will make sure that the walls, floor and ceiling are even, we will think over where the doors will be. We will also pay attention to the layout of housing for a paper ward.

How to make a paper house for paper dolls?

You can build on a larger scale and give your paper dolls a two-story house. For stability, use cardboard from boxes. We cut off from one side of the box its closing parts. We put the workpiece “on edge” sideways. It turns out that the closed part will be a wall on which you need to mark a place for a window, and even, possibly, for a balcony.

Cut out windows. When you need one big room, we leave everything as it is. If you need two smaller rooms, divide the box into two halves using the cut off part, which is more authentic. We look where the doorway will be. We draw it, and also cut it out. We place a partition in the middle of the doll house. We fix it with tape to the wall of cardboard housing. We make the second floor of the house from the same cardboard box. We put it on top of the previous box, and fasten the upper and lower parts together. You can use a stapler for this. We make the roof from two long cut pieces of cardboard.

Well, now it's up to cosmetic repairspuppet room. Here everything depends on the imagination of the designer, that is, you. You can paste over the walls with self-adhesive film, hang curtains on the windows. Draw small pictures and decorate the room with these masterpieces. Cute cuts of fabric (carpets) are laid on the floor, and modular furniture can be created from matchboxes. In general, the game has begun.
