Make a Dollhouse Out of Catalogs

Reader Leanne at SeetheWoodsandtheTrees made an adorable little dollhouse with her daughter using recycled catalogs and magazines. This is so cute! I love the little clothesline. This project is a great way to use up extra cardboard and other stuff you have lying around. Your child will love using his or her imagination in this innovative dollhouse!

Project Estimate:

Recycled cardboard, on hand
Glue stick or other glue, on hand
Scissors, on hand
Home catalog or magazine, on hand

Total cost: FREE

Squeee! I used to do something similar, but with stacked-up cardboard boxes – free, from the grocery store. I wasn’t allowed Barbie’s Town House, because my mom thought it wasn’t imaginative enough, and too expensive. I think with a little grown-up help, you could cut doorways and windows in the boxes with a box cutter.
