I am so excited!!! I have been wanting to make a cardboard dollhouse for the peg dolls I have been making and I finally did it!! I found one on Pinterest that I thought I could get done without to much time and effort, and I did it!!! I went to Dollar General to pick up a few other things, but when I saw the tri-fold display poster board (you know, the kind you use for the science fair) I decided to bring it home and try it out. It, of course, wasn't the exact measurements that every other tri-fold in a "real" store has, but I just fudged the measurements and did the best I could. I think it came out great. My board was 35.5" high, which I thought was way to tall for my peg dolls, so I cut the board in half and continued that way.
I am looking forward to decorating the walls, roof, adding windows, and making some furniture. I think the kids will get a kick out of it next year. I am interested in seeing how long it will take 12 4 and 5 year olds to destroy it.
If you are interested in the tutorial that I used you can go to Jeannie Guzis Photography to get all the info. She did a really great job detailing the directions and made it so easy to follow and even change up when I needed to change my measurements. I LOVE Pinterest!!!
I will keep you posted as it comes together!!!
