DIY Dollhouse Week 4

Fast on the heals of the last update is the bathroom update. The bathroom has a lot of tiny wee items that are going to test your patience. So just take it nice and so, and remember to let glue dry between steps – it really does help.

The lined basket is made using the same printed box and glued rope method that was done in the living room. It is then lined with the material used as the curtains. To do this I put a line of glue around the edge, and then glued down two pieces of material starting at the top and going downwards (see picture). Once the glue is dried the two material pieces are lifted up, cut to size and glued inside the basket.

The print for the floor in this room has two many gaps for my liking. So to fill in the gaps I have cut out a section of the floor that will end up being covered by the bath plinth. This gives me extra bits to cut up and place in the gaps, using the square tiles to line them all up.

You can also do the same for the toilet plinth if you still have more gaps to fill. It certainly makes the room look much nicer if the floor is completely covered.

And here we go, all the bathroom items all completed.

It really is a cute little bathroom. All those fiddly pieces may have given you some grief and you probably found yourself glueing everything but what you wanted glued. But it really does all come together to create a very realistic bathroom that you can imagine a little person living in and using all the soaps and toothbrushes.

At least I can, maybe all that glue has made me a little crazy

And here is the bathroom all done.

So that is all the rooms done! Yay!

Next step is to complete the rooms by creating the lampshades and then connecting up all the wires to give this house some light. Very exciting.

That’s all for now, until next time – happy crafting.
