How to make a Miniature Christmas House using a Dollar Tree Dollhouse*.

On Instagram the other day, I saw a reel by Jessica Grant on how to make a

Gingerbread House using a Dollhouse she purchased at Dollar Tree*.

(It was so adorable, you need to check it out.)

I love miniatures, doll houses, and Christmas.

So, of course, I had to run over the next day and pick up a couple for myself.

There were two different dollhouses* to choose from.  (I bought one of each.)

The house was simple to dissasemble, which makes it perfect for painting.

I spray painted the pink house white, the roof gray, and the windows and doors gold.

It’s important to use a paint that sticks well to plastic.

Because I am an impatient crafter and couldn’t’ wait to put it together,

I have a few scratches on my house.

I sealed the paint on my house with a clear matte finish sealer*.

I also picked up these fairy lights*.

I’m not sure if I’m going to use them or not.

The pink of the original dollhouse shows through when the lights are on.

(I should have given the house an additional coat of paint.)

As a crafter, I have a stash of Christmas miniatures I’ve collected over the years.

They really came in handy this time.  (You can always check out your local craft store.)

I glued them onto the front of the house using Rapid Fuse All Purpose Adhesive*.

I’m in love with this Christmas Dollhouse.

It looks so real.  I want to live in that house.
