Making a medicine cabinet for a dollhouse out of a shaver cartridge holder


This is an empty shaver cartridge that holds the cartridges for a shaver.




You need to cut out a piece of cardboard the size of the catridge, this is going to be the door.





You then use some duct tape and tape the one side to hold the cardboard to the catridge, this is the door hinge for the medicine cabinet.




Cut some strips of cardboard which will be used for trim work.





Glue pieces of the strip onto the door.




These decorative circles were cut off a tissue box, I use them for different crafts. I'm cutting one in half for the medicine cabinet.




This is the medicine cabinet painted and the decorative circle added.  In the center you will see an oval looking mirror.  What this mirror is is:  I use old DVDs or old CDs that I don't want.  I usually buy ones from garage sales cheap with songs on them that no one wants.  I then boil some water on the stove in a pot and use pliers to hold the DVD/ cd in the water so it gets soft.  I then cut it with kitchen scissors, if it starts getting hard I dunk it again.  As you can see it looks like a mirror.  You can also make mirrors for on dollhouse walls this way.  





This is the inside of the medicine cabinet.  Use your imagination, the ideas are endless.
