Making a fake mirror with a seat for a dollhouse



The first thing I do is make a solid back and a frame for around the top portion.  I make the back longer so the seat can be glued onto it. I make them out of cardboard.





First take a container bottom from coffe cake and glue it to the top of the cardboard backing.  These will be the mirrors.





Next glue the frame on them.





You need to take two wood jenga blocks and glue them together, this will be the seats.






In this picture you will see I covered them with red felt and added lace to cover the seams. Next to glue the seats to the mirrors.






When they are glued together you have a hallway seat.  I also added a piece of jewelry to the bottom.



In this picture you can see them on both sides of the door. Next blog is how to make window shades.








How to make a fake stained glass window for a dollhouse.





First go on the Internet and print out a picture off images of a stained glass window you want to use.  As you can see I also made a frame for the window out of a pizza box.  I also take a piece of plastic from a container that held Danish.  I glued the picture onto the plastic with mod podge.  Just make sure the picture has the plastic glued to it. Now glue the frame over the plastic.





Now it is ready to glue to the window opening.





You can see the window with the picture in the center window.




Making Windows frames out of a pizza box for dollhouses


These are the Windows that needed window frames around them.




This is the cardboard from a pizza box.





This is a template I made off of one of the Windows.  I cut it out of a piece of cardboard.  Once you cut this template out keep it for making more of them.





This is cut from a pizza box.  I also added some plastic on it from a plastic carry home container.  I use plastic containers to make Windows.  I glue them together with tacky glue.





This is what they look like once they are all cut with plastics added.  Next blog will be how I made the stained glass window in the middle window.
