Doll House = Done!

We originally had planned to give Macyn her dollhouse for her birthday, but since we weren't super busy this past weekend and was an extremely well behaved child, we decided to give it to her early. Let me tell you, this has kept her busy all weekend! It is nice to see that it doesn't matter to her if it is home made, if the beds are made out of cereal boxes or the couch made out of kleenex. She loves it all the same as a store bought one. Here are the final pictures:
Finished house! Includes baby room, bedroom, loft area, and living room.

When we gave this to her she exclaimed "A BARBIE HOUSE!"

How she arranged everything :)
Here is the lowdown of all the supplies used:
 • Peel and stick floor tiles (leftovers) - Free
 • Purple shag rug from the dollar store ($6)
 • Walls - gift bags and scrapbook paper ($3)
 • Paint - leftover from Macyn's nursery -Free
 • Chandelier was a Christmas ornament I found at Walmart ($2)
 • Furniture was made out of cereal boxes, kleenex boxes - Free
 • Materials for furniture was used out of my mom's old fabric scraps.
 • Stuffing for the pillows and couch a giant bag ($3)
 • Flatscreen TV - template I desgined - Free!

So with a grand total of $14, I think this was a pretty cheap way to make something Macyn loves. It was such a fun project to do!
