Dollhouses this season continue to scream all things pink. From the shingles to doors, fuscia to flamingo, hues of pink are timeless. Hot trends for 2019 include doorbells, earth friendly construction and turrets. So if your dollhouse is starting to feel out-dated, a touch drab, or far from a dream dwelling, it’s time to grow up and freshen up! After all, you’re not a toddler anymore. Here are a few quick steps to help you renovate your wistful wonderland.
1. Paint
Likely your parents have leftover paint tucked away in the back corner of a storage room. Get out your brushes and start touching up. Chalkboard paint is a fun way to add creativity to a space.
2. Wallpaper
Scrapbook paper makes excellent wallpaper for dollhouses. Available in just about every colour and pattern, it’s just the right size for tiny walls.
3. Furniture
Scour thrift stores, garage sales and online buy and sell sites for repurposed digs. Don’t get hung up on a set. Instead, have fun mixing and matching styles and fabrics.
4. DIY
Step out of your comfort zone and research trends how to upcycle everyday items into furniture or decorations for your doll's home.
Whatever your miniature renovation entails, dream big.
