The coolest dollhouse gift EVER
An epic Kmart hack if ever I’ve seen one, one mum’s dollhouse makeover was created for her one-year-old niece’s birthday. We have ZERO doubt this is one gift that will be treasured for years and years to come.
Have paint brush, will reno…
Kacey says she bought the dollhouse from Kmart and then set about turning it into the ultimate Scandinavian-inspired space by giving the included furniture a new look with a simple lick of paint. Extra furnishings, of the adorable, teeny tiny variety, were found on Ebay.
Also, because you CAN make something from practically nothing, Kacey did just that! She re-purposed odds and ends from around her home to create new styling bits and bobs on a mini-scale. For example, that adorable plant you see below is a cutting from a bigger fake plant – so clever!
We all know that no house reno is complete without a trip to Bunnings. Kacey paid them a visit too – the floorings throughout are all sample pieces cut to size and cost next to nix. DIY dollhouse makeover GENIUS!
The minimalist approach
One Brown Bear blog set the dollhouse makeover trend in motion a couple of years ago with this adorable modern dollhouse makeover. The all-white minimalist affair had us all swooning and wanting to move in.
