  Step 1

  The Cover. (I made the book with sheets of paper and a card stock cover, but you could use a book already made. Recycle.)

• 

  Step 2

  The Dolls. (These were made from pictures cut out of old magazines and secured to a card stock. I chose the dolls first and then found pictures that were of the right size for them.)

• 

  Step 3

  The garden and front door. (I made slits throughout the book and on each page for the dolls to fit in. Here is a doll placed behind some flowers.)

• 

  Step 4

  The Living Room.

• 

  Step 5

  Dining Room.

• 

  Step 6

  The Kitchen

• 

  Step 7

  For an extra play I cut some of the doors in the kitchen so that they would open to reveal typical kitchen items (food, etc).

• 

  Step 8

  The bedroom.

• 

  Step 9

  Making sure every room had places to hold the dolls was important for play, view, and transportation.

I didn't make clothes for the dolls (when using paper cut out from magazines it is a little hard), but a closet wardrobe that open to store clothes would be a great addition if you have use paper dolls drawn or printed from various online sites.

i love it...do you have a closet to put all the doll clothes in? i would think finding the right sizes for the dolls and house and clothes would be the hardest of it all. I am going to have to think about this a while but i too had paper dolls. My kids have grown but I am getting ready for a grand daughter some day...one can dream! LOVE LOVE LOVE this idea!
