DIY DOLLHOUSE PLANS
/First, sorry to everyone who’s been asking for these plans for over a year!
Plans aren’t the easiest to draft up, and I’m a perfectionist so it’s taken some time, but here we are!
I will share where all of the items are from within the dollhouse too, so be sure to read through the post if you’re interested on sources for the house and baby doll furniture.
Lastly, this would be a great quarantine project, but it’s also a great project for Christmas to get started on now! Dollhouse furniture can get expensive, so I highly recommend making what you can and buying a little here and there between now and Christmas so it’s easier to budget for.
***Disclaimer, many of the shops I’ve purchased from are on breaks due to quarantine as they are small business owners. I will be sure to update this post with their shop details once they return to business!
Can’t wait to see what yall come up with!
Two must have products for any dollhouse in my opinion are shown below.
You can download the plans PDF here to print as well!
(Please note that this is not a beginner’s project. These plans were created with the assumption that the individual making this understands the basic fundamentals for woodworking. For more detailed instructions on woodworking, we recommend watching youtube videos or searching Ana White on Pinterest for steps. Please let us know if you have any questions!)
We also plan on adding doors to the front that close shut with a lock at some point. This will allow me to close it when guests with smaller children are over to ensure nothing is ruined and will also keep the items cleaner over time. I will be sure to blog those when we make them!
Here’s a peek inside of our dollhouse!
The items I made were the wall hanging in the kitchen and living room, the artwork on the mantel, and the beds in the parents’ room. I plan on making a hanging mobile for the girls’ room next.
2. Mini donuts, starbucks cups and other small adorable items

If there’s items in the dollhouse that you don’t see listed above, I recommend going to my instagram page and viewing the “dollhouse” highlight where I show everything in detail. Aside from that, my favorite dollhouse stores are listed and linked here:
No Small Miracle (dollhouse and baby doll items)
Hobby Lobby / Michaels Dollhouse or Fairy Garden items
and you can always search Etsy for a specific product!
You can find a lot of the dollhouse items in videos with direct links to the Instagram small shops at my DOLLHOUSE highlight button on instagram @amylouhawthorne. It’s shown above all the way to the right side so you may need to slide over on the colorful buttons.
