I'm curious as to how many hours this took. It looks like such a fun project. I wonder if my husband will mind me taking over the living room floor lol.

[@nls959]

I’m building a dollhouse. I took over the dining room table. We hardly ever use it.

[@pattivargasvargas8076]

Adorable and so well made. Any girl of all ages would enjoy this lovely home.

[@vanessasmith4637]

I just got a free doll house and can't wait to do it over. I will need to watch a lot of videos for inspiration!

[@abbi_timberwolf3168]

How’s it going?

[@Deximaru]

Beautiful work. Those shutters and potted plants were a nice touch. The blankets were super cute as well

[@indiramichaelahealey5156]

Unbelievable how much you improved the doll house. It now looks beautiful.

[@dianamolina8712]

I'm doing it for my niece. Didn't know what supplies I needed. Great video.

[@Lienchen0815]

I took your project as a role model and luckily found this Melissa & Doug Dollhouse on german market place (I am from Germany) for 45 Euros. Now I want to paint it in ivory. Then make it weatherproof. It will become a bee hotel on a vintage nightstand with plantet drawers. I am so excited about this project. Thank you for the inspiration ❤

[@theresahubbard5165]

This turned out so cute! I had an old Fisher Price doll house that was pink and blue that I was going to throw away a while back. It was October and I got the idea to spray paint it black and turn it into a haunted house. It turned out so cute. I found some little skeletons at the dollar store that were the perfect size and added some popsicle sticks with the ends cut off. I wrote be ware on them and boarded up the windows. Used Spanish moss in it. My daughter lived in a addition so I took it to her house for porch decorations. 😊

[@AliciaSchreffler]

This dollhouse is very cute! I am going to be starting one now (in much worse shape) but beyond excited to see the transformation! Thank you for sharing!

[@KatherineDeGroot]

Bethany this is SO inspiring. I did a fun dollhouse project for my daughter in December of 2020 and I keep thinking about it. You're making me want to do another project. Every detail is perfect, and I can't believe what good condition that house was in when you bought it. Gotta love Marketplace!

[@sharonkaysnowton]

(2023) I am looking at videos to see how others strip the paint off a doll house. I kind of "bumped" into your video. So, I sat down and started watching it. Your doll house turned out beautifully. I love the wooden shutters. The little pillows and blankets are too cute! And the fire place. Wow! You did a great job! Was the entire house and furniture made of wood? Do you still have this doll house? You and your daughter will have soo much fun playing with this house. Thanks again. I enjoyed this video.

[@karlabraun2029]

I'm feeling inspired! I found a fool house at a thrift store today, my daughter will be 5 in a month. I better get to work on it.

[@christybirling3299]

Great choice on using the shutters, They added so much to the look.

[@LauraOnDuty]

This is amazing, Bethany! The interior is much more detailed now! The colour schemes are indeed more neutral. Excellent work! 🖤

[@that70sgirl17]

This is so incredibly gorgeous - I feel so inspired to makeover one of my own!

[@MollieRMS]

My 7-year old LOVES your dollhouse! 😍

[@squidthesloth]

Been wanting to remodel a dollhouse for awhile, stumbled across this same dollhouse from a second hand website and immediately bought it. Thank you for the inspiration :)

[@AdventuresinCritterland]

Wow this is FANTASTIC!! I wish I was half as crafty! Stunning! 😍

[@ililacyou9738]

This is exactly what I needed these kind of vids are satisfying

[@miyvkiu]

You really made me want customize my doll house 😭😩❤

[@dartlanddunbar5842]

Absolutely adorable! You are so talented!

[@debbralehrman5957]

What a nice job. I love the color change. It looks Fantastic!

[@stacydougherty4439]

That’s phenomenal! I don’t understand why toy makers make every doll house pink and purple! I’m about to make over a large Barbie princess castle.

[@daphneariana3143]

I enjoyed a pink and purple dollhouse, I’m so used to seeing normal houses with bland colors everyday. To me, as a little girl- I loved fantasy and pink. I thank toy makers/toy companies for making my childhood colorful!

[@AmorYMigas]

So so cute! I just found a dollhouse at a yard sale and was looking for how to redo it for my granddaughters. Your redo was amazing and I love that you kept it simple! It’s really really cute!

[@bluefinster6209]

Very nice and tasteful. You're an amazing interior designer in miniature.

[@beez663]

So cute! What a wonderful hobby and a great way to get inventive with the decor.

[@intimatesanctuary]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@jacintacody133]

[@angelacorvette2790]

[@RockinRoyaltyx3]

I would love the family to get a makeover too, it would be so cute. The dollhouse is a dream!

[@jeandunn8826]

It turned out beautifully!!!

[@judithchaparro3336]

Excellent work. Last month I bought a very similar house and you give me fabulous ideas. Thank you. Greetings from México.

[@Whos_Millz]

No way! I had that same dollhouse when I was little!

[@suzannechristian3965]

Super job! I love the colors!

[@FourThousandMilesTogether]

Oh.my.god. this is incredible!!!

[@sophiegirl752]

Love this!!

[@tommckillop3016]

Beautiful House. I love that it is a Melissa & Doug house you rebuilt for a new look... and so kid friendly too... The battery operated lights are fabulous. So no wiring is needed? That process has always just stopped me in my tracks...So where can I buy these lights? And do they just glue or nail onto the ceilings? They are amazing.

[@miniaturescookingandmore6583]

I LOVE IT!

[@teresalane9111]

Love it x

[@T0astGhost]

I have this same dollhouse! I’m wanting to redo it as well but I didn’t know how to start, this is really inspiring!

[@robloxkawaii926]

I love this

[@sheila8999]

O sorry it is sooo beautiful ❤❤❤❤!

[@Shortgirllove]

Wow! I’m 27 and I play Barbies with my 2 little girls

[@gozar_fire7586]

Lets go its pretty now!

[@elleinadcollection]

I’d love to do this for my kids

[@GloriaSkipper]

Such an improvement!!

[@Shellyz2u]

I would have loved that as a child

[@sophiegirl752]

Would you mind sharing the source for the battery lights at the end, please? Thanks so much.

[@cammycamm76]

this is soo awesome! Subscribed! :D

[@maskandotherferrets5762]

8:31 you get a notification to a thrift store dollhouse makeover like link doll pop-up up to the top corner

[@Mike-or2cv]

I would use some texture for roof or some more colours, like blue shutters or sth, because it's a little too dark for me, but still - very pretty. I just don't like only black/gray/white colours.

[@aowales3316]

Beautiful !! Where fid you get the lights?

[@Uneaiguilledevelours]

Llloiooooovvvveeeeeeee it

[@dominiquebachman7537]

This is so cute! What a great job! I can’t find the tutorial on how you made the rainbow

[@BethanyFontaine]

Just look up rope rainbow tutorial on Pintrest! Thats where I learned how to make them!

[@peggy_tan]

❤️

[@Im_Fangirling776]

NO WAY!!! I have that doll house!!!!

[@lindasandrey3782]

Can you please let me know where you got the lighting you talked about? Thanks!

[@judgejulie7869]

Excellent job! I've finally managed to unscrew all pieces of a 70s dolls house but its still all stuck together by glue. Would you still disassemble or shall I do refurb as it is to avoid breaking it? Its wooden ❤

[@NickAscherl]

Any link for the lights?

[@isobel8253]

Omg I had that before

[@rabiawajidtoor]

Can you please tell.what paint did you you use with the brush

[@toxicbangbang]

I want to do this so badly. I have no place to put a dollhouse, though lol. Nor do i have any kids to give it to.

[@leapfrog9656]

I was wondering what the lights are and what type of paint to use, acrylic?

[@susanjeffay3851]

Im curious where you got the little ceiling lights?

[@mischalottie5453]

But, what type of spray paint? I know how to paint but I don’t know what type goes onto what surface AND I want to make sure it will last and be durable

[@obirobkenobi3599]

Does the sticky flooring ,wallpaper etc stick better to bare wood or glossy surfaces?

[@cherylrichardson6095]

Just found your channel. Where did you get the lights for the dollhouse?

[@sofiaanaya3457]

What kind of paint do you use?

[@sheila8999]

Can you give some input on the walls what you did to them?

[@alyssaparos1512]

Can you share a link to the lights please?

[@tenaciousD_enis]

What were the lights you used?

[@pinkydoo8007]

Is using that spray paint safe for children ? My toddler still currently puts toys in her mouth and I’m scared that it will have a strong smell and be toxic for her. Is there any other paint options you can recommend ?

[@Lilyss_Pad]

What did you use to attach the shutters?

[@eyesmiles841]

What brand of paint do you use

[@hanna-ih8lj]

i’m also planning to do a dollhouse makeover with a dollhouse someone wanted to throw away! i’m wondering if it’s okay to use regular acrylic paint to paint it? i’m not sure if it messes with the wood in any way, but i can’t afford to buy paint that is particularly for wood

[@poojaatulmahajan5182]

Hmm I think acrylic would work ok on wood......u might wanna use a varnish as a protective coating though Hope it helps good luck!

[@jenifermiles1152]

Where can I go to purchase one of your doll houses?

[@selenahall6643]

I would have done red doors instead of the brown

[@paulashealthyliving]

I was thinking the front door would be awesome red.

[@selenahall6643]

@@paulashealthyliving very much so agreed

[@layla984]

Someone destroyed my daughter house so its hanging now,where l can get little parts to fix it?

[@anitam.2525]

I have a 5ft antique dollhouse I bought for $100.00 in a thrift shop, it’s sitting in my storage unit because I’m hoping I can restore it, but I have not a clue on the proper paint to use, or if I need a seal for the paint, it’s Victorian and beautiful. Can anyone tell me the proper paint to use. Thanks

[@rosaliacalixto2880]

I love seeing people do this lol

[@violetbarroso8254]

Is that a real sponge

[@yunkerfaith]

do you happen to know the name of this house?

[@mischalottie5453]

This is not a how to. There is no information on how or why the wood is on there, no information on materials, just a bunch of different cuts of you painting and assembling. Non informative

Beautiful ❤️
