DIY Barbie Dollhouse RoomBox | Tiny House | 1:6 Scale Craft

Here's how to create a room box sized dollhouse for Barbie and other 1:6 scale dolls. It's been a year since my first Barbie house which I haven't gotten a chance to complete yet (it's in another location) so I thought I'd make a more thorough video on how to make a smaller house, not only because it was easier to film but sometimes we may not have the space for a large house. I based this general design on a she-shed, which is ideal for a house that is intended to be smaller. I plan to make the furniture and decor for the inside as well, so stay tuned for that. I also thought it might be fun to add a deck to place on the side, but that one's a big maybe. If you have an old room box lying around, there's no reason why it can't become a new dollhouse just by making a few exterior and roof additions. Stay crafty, people. 🏡

Perfect for the young, stylish, first-time homebuyer!

There so much attention to detail in this doll house. Crafting needs that kind of skills. I had to replay to see how piece each panel one by one. It's amazing. Wonderful work of art E.D. T

[@e.d.t.]

Thanks so much. I try to make my crafts worthwhile. I'm glad you like it 😊

[@normanshadow1]

Now that's my idea of a Barbie house! ❤

I love it! You are phenomenal at crafting, just gorgeous work! Don’t mind me adding one of these little houses to my little town!

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you 😊 Have fun creating your own little house! I wish I had the space to attempt a town. It seems like a lot of fun. I've seen some cute stuff from you and a few other youtubers.

[@e.d.t.]

Thanks so much 😊

[@WalaylaRose]

Absolutely brilliant!!!! Soo beautifully crafted, colors and all!!! Thank you for sharing your gift of crafting with us, it is greatly appreciated. 💛💕💛

[@sharonkaysnowton]

Your DIY Barbie dollhouse room box is toooooo cute!!! I like how you did the room using boards and glue. I make my Barbie houses from very large Office Depot boxes. I like them because they are easy to paint with canned spray paint and the boxes are extremely sturdy. I cut out my doors and windows. They do not warp. I use foam board to make base boards. Also my roofs are easy to make. I love how you made your window shutters and flower boxes. You did a great job and a very talented Barbie doll house crafter. Thanks for sharing the video. I enjoyed it.

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you. I'm glad you like it. Boxes are a great way to make houses. Sounds like you've mastered your own technique.

Hey E.D.T !! When you show up, you show out!!! I've been waiting for another one of your amazing builds. And I know you won't disappoint and furnish the inside, right?? Love your talent and creativity! Keep doing what you do!

[@YourFriendDee]

Your skill and creativity is insane! 🤯 I’ve been wanting to make a little cottage but wasn’t sure how to make some of the decorative pieces and this video has given me a lot of inspiration. Thanks for sharing.❤

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you. I'm glad you were able to get a bit of inspiration out of it. I sort of got on this diamond kick after I made the side window, but I like how distinctive the door and faux shutters came out because of that. I guess that's part of the what's nice about making our own crafts, even if the build is straightforward we can have a little fun with the accent designs.

[@melirosario3875]

Wow, you are really an inspiration it is gorgeous and your technique is simple but yet still complicated looking like detailed looking and beautiful work and classic style that looks like it could’ve really been a fold and Funhouse from the 90s are it’s giving blue cottage vibes ❤Yo Encanta Esto

[@PreppyPreppy713]

this is amazing! can you build a larger one? like two story with bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, etc? like a real modern home? i’m very inspired by this great job!

[@e.d.t.]

Thanks. I personally don't have the space for dollhouse that big which is why I made a room box, but I might make some of those elements individually. I've done some kitchen crafts and a bedroom dresser in other videos. There is a channel called Diy For Dolls that doesn't post anymore, but she made exactly what you're talking about. It's a good channel to check out if you're looking for big modern Barbie houses. I think she's made at least 3 of them.

I have been looking for someone to post this for so long, its definitely an inspiration. Did you create the designs in the windows and doors yourself? I am most definitely going to try this one, please keep posting vids like this, I'm needing to make a storefront w/ 3-4 stores. That means pray for me! Thank you for sharing your creativity.

[@e.d.t.]

I handcrafted the doors and windows myself if that's what you mean. I was inspired by the things I've seen on real buildings, and thought it'd be fun to do my own take on it to keep the house from looking too plain. Good luck with your storefront. I'm sure it will turn out great.

[@Kimella777]

That is gorgeous ❤😊could you figure out a log cabin ❤😊

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you. I've seen people make smaller log cabins out of rolled up tubes of paper. I'll have to think on that one. It might make a nice, cozy Christmas-time craft.

[@rosalierosa8403]

Hi and wow, your creativity and talent is amazing! Everything looks so great 😍! And it was really helpful to see how you did some of the pieces. It would be nice if you can do a list of the materials you are using, maybe for the next video? Can you please tell me, what the material of the house is? Is it white cardboard? Thank you!

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you. I need to be better about listing materials and doing templates. The base of the house is made of foamboard.

[@rosalierosa8403]

Thank you so much!! Now I know, what I have to buy 😊!!

[@e.d.t.]

@@rosalierosa8403 And fortunately foam board is pretty inexpensive, but you could also use cardboard if you have it. It's the siding that makes the house sturdy otherwise the board will curve a little, so if you want to make a house without siding on the outside I recommend making each wall at least 2 layers thick instead of 1 layer of board.

[@rosalierosa8403]

Thank you so much for your tips. This is so nice of you!!

[@alicianash3797]

Your creativity and work is so awsome and beautiful did you go to school to learn how to do this cause I'm ❤ your master peaices I'm constantly working on how I can become like you thank you and please keep showing us your work

[@e.d.t.]

Wow, thank you. I think as long as you have a passion for crafting and you keep at it, you can create great things 🙂I went to school for visual arts, but crafting is a hobby I picked up later. I was already collecting dolls and I thought it'd be fun to try to make things for them.

[@rmags3327]

This is really inspiring. I've been interested in getting into making miniatures of several scales, but I don't know where to start. Can I ask, what is the material you're using to make the frame of the house? TY in advance!

[@e.d.t.]

Thank you. I used dollar store foam board for the frame of the house, then I added chipboard siding to help prevent the foam board from warping, and there's more chipboard and craft sticks lining the inside. If you're making a large foam board structure, I recommend at least doubling the layers of foam or layering with other materials to keep the walls straight and increase durability. Have fun crafting and creating! 🙂

[@christinastalder4727]

Oh my goodness, this is lovely. I'd love to know how long it took you to build this? Very nice.❤

[@e.d.t.]

Thanks. It's hard to say how long it took because I would do a few things, not work on it for days, do something else, not work on it for days, and so on. It was probably a few days worth of work if I add it all together.
