HAUNTED HOUSE DIY / DOLLAR TREE HAUNTED HOUSE / 2021 HALLOWEEN HOUSE DECOR

[@marlenelawson8856]

I love how you made this haunted house out of two Dollar Tree, Doll Houses, your real creative.

[@amysaunders4589]

This video is perfect! No talking, great music to set the tone, and loving the speed. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👩🏽‍🦱👩🏽‍🦱👩🏽‍🦱

Remarkable renovation. This doll house is creepy cool. Good job!

[@joasiadornick242]

So cool. Kitty had a tiny flea. So adorable 🥰

[@dragonflydance9204]

Wow!! It really does look like an old Gothic mansion house. All the shading detail you did was amazing to watch. A master class in art techniques, as well as crafting

[@dansetzer1454]

Cyd in MD. You have created the best Halloween DIY I have ever seen. It's more than a DIY. You've created a treasure your family will use for years. BRAVO!

[@diykarem]

Thank you for the nice comments.

[@PinkSwan146]

You planted the seed and got my creative juices flowing …. I’m thinking of doing an old fashioned Christmas winter wonderland house using your technique 🤗🤗 … TFS 🥰

[@mommarooster7874]

Post pictures. I was thinking the same thing

[@bjgreen5526]

Ohhhhh that’s a wonderful idea. Thanks.

[@melindabruce2152]

Did you end up doing this Angelita?

[@PinkSwan146]

@Melinda Bruce … not yet .. there weren’t any houses at my dollar tree then but my daughter found some in Austin and we will be doing it this year 🤗…. Hopefully we’ll be as creative 👍💪💪💪💪💪

[@megangibbs9737]

that sounds awesome.

[@michellesilva879]

This is hands down the best version of the doll house/haunted house I've seen. It's a work of art! Amazing.

[@mvb33]

I was thinking the same as you said 👍🏼

[@timicenhour5793]

You never cease to amaze me with your designs and creativity.

[@kellihull7600]

This is BEYOND anything I dreamed of making with mine!!!! I better get started on my Christmas version!!!!

[@cheriebell9048]

You have done an awesome job! Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@darrellphillips8804]

My wife came across your Halloween video and insisted that I come in and watch it. Freaking Fantastic!! Not only are your concepts amazing, but you certainly renewed my faith to take a closer look when shopping at Dollar Tree. Thank you ! Watching you work was a feast!! Your work is so ( and I hate using these DIY terms), High and and spot on!!! We actually looked forward to watching the entire Halloween Crafting Event!! Your work is so precise and not ‘sloppy’. If something no matter how less significant, if it’s wrong or not quite right you went back and fixed it. In a vast ocean of Diy sites this was like finding a treasure island!!! My wife has been an incomplete quadriplegic for 14 years. We are using Crafting as a source of therapy to help her as well as inspire her especially in times when she struggles with the down side of her condition and discouraging times. Well done!!! Darrell and Maggie Phillips

[@diykarem]

Thank you so much for the incredible comment. I'm so glad you and your wife are enjoying the videos and I wish you both nothing but the best.

I've seen several versions of turning this house into a haunted house, but this is by far the best. Absolutely love it!

[@thecomplexion7524]

Where did you see the other versions? I’d love to see them

[@diykarem]

Wow, thank you!

[@kathleenetchison7539]

Absolutely amazed by your creativity!

[@chezg806]

Love that you stacked them and didn’t just paint it all black!

[@anitapacheco8223]

@chezg806 last Halloween , my first year crafting. I painted 2 single story houses black. Windows and trim gray. This year, I am going to turn them into a 2-story house. Change colors of the trim and windows. I did however, add pieces of drape cloth on some of the windows and put a small fan in front of the houses so the drape would flow with the wind. I added small red lights inside the houses. I love watching these videos from these very talented people.

[@mneraasen224]

I saw someone turn this into a simple one story haunted house. I was wishing for it to be a two story. This is awesome 👏🏻

[@diamondzfromtheroughDIY]

This is fantastic! I bought two houses this weekend to start on my "haunted village"! Thanks for the inspiration and ideas!

[@janetolson4894]

I can't wait to see you make a gingerbread house out of these

[@mrs.pattiderge6743]

So creative to use the bones from the necklace to make a widows walk. I enjoy watching your paint layering. Thanks for sharing your creativity and talent!

[@diykarem]

Thank you!!

[@krystalwallace7901]

Thank you didn't know what that was. Hoping to find those now. I have had the houses. Finally going to paint it for Halloween

[@sirenofsound]

This is so much fun to watch. Mesmerizing to watch you work and learn from you. Thank you for sharing your gifts!

[@sylvia101ification]

Wow...you took a dollar..turned it into a million...cant not tell you enough...how i love this Haunted house...i have seen alot of them..but this one is amazing...thanks for your wonderful talent...i jump for joy...when i see your videos posted!!

[@diykarem]

Thanks so much!!

[@DevonaRavenhold]

Now that I am homeschooling my child, I want us to do some of your Halloween pieces for our art projects! So creative!!

[@diykarem]

Thank you!!

[@jadestone8552]

Haven’t seen the doll houses at my DT. Maybe someday. This is amazing the way you turned it into a haunted house. Congratulations

[@chungafea1879]

What a great idea about doubling them up! One of the best I’ve seen.

[@diykarem]

Thank you!!

[@Foxiepawstotti]

This is gorgeous, who would have thought it was pink and purple underneath. The colours you used are perfect.

[@stephm.3407]

You never cease to amaze me - while everyone else is fiddling around with popsicle sticks, you figured this out! I never really spend much time in the kids section at DT, and you saw this creation from the doll houses, bravo! I'll be hitting my local DTs looking for this, can't wait to try it! Thank you for your astounding creativity!

[@diykarem]

Thank you so much!!

[@monicalawhorn2485]

Wow. This is one of the best haunted houses i seen made from these dollar tree doll houses.

[@kerrypitt9789]

It's kind of funny in a way about the dollhouse. It looks like they took molds from the old Adams Family toy house and turned them into doll houses. You creations are very well thought out and hopefully will be used for a few Halloweens! Keeps it out of landfill and you have created a timeless decoration. This reminds me I need a better glue gun. You have really done a great job! Much appreciated!!

[@lindacope5367]

$2..2 doll houses

[@diybronwynsmith263]

I need a new glue gun too lol love the haunted mansion right? So cool and reusable for many Haunted Halloween’s!

[@nancyromer626]

When I looked at this creation, I saw the adams family house, too!

[@diykarem]

Thank you!!

You are so unbelievably talented! I wish I could simple see things the way you see them. Who would have looked at one of those little houses and imagined making it a 2 story haunted house, but you!

Amazing transformation! You are one creative, talented lady. Brilliant!

[@lorimaeder1245]

I just fell in love with this, I never dreamed of two story style house. Now that I saw this the three Dollar Stores I go to had no houses. I'm praying that they get some more in. I can't wait to try this. My daughter's favorite holiday is Halloween so we want to make these.❤️

[@kellybroderick3890]

Oh gawwwsh the amount of creativity that comes from your mind is so inspiring!!! I LOVE THIS! I am in awe of the transformation.

[@amymeyeraan3514]

The amount of detail you add to every project amazes me! You are very talented. I love that there is no commentary with your videos!

[@diykarem]

Thank you!!

[@marymccloskey9450]

What an amazing transformation! 💕

[@ammiller3911]

I love watching these transformations! The thing that always gets me though is like "go to dollar tree and buy $20 worth of materials and make this!" But I can buy a cheap Halloween decoration for $5 at Walmart. That's why I like watching artists, such as yourself, doing this stuff but I could never afford it! Anyway this came out great.

[@diykarem]

It is true, the enjoyment of crafting is definitely the variable that makes it worth it. I do enjoy trying to make dupes of expensive items cheaper, but there are definitely some crafts where it ends up costing more to create it yourself, and also the time commitment.

[@ammiller3911]

@@diykarem yes exactly. I love making stuff too, sometimes it isn't about the money! Your work is great.

Truly amazing! You never cease to amaze thank you for sharing your creative gift 😍🧙🏼‍♀️

[@cdeherrera59]

Every time I see your creations, I just think about all of the thought and mistakes that goes along with the final turnout. You have tons of patience to bring your creations to life for the rest of us to try. Your thought, color choices, cutting, gluing etc. You show us a simpler way of doing things that we would probably overlook because we can't see the potential that you can. Again I am in awe of your mind, helping me to see a different side of something simple made into something quite elegant.

[@diykarem]

Thanks so much 😊

[@ruthpowell1944]

I'm going to use your design to start a Christmas village. You have definitely inspired me. I have arthritis in my hands, so have found that using my wood burning tool to melt plastic is easier than trying to cut off unwanted edges.

[@diykarem]

Hi Ruth. That is really smart. My mom has pretty severe arthritis in her hands as well.

[@nancyhatcher3320]

You never cease to amaze me! Who, but you, would look at a plastic doll house & think "haunted house". Got to try this one. On my way to Dollar Tree! I already have the bone necklaces and some of the accessory pieces to go with the house. Oh boy, too much fun! Thanks again for sparking my imagination!

[@marymcaskile1727]

I love it! I'm doing haunted houses with the plain wood house signs, I'm taking 2 of each of them using tower game blocks to attach them together and cut up jumbo craft sticks for the roofs, they are turning out pretty cool so far! There were 5 different shaped houses and then a small one that had a wood stand... I think I'm going to buy a bunch of those plastic houses there are two different ones if I can find them up here in Canada and try to make a Christmas village, I thought you could even mount them onto a board like a huge shadow box and then hand it up on a wall or something! I love the stuff you make you're very talented in taking things and doing something else with them you inspire me to make things also!

[@jillsarah7356]

Love this so much! Only thing is I would suggest painting the frames of the three middle windows in the gunmetal color as well, and adding some grey/green spots on the house as if mold/moss is growing on it. You could even add tiny spots of craft moss for another texture!

[@pattivargas7360]

By far the best on line. Your attention to detail is fantastic.
