HUGE Dollhouse Build

It's here! The long awaited tutorial of how I built the structure and main components of my new dollhouse! This thing is absolutely massive and took months to get to this point. It's been such a fun journey and I hope you enjoy watching the process.

You make crafting look so clean and elegant meanwhile I’m sitting at my desk with sticky stained hands and scrap wood and dust everywhere 😭

[@schauschau2552]

the best way to be! artistic mess yeah!!!

[@elivile.]

Such a damn mood!

[@gizzygibbs]

Couldn’t agree more. ☺️

[@sarahfronk221]

I have my own doll house kit and I messed up on the drain pipe. But it'll be pretty in its own way.

[@MoonChildTarot8888]

😂😂😂 I'm a mess too lol

[@kreathagreene5189]

I wish I was a tiny person, I’d love to live in it… amazing work..

[@imagairtslm]

your nails changing multiple times during the video really shows how long this took!

This is crazy amazing. Cannot imagine the money, time, and patience that goes into it.

BEAUTIFUL WORK. I make miniature furniture. What I’d give to have this.

[@carolallison9685]

I made that kit. I furnished it like a Victoria era farmhouse complete with vegetable patch, greenhouse, stables, and barnyard. It was fully wired for lights. It took me a year and a half to complete. Spent well over a $1000 on it to make it perfect. It was beautiful.......then, one day when it was fully done and on display, i was doing the laundry and my kids got to it and broke it and all of the furniture inside of it. Had to trash the whole thing. Moral of the story, dont build one of these kits if you have small children. They will think its a toy and try to play with it no matterhow much you tell them its not a toy. My kids are older now, so i think it might be safe to get back into miniatures. Pray for me and my dollhouses lol.

[@TheSquaretoSpare]

Oh no!!! I'm so sorry that happened! I have a toddler and he loves playing with it even though it's nowhere near done. I built him his own little dollhouse to play with so he keeps his hands out of mine but it's not working lol. He loves messing around in the kitchen and has broken several pieces. It's okay though- things can be replaced and a happy childhood is my focus for now :)

[@andreag490]

I have this exact dollhouse kit that’s been sitting in my garage for over a year. When I opened the box, I was overwhelmed by all the pieces and instructions because I’m horrible at following instructions but you give me hope I can do it too. I’m going to take it out the garage and finally work on it!

[@cindicusimano5674]

I started mine yesterday. I watched many videos on this kit and this is the very best one. I am also making mine larger. I don’t need the porches. Going to add a hidden room too. But for now just trying to assemble!

[@amandajones6481]

​@@cindicusimano5674What do you get with the kit? Are the windows, doors, stairs and bannisters included, or do you have to make them yourself? Also, do you put electric lights in the doll house? I know you can buy electric lights for these, but are they difficult to install?

[@Toots760]

Hahaha that's what I U WAKE said!!!!! Seeing all those pieces I would have told myself ya we can start this another day lol

[@aliciabrooks4094]

I am loving the house so far

[@TheSquaretoSpare]

Thank you so much for all the love guys! I really appreciate your patience as I worked on this kit for the last few months ❤️ And a special thank you to those who showed up early and hung out with me for the premiere! I love hearing from you!

[@ihaveagoldenhanduwu3416]

months 😭 ... my problem is that i think i can complete it in few days

[@dharkann]

@@ihaveagoldenhanduwu3416 building the kit in a few days, yeah you can do it. Making addition as you go along? I highly doubt it.

[@nanaabaeshun2125]

FYI I can not finish it in one week

Do you know of a way to make this out of cardboard?

[@Cousinsslay693]

I would literally love to buy this for 5000$ 3:08

[@melangellperry5984]

I have always wanted to build one of these huge dollhouses. I’m going to live vicariously through you once I have no room.

[@bettekrise8463]

The brand is awesome, Real Good Toys, Ive built two. I am excited to try the hingeing that she did on the front, on my next one!

[@rainbowgirlism]

M. perry, There’s other ways to do the dollhouse hobby, such as room boxes.

[@s0up_1223]

I know it’s not exactly a big doll house but there are little kits that would give you a similar experience

[@s0up_1223]

I prefer the robo time ones (i think that’s what there called)

[@Kt-cn2rq]

Same i want one but i have no room for it.

[@sophiahousen3973]

I had to pause the video to say this before I forget. I'm so glad to see that you're still on this space doing what you love while sharing your crafts with everyone including myself. I actually missed you. I'm gonna continue watching this video because I know it's gonna be great.

[@TheSquaretoSpare]

You’re so sweet Sophia! I don’t have as much free time as I used to to create videos but will always return when I have something good to share ❤️

[@adelina19191]

So excited, your channel is literally so underrated, this doll house looks great💕❤

[@janice8523]

You must be an architect or an engineer, because no ordinary person can do this…you are so precise and perfect…you are so amazing at this!

[@Lisargarza]

I thought the same thing. If you aren’t an architect, you should be!

[@christineingram55]

Wow! This is so beautiful..I love the changes you made,it’s made the rooms look lighter and the staircase is a better way than the boring one level ladder type they use.I love the bit of landing before you continue to go up the stairs.It gives you chance to display plants ot a small table with a lamp or other feature on there. It’s a really well thought out house.I love it 🥰

[@NitroPunksMightHeads]

Thanks algorithm for suggesting such a cozy video. I feel so relaxed from watching this dollhouse get built!

[@zeej80]

Damn, that’s one GORGEOUS looking house!! U make it look so easy! The stairs, railings, extending the whole house, making the additional attic window- it looks amazing! U inspire me so much with my 1/48 scale house that I’m creating!

[@IINK9]

The lighting idea is genius! I’m going to do something similar for the smaller bungalow kit. Thanks for sharing!

[@leighlyle2304]

I love that wood chopping gizmo you have - it looks like an angry lizard

[@BooshojoSenshi]

Wow, this house is huge! Loving the look and the changes you've made. The wood stain is beautiful. Can't wait to see more on this project!

[@b.africa1348]

I had to physically step away from my computer once you revealed those "hard wood floors"! Are you kidding me?! BEYOND STUNNING 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you for a gorgeous and thoroughly therapeutic video😌💗

[@user-zv3lj1ef7l]

I cannot believe this is the same house I built. Your craftsmanship skills are second to none. I LOVE watching your videos. That oriental english accent is soft and SWEET!

[@jcortese3300]

This is a marvel, and I'm not even a miniaturist. And the fact that mini table saws even exist brings me endless joy!

[@MajesticNin]

I can't wait to see it fully. All of the shorts just isn't enough to show us the full dollhouse

[@Taracinablue]

What a great project! I got into miniatures as a young teen; I built a kit called the Westville. It's sitting in storage now, 98% complete, in a protective box my dad built for it. Someday when I get my own place, I hope there's room to free it, finish it, and display it.

[@fuchsfarben]

I've never seen such a tiny saw, I need to get one of those :D This house is huge! So looking forward to how it's going to develop.

[@squeakysquirrel3852]

I love the modifications you do on these projects, you're so talented! And I always love the stir stick tossing, lol! Keep creating, you're so inspiring!

[@LadyartAngelaCook-Lykes]

I love this. Could you do a full size modern barbie doll house. I'd love to see that with fully working pieces. I'm tired of seeing ppl make plastic stuff that doesn't look real. Your things look realistic. Keep up the great work!❤

[@teresitabolivar-gouzy1019]

Beautiful!! I love the changes you make to the actual kits.. Can't wait to see the rest of the videos. Thanks so much for sharing

Brilliant ideas in this video! You solved a couple of construction problems for me ... namely the magnets on the ceiling and the light panels. I now know exactly how I am going to finish the dollhouse I am working on. Thanks so much for sharing your vast knowledge! 👍🪟🛋🪑🚪🪞🛏🪟😀

[@80vs45]

Love watching your customisation to this dollhouse! 💕

[@BahliPadma]

Hearing the excitement in your voice as you talk about the "massive dollhouse" (and it IS!) was all it took to sell me on watching the entire video. It's always a pleasure to watch you build, but on this scale is really cool! 🤩 I have no idea how I missed this but I'm excited to catch up on what I've missed. Happy crafting!

[@hanchenmeyer3069]

Absolutely gorgeous! Can't wait to see how this project unfolds ❤

[@PandoraBoxPanda]

I love the idea of the lights, I wouldn’t have thought of doing it that way, and I love the changes 🥰

[@BentleyHouseMinis]

It's beautiful and I am so excited to follow along with this project!

[@kerriskuce4430]

I’ve had a growing addiction to minis over the past 15 years and have completed several projects I’m proud of following instructions and customising some store bought minis. I have watched every tutorial you have and you are by far the best at providing tips at “kit bashing” as I do not typically follow kit guidelines either. I love your tool links and have purchased several of your suggestions. Some things I already had on hand. My next purchase is the resin printer and finish kit. The 3d printer has brought my 15 yr old daughter back into my passion for minis. Thank you so much for your simple, yet thorough aids! Can’t wait for your next tutorial!

[@chadbassig9801]

Every inch was worth the wait! Thanks for this breath-of-fresh-air content. Just what I need amidst all toxicity. 💙💙💙

I missed your videos so much! You are literally my favorite artist/crafter/miniature maker in youtube. I hope to see more of this creation soon!

[@marlenet5115]

I watched your entire video, in awe of how you created each section. I just found it randomly searching for dollhouse rooms. I have a small dollhouse (my first) that I have yet to put together. I've always wanted one but never had the time to make one. This is the BEST video of building a custom dollhouse that I've ever seen 😮 I've subscribed to see more. Thank you for this wonderful video, and I look forward to seeing the rest of this house. It's awesome! ❤❤❤

[@christyoxendine]

This was awesome and as always I love your customization and narration! I'm excited to see the interior!

[@Sveedle187]

I love how positive you are and creative!

[@chelseahill1257]

Your work is always amazing…but this is just stunning!!! You make kit bashing look easy and your results are beautiful, functional and logical. I can’t wait to see what you do next. You’ve given me so much inspiration and I look forward to using some of your ideas on future products. I’m glad you like the table saw…I just got one but haven’t tried it yet.

[@heathertaylor-willockx3632]

I just want to comment to say that I learn so much from each of your videos. I've been doing dollhouses in 1/2 and 1/24 scale for many years now, and I still learn new things from you all the time. Please keep sharing! And the house is beautiful

[@heatherbrenner8275]

I love it. Completly building a house like this from scratch is a thing I've wanted to do for a long time.

[@rhondalong152]

I LOVE the changes you made to the original dollhouse. I wish I had the confidence to do that.

[@teddymackerel]

im in awe. so excited to see the next steps you take with this project

[@venomlily1651]

I love dollhouses . Could you maybe show us how to do a dollhouse in 1:6 scale for Barbie dolls next time ? I can't stand store bought dollhouses, because they're mostly just empty frames . I had 1 when I was a kid, and I always wondered, " If Barbie came to life ( in the same height she was created), would she feel comfortable living here ? I felt the same way about her furniture and her vehicles . So, I've always dreamed of making a deluxe dollhouse for Barbie with all the modern conveniences of a real house . I plan to make a dollhouse that has at least 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, huge kitchen and dining room and a deluxe wash room basement and entertainment center, complete with a pool table, a gameroom section for her kids, ping pong table and a Japanese style snack and drink machine and a microwave .

[@rosesanderson4625]

I'm entertaining the idea of a full 1:6 dollhouse and it's not something you really see. I think the biggest reason is just sheer size of the finished product. Most people don't have the space for a house double the size of a regular dollhouse.

[@aliciabrooks4094]

I'd love a house like that because my brother has a small room and I think it's not fear he's ( 18 ) now and I've got such a bg room and I sleep in my mom's bed 😂😂😂

I just found your channel and that house is amazing. I used to build dollhouses with my dad (over 30 years ago) and he was the type to suggest changing this or that, to a point where the house we ultimately finished looked nothing like the kit, but was absolutely beautiful (albeit so heavy it couldn’t be moved without taking it apart😢). I almost forgot about those times, and my dad would have absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVED your build and creativity. ❤❤
