Cardboard box dollhouse

Turning a cardboard box into a dollhouse is a project with endless possibilities. Admittedly, I got into type A mode and obsessed a little over this project so it became mommy's craft. Next time, I will have a box for each of us to decorate or I'll just "let go". I'll let you know how that turns out... 
First, I took an old boot box with lid and cut out windows and a door. I also added a floor in the middle and roof on top.
I then glued scrapbook paper to the walls, floors, and ceilings of each room and the roof. I painted the rest of the box with brown acrylic paint.  
 Living room- I added a sticker frame as wall art, glued silver ribbon to a match box, and to the wall to make a couch.
 Kitchen was decorated using blank note cards. The table stand was cut out of the box that held the note cards together. I will probably just glue pictures of appliances from magazines on the walls to fill in the room without taking up any more space.

 Bedroom  was decorated with scrapbook paper and empty matchbox for the bed. Headboard was cut out from plain white paper. Wall decor still needs to be added.
 Bedroom #2
