My card board box doll house
This is a picture of the doll house I am making from old boxes. I find this very therapeutic.

Thanks, I'm Getting plenty of good use out of my old boxes. I am glad I did not throw them away. I take junk and make something useful from it.😊

What kind of glue or tape are you using to keep it stable?

@MistyMagic
Thank you, Misty. I am using a combination of Hot glue and Scotts spray-on adhesive to glue the boxes down. Then, I put a cardboard ribbing around it to support it. In some of the tricky areas, I use masking tape so I can paint over it. The Spray adhesive is good for the wallpaper.❤️
@WorkingitThrough2 how did you get on with hot glue? I seem to get a mess and gets Sticky and lol.
@MistyMagic
Misty, with lots of burned fingertips and a bunch of Prayers 😂. No kidding, it is a work of art to keep putting in all the nooks and crannies and then to take and a razor knife and cut off any overflow.😊
@WorkingitThrough2 amazing work then, well done!
@WorkingitThrough2
I hope you have silicone fingertip protectors? Not only do they help prevent burns they make working with hot glue so much easier! I like how I can then press the hot glue into the space I want/flatten it etc., and once the hot glue cools a bit it won't stick to the silicone at all. I can also use them to remove some 'excess' glue.
@EmotionsListener
I just found some, and thanks. Those glue burns hurt😄
@WorkingitThrough2
Wow I love it! It looks awesome!
@dream88catcher

😊Did you see the Diaper cakes below
@WorkingitThrough2
These Diaper cakes make great gifts. This gift included:
Socks. bibs, wash clothes. shoes, bottles, diaper wipes, but paste, fingernail clippers, receiving blankets tee shirts, and two outfits.
Instructions: one box of diapers, roll them the long way and put a piece of tape to hold it. together. Get a large round container such as a big round pot or bowl. Begin to lay the diapers all along the bowel until you have packed as many as you can inside, get three large rubber bands and place them around all the diapers. You will need a round piece of cardboard and a paper towel roll place the diapers in the center of the cardboard and insert the paper towel roll in the center of the diapers
now begin to add your baby items as you chose, secured by the rubber bands. That it it😊
@WorkingitThrough2 Wow! Such a practical gift! I love your designs and thank you for the detailed instructions. I'll make one for my nieces following your ideas. 🤗
@dream88catcher
I am glad you like them. They make awesome gifts😃
