DIY Cardboard Doll Room: Resize Sweet Spaces for 1/6 Scale Dolls

Creating a 1/6 Scale Doll Room

• 🎯 The goal is to resize the "Sweet Spaces" corner room concept to fit 1/6 scale dolls, making it suitable for storage on cube shelves.
• 📏 The room dimensions are set at 13x3 inches to fit standard cube shelves.

Constructing the Cardboard Room

• 🧱 Two 13x13 inch cardboard rectangles are glued together for wall strength, and a similar layered approach is used for the floor, creating a lip for wall attachment.
• 🏠 The walls are covered with pink contact paper and the floor with wood grain contact paper to prevent warping from moisture.

Interchangeable Wallpaper System

• 💡 A system using 3/4 inch strips of poster board is created to allow for easy wallpaper changes.
• 🖼️ Smaller strips of poster board (1/2 inch and 1/4 inch) are glued to the back of the walls, creating a channel where scrapbook paper can be slid in to change the wall color.
• 🧲 Magnets are used to help hold the scrapbook paper in place, with a caution about potential hazards for younger collectors.

DIY Doll Room Accessories

• 🌿 A vine of leaves is crafted from card stock, bent for dimension, and attached with magnets for removable wall decor.
• 🛠️ Magnetic shelves are constructed by layering and gluing card stock strips, allowing for customizable placement.
• 🎶 Miniature albums, covered in clear tape for durability, are displayed on the shelves.
• 🚪 A detailed wardrobe is built from paper board and wooden dowels, including a functional drawer and a clothing rack.
• 🛏️ A bed is made for a petite Barbie using cardboard, felt, and fabric, complete with a headboard and bedding.
• 🧶 A small rug is created by braiding and gluing yarn onto felt.

Sweet Spaces Inspiration and Miniatures

• ✨ The project aims to replicate the "Sweet Spaces" bedroom inspiration in a 1/6 scale.
• 🎁 Sweet Spaces surprise boxes are unboxed, revealing miniature items like stickers, a notebook, a plant, and organizers that can be used as room clutter or decor.
