Christmas Carol Dollhouse: Victorian Wallpaper





I've been working on the two upstairs rooms in the Christmas Carol Dollhouse. I decided to wallpaper them.
The first room I wallpapered with a gift bag! I loved the colors so much.  It was perfect. So I cut it up and glued it on.
The next room I used a type of tissue paper. It was completely Victorian and I just had to try it out. Both papers worked amazingly well!
For the glue I used watered down Gorilla glue. It was super sticky and I was able to adjust the paper easily just like wallpaper paste.
Special Thanks to Vivi for including the "Bewitched House" in her blog post!

  1. That is absolutely gorgeous! That's awesome that you're using items like that to wallpaper, so creative. Amazing!

    When I was little my dad built me a dollhouse and he cut up a laundry detergent box into miniature bricks (back in the day when it came in boxes) then he painted them in about 5 different brick colors so it looked like used brick:)

  7. The sense of separation from the rest of the world is a significant disadvantage of International IoT SIM card for travel. Because of the high cost of making international phone calls, many individuals feel lonely and homesick when they are separated from their loved ones back home.

  8. I've gone through a few camping equipment nz camping chairs in the past, but I finally found one that ticks all the boxes! It's not only sturdy and durable, but it also provides excellent back support. After a long day of hiking, having a comfortable chair to relax in is a real treat.
