Here’s my latest a little coconut house. The first picture is the original. I used Pet’s door, coconut, and pre-cut fence. I felt a bit guilty using his fence but I have to tell you it's great, I love it!

It's lovely. Beautiful colors and such nice work! May I ask what you used for flat base? |

Hi Laney, The base for this house and what i use for most of my Dolly houses is a heavy/medium chipboard. I have purchased this from several manufacturers. I still have the label for this one. It's Jack Richeson & Co. It's labeled all purpose chipboard 2.2 mm, I measured it at 3/32 of an inch. Sometimes the cut edges separates especially when I used this for trees, easy solution a bit of white glue and it's good as new. Sometimes it hard finding the right six because most are only labeled medium wait. I hope thid helps. |
