In this episode of my Dollhouse Makeover series, I’m tackling a kitchen fix I’ve been meaning to do for a while… repairing the gap between the worktop and cupboards in my 1:12 scale dollhouse kitchen!
I’m also building a brand new miniature oven and hob unit, designed into a kitchen island to suit the open-plan layout of my doll’s house apartment. It’s a cosy crafting vlog where I take you behind the scenes as I make and tweak these miniatures, step by step.

🪑A little bit of information about my doll’s house:
I’m currently transforming this second hand doll’s house, which I bought from a charity shop at my local recycling centre, into a twelfth scale converted warehouse with a miniature modern art gallery below and a mid-century modern / scandi-style apartment above. I document each part of the makeover here on my YouTube channel – from an interior restructure to miniature furniture and accessories… I plan on trying to make it all! If you’d like to watch previous videos, please have a look at my playlist, where you can see the doll’s house makeover from the start!

Just a quick mention about te rest of my arty projects, just in case you’re interested! ☺️ As well as making miniatures as a hobby, I also illustrate and paint! I have my own little business, also called The Little Mouse’s House, where I sell custom pet portraits, art prints and greeting cards. If you’d like to take a look at my website, here’s the link:

Thank you so much to everyone who chooses to purchase from my little shop – it means the world to me! ✨ (I’m not sure if I have to say that this is an advert… so, just in case, this last section of the description is an advert for my own independent art and illustration business!)
