9 Free Dollhouse Plans

When it comes to dollhouses, most people prefer to buy a wooden dollhouse kit. It contains everything you need to make your very own dollhouse.

Yet others want to make a dollhouse themselves. The DIY approach has many benefits: It’s relatively inexpensive, gives you an opportunity to personalize your dollhouse, and lets you create a treasured memory with any fellow builders. 

If that sounds like you, you’ll no doubt want some tips on how to make a dollhouse yourself. 

There are two ways to make a dollhouse: freeform or with a dollhouse plan. A dollhouse plan is a popular option because it gives you a step-by-step process to follow. Here are some of the best free dollhouse plans worth considering.

Enjoy and good luck!
