When you’ve lived in your home for many years, there eventually comes a day when you sense a need to change things around. You need to remodel your living space in order to get a new and fresh feeling. The same can be true for your dollhouse. If, over a period of years, you have tried every decorating scheme that you could think of within the current design and you are anxious to try something new, then consider learning how to remodel a dollhouse. This will open a whole new realm of decorating possibilities for you to experiment with and enjoy.

There are a few basic steps that you can take which will not require any extensive deconstruction of the interior of the dollhouse. You can begin by simply moving around some furniture and maybe even go so far as to place it in different rooms. This is a quick and easy way to change not only the look but also the function of your miniature house. Take the décor of one room and completely switch it with another to give the house a fresh look. You may also find that you are able to view some of your miniature pieces from a new angle when you do this, thus increasing your appreciation for the craftsmanship in a whole new way.

If you want to go more in-depth with changing the look of your dollhouse, think of changing the color scheme of the walls or applying wallpaper to the rooms. If you do choose to do a full remodel of a room, take into consideration that you may have to change the carpet or flooring as well. New furniture might also be something you’ll need to purchase if the pieces of miniature collectibles you have no longer match the theme of the rooms you remodel. On the other hand, if you have a cherished piece of furniture that has never really fit into your dollhouse theme, remodeling a room so that the piece fits better might be the answer.

Make that one piece the centerpiece of your room and have everything else, from the wall paint to the art, serve as a complement to the furniture that you love. In some cases, you can dramatically alter the appearance of a room just by changing the focal point. Add a new piece of art, a new lamp, or even a new rug to draw the eye to a portion of the dollhouse room that may have been previously overlooked. Keep in mind that the dollhouse is subject to close scrutiny, so the details of each room are very important. With all of these things in mind, get started and see what kind of plans you can develop to give your dollhouse a fresh new look.
