Make a Cardboard Dollhouse Part 13: Adding Lights

I found some very economical lights on amazon.com. For 11 dollars you get six strings of lights and the batteries are included.

Here: LED Light Strings

 

You have a lot of options with lighting and you can get very creative. For example I folded up the end of a string to form a chandelier.

Use cellophane tape to tape the lights into place.

 

Then secure the lighting with white glue. Don't use hot glue gun on the lights. The hot glue can melt the wires.

One string of lights will work for both floors of the dollhouse.

 

 

 

And that's it. Your Dollhouse is complete. Have fun!

Here are the LED lights that I purchased from Amazon.com for this project:

LED Lights

This packet of LED's is a terrific bargain. I have used them for many projects. You get six strings of LED's with lots of lights on each string. And the strings are all 7 feet in length. And... it comes already loaded with the batteries and on/off switch. These are literally ready to go.
