Hi everyone, I had so much fun last month making my first house out of cardboard when I created the San Francisco House that I wanted to create another one from cardboard. I was inspired by this picture I found on the internet of an abandoned house that someone had drawn. When I started out this house had both sides, but it was to large of a house for what I wanted, so I cut the right side of the house off. This was one of my hardest designs to try to create since when I started looking at the inspiration picture that there was not one truly even square or realistic edge in the picture. The porch was also a challenge trying to create it from the picture but I think it turned out darn awesome. I think I spent about 2 weeks this May creating this Haunted Mansion and it was so much fun and enjoyable using the cardboard. Yes it kills my hands to do the Thousands of cuts to create the house but so worth it. I am loving Cardboard and love how I can design so much from it at a Low cost compared to using the fancy Expensive Wood that you have to buy at dollhouse shops. I spent one day alone creating the interior cardboard boxes and trash and newspapers for the interior, plus I didn't have any fireplaces to put into the home so I created some out of cardboard...lol.. I also am loving how the aged patina came out with the painting process of the house, which for the life of me I don't know if I can remember how to recreate it again. Again the use of cardboard made the house so light, but also so hard and sturdy. I hope you all like my newest creation. Have a Wonderful Month! Stan
The Do-it-Yourself Haunted House Decoration Kit is available for immediate shipping. Makes a great Christmas present. Order now in time for Christmas. I’ve taken one of my favorite computer generated illustrations from my large stage set design, and made it into tabletop size. (You can find the How-to book for building that 30 foot x 25 foot stage set right here in my Etsy shop) The decoration kit consists of a 24 inch x 37 inch, thick, quality stock paper, printed with all of the pieces for the house on it. There are 16 basic pieces to the project and additional “extras” to add on after the basic build of the house facade is done. Included is an 8-page, full-color, instruction booklet with over 60 photos that demonstrate exactly how to make the house facade successfully, including how to add the creepy curtains and yard treatment. All of the tools and materials are listed in the booklet and they are few and inexpensive. Using one black, FOAM, bi-fold project display board, (the kind we use for science projects) a sheet of regular, black poster board, scissors, spray adhesive (I recommend Loctite), an Exacto knife/extra blades, and a glue gun, you simply adhere the pieces printed on the sheet to the display board or poster board, where designated. Then you cut out the pieces, and assemble them using a glue gun. If you want a back to the house, get and additional piece of regular foam board for that. I've included a little foam pumpkin, a little jointed plastic skeleton, enough gauze to make the curtains, and some web. (You can see the pumpkin, skeleton, webs, and gauze curtains in my finished project photo) The finished house facade is 20 inches x 26 inches and is attached to a 9 inch x 20 inch base, perfect to set on a buffet table, a mantle, or anywhere you want a Halloween accent piece. Use your own ideas to accessorize the look with lights, Halloween characters, or your own special touches. (You see mine in the photos) It is fun to make and will give you years of enjoyment! It is a great family project and can be done in a couple of days. FREE SHIPPING IN UNITED STATES ONLY. I DO ship out of the US at current shipping costs and work out special deals for international customers, usually offering two kits shipped as one, to offset the high cost of shipping.

Because spooky girls need spooky dollhouses It all began when i introduced my son to Scooby Doo. This started his obsession with haunted houses and all things with spooky, haunted, and creepy in the name. This is where the dollhouse comes in. I had decided on making my son a haunted house to play with his Mystery Inc toys with. I'll admit, this was super fun to make and i was really excited to get started. So heres the Fisher Price house i bought off someone on facebook. Prime Time 2 cans

Today I am VERY excited to share my 1" scale (1/12 scale) scratch built replica of the creepy house from the new 2017 Stephen King movie "IT". I really loved the film and thought the production design was amazing! As soon I saw this house in the film I KNEW I had to re-create it in miniature. The entire thing was created from scratch, using pictures from the set that was built for the film in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. Here is the original set from the film "IT" that was built in Oshawa Ontario, Canada. I did a lot of guessing on dimensions since the film isn't out yet on Blue Ray, but I think I got pretty close. So many late-night hours and all my spare time, fueled by passion and my love for horror films! This miniature is 46"wide, 30"deep and 30"high! It includes light up interior and a full front yard and fences as seen in the film. Took me about 2 months to complete. Please enjoy these pics of the model as well as some "Behind the Scenes" at the end. Be sure to check out some my other models and miniatures as well! Enjoy! This entire model is on a 1" dense Styrofoam base because it is lightweight and easy to add grass and posts. etc. I decided to only do partial yard and minimal depth so it was easy for display. I imagine this was the view the actors has when they came onto the set for the first time. Inside the house there is a light glow created with strips of LED lighting. Cost and energy efficient as well as safe for paper structures. The tree is a recreation of the custom tree made for the film. It is created from a wire base, paper and tape on top, then a air dry modeling compound over top. The steps and porch are decaying and sagging into the earth. I was very difficult to create that tilted look when building. The Victorian fencing is the only thing I had to order for the model, although it was very similar and needed very little alterations. The gate and posts however were created form leftover parts of the fence. The number 29 was made from elastic bands. I used local vines from my yard to create the vines around the fence. Adding real elements really sells the scale. The chain link fence is created from dollar store craft mesh. I coated it with latex paint for durability and flexibility. The posts are made from wooden dowels and wire wrapped in tape for a custom design. This sign was a small print out from the set photos, glued to card stock and then hung with wire thread. Here is my fingers to show you the scale lol.....sorry about my builders nails.... I added blended craft moss on the tree for aged effect Creating wood in miniature is pretty difficult but rotted 100 yr old tree is even harder! The tall grass in the yard was created from a $3 dollar store broom. I just cut off the bristles and glued then in. Turned out amazing!! The sidewalk is made from grey craft foam paper then grouted with blended mosses. In the film the sidewalk is mostly covered, but I thought it should be showcased The sunflowers are all built from scratch with paper, wire and an old plastic houseplant. I did a white wash effect on the trim and porch for a weathered paint look The steps were created with the droop in the middle for an old effect. The porch was created with dollhouse wood trims and dowels. More of the vine work and moss. I glued all mosses in place to maintain the design in movement. The leading is just markered onto the newspaper window covering for a stained glass effect. More mosses and leaves. The dead vines are craft store vines..very inexpensive. The shingles are made from card stock. The newspapers on the windows are the same in the film. I just printed old newspaper articles and then put packing tape on the front for durability and shimmer. The gutters are made from large Bubble tea Straws cut in half and bent to look like Victorian gutters. Each leaf was hand cut and painted. The Victorian finial is just card-stock and elastic bands. Some of the window details The roof line is very shallow, which is the same on the original set. Its a "Forced Perspective" effect when viewed from the ground (Camera view) All the shutters were created from scrtach using card stock, wood and masking tape. The siding is made from pizza boxes! The vines are a combo of real vines, craft store vines and painted wire. The foundation rock work is just carved foam core and paint. The downspouts are drinking bendy straws. Perfect as they are!! I had to add the basement windows as seen in the film, but I decided to not cover them so light could come through. The ground-cover is just craft store moss. The railing and circular balusters are hand cut out of matte board. My roof overhang is a bit longer than the films. These steps are so cool! I just love the different textures and colors that interact with each other. A true testament to the film production design team! There is an old piece of fence against the tree in the film...so i put one here too :) The gutters get a green weathered copper patina This alcove is cool! Thanks again for checking this out!!

Today is Halloween – my favorite holiday of the year – so today I’m celebrating by showing you the final room of my dollhouse. Thank you for humoring me with my super weird obses…
I've put together a couple of goth/haunted house/witchy/ etc. minis in time for the Halloween season, a canopy bed and a goth curiosities cabinet as pictured below: A little spell board and spell book sit on the bed as though set aside for a moment :) The glare on the glass is making the magnified tarantula spider in the bottom right hand side of the cabinet not show up in the pictures. In person it's completely clear :( These really aren't good pictures (too early in the morning outside for good light so I'll have to reshoot them later today). And now more reshoots of Sherry's jewelry: Man I love my new camera! So much better pictures :) All jewelry available here in Sherry's store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/HauntedMansionJewels?ref=usr_faveitems&atr_uid=7202128
