It is amazing what may be constructed from card with a bit of imagination and a lot of patience. After our workshop leader, Pinky, had shown us a tiny house that she had made from cardboard, sticking it together with a glue gun, we were free to create our own. I had brought a small Persil box with me and I planned to stick it together with brown sticky paper tape.
I did not have enough time to decorate my little house. I even forgot to photograph it.

Later, at home, I decided that the decorations of these little houses looked the most fun. So I made another cardboard house on which to try. This time I cut up the card envelope from an Amazon book delivery, holding it together with the licky-sticky tape.To add texture to the walls of the house I stuck on pieces of kitchen roll with PVA adhesive. The roof tiles I made with strips of card. My pièce de résistance was the chimney pots. For these I used the holders which had been supplied with my teepee dental brushes.The finished house was the perfect size for two tiny dolls that I had been given by my sister-in-law.
