Kitchen Diva Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I received a Lily doll house from my son 18 yrs ago for caring for his wife and their newborn twins. To say that I have procrastinated is an understatement. They just turned 18 and I am just beginning the doll house! I am already lost at the doors. I wish there were pictures of what to do along with the directions. Just looking at the box does not really help and I an afraid I may have already messed up by separating all the perforated pieces of the doors! Any help would be appreciated.

Mid-life madness Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Welcome Charlene, I have not built the Lily, but I recommend labeling the pieces you have removed, and then label anything else you remove with the sheet number and piece number. Here is a blog from one of our members showing construction. http://minisontheedge.blogspot.com/2011/06/lily-dollhouse-build-blog-day-1-shell.html Everything is fixable, so don't stress. You can ask @fov to change your member name. She probably will see this post since I noted her. You can message her privately as well, just hover the curser over her highlighted name and the is a message icon at the bottom. ~~~~~Good luck, and ask questions~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbytsdy Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Welcome, Charlene! The Lily was the very first house that I built, back in 2006, and boy did I learn alot on that house! (Like, don't paint over surfaces that need to be glued together... ) I have gotten a second Lily kit and intend to try it again after 13 years. I'm thinking egg-carton brick exterior. Looking forward to seeing your build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
