DIY: Finger Puppet Theater

I purchased some cute finger puppets from Amazon for my niece as part of her birthday gift.
I didn't want to just give her the puppets, so I decided I would make her a quick puppet theater. I wanted one that would be very girly, can stand up on it's own (on a table top), and could fold up easily for storage. I decided to use and old priority mail box I had lying around. I cut the tops and bottoms off. I then cut down the middle of one of the panels and then cut a square opening on the other.

I covered the entire box (inside and out) in scrapbook paper (I used K & Co. WB Gypsy Baby Paper Pad which is no longer available). Then I used one of the long top flaps I had cut off earlier and used it as a sign on top. I used some glitter chipboard letters. I also used some white tulle scraps I had and some ribbon to create the curtains. For the curtain rod I used a chop stick.
My niece really liked her new puppet show stage.

Lalaloopsy Dollhouse

Little dollhouse I made for my niece so she can play with her mini Lalaloopsy dolls and furniture. Made from photo boxes purchased at Michaels and covered with scrapbooking paper to look like wallpaper. The house inspiration came from The Crafty LadyBug. The dresser and kitchen shelves were made from matchboxes inspired by Homemade City. The windows and Lalaloopsy pictures were cut out from the boxes the dolls came in.
