DIYer Upcycles Old Plastic Dollhouse Into A Sweet Gingerbread House

Christmas is the time of the year when everybody is making gingerbread houses. I have yet to take part in this tradition, but I have a good excuse for that — I'm not the best baker.

But, what if I told you that you could turn an old dollhouse into the cutest gingerbread house around, huh? I can get on board with that.

If you have one of these old, pink dollhouses lying around, here's the most festive holiday DIY project you can try.

Why not turn it into a beautiful gingerbread house right in time for the holidays? That's exactly what one DIYer on Facebook named Theresa Carbone did. What do you think of this idea?

You can make it look as good as this. Can you believe the transition here?

Wow, talk about a total overhaul of this dollhouse compared to how it looked before, huh? I think this is so festive. I absolutely love it. What about you?

Since Carbone has shared her project online, numerous people have reshared her post and praised her creativity.

If I didn't know, I would have thought this was an actual, edible gingerbread house.

Look at all the snow that completely resembles icing to me. I think this looks so spectacular. What a great job Carbone did, right?

Wow, and how about all these details here?

It must have taken some painstaking work for sure. I don't know if I would have the patience to do it.

And then it even lights up at night, too. Now, I'm really impressed by it.

It's just the kind of feel-good holiday spirit that we all need to see. Don't you think? I think the whole family would simply adore it.

This gingerbread house makes me want to look for old dollhouses for sale.

I'd love to turn one of them into a masterpiece like this one. I don't know if I can do as good of a job, but I can sure try.

How would you feel if you had something as festive as this on your holiday mantle?

Wouldn't that be the icing on the cake or what? I would put it right next to my Christmas tree for the ultimate holiday cheer.

If this house wasn't enough inspiration for you, I've got another amazing one to share with you.
