I designed a doll house yesterday, other than two slots being in the wrong place it went together surprisingly well. In the photos the two large pieces on the upper roof are not glued down yet because I need to remake them with the slots in the proper place.
I plan to sell these as kits in my store front, and at craft sales and I would like suggestions or critiques on how I could make it better.
I would also like to ask If I should engrave shingles on the roof or leave it as is and let the customers add shingles to it if they want. I am thinking if the customers add their own shingles it will cover up the slot and tab construction on the roof. The slots and tabs on the corner of the house can be hidden by painting the corner trim and then the only place where the slots and tabs will be visible is on the sides where the floors tie into the walls and that could be hidden a bit by sanding of the burned edges of the tabs before assembling.
I intend to sell the kit in the $35 range. It is roughly 1/2 scale and about 11" tall
So give me your thoughts, don't hold back. The more points of view the better.
