Make your own Mouse Mansion
Discover how to build, furnish and decorate your own miniature world — from a simple cardboard box to a fully furnished Mouse Mansion.
Where do I start?It's easier than you think!
Building your own Mouse Mansion is simple — all you need is a cardboard box and some creativity. Follow these four steps to get started.
Choose a box
Any cardboard box will do. A shoe box, wine box or even a moving box — the bigger the box, the bigger your mansion!
Wallpaper & floors
Print our free wallpaper designs or paint the walls yourself. Use popsicle sticks for floorboards — suddenly it looks like a real room!
Make furniture
Build tiny chairs, tables and beds from recycled materials — matchboxes, bottle caps, wooden beads and more.
Add the details
Tiny books, lamps, paintings, clay food and flowers — these finishing touches bring your rooms to life. This is where the magic happens!
