Assembly Directions for a Madeline Doll House
The Madeline dollhouse was a dollhouse made during the 1990s as a companion playhouse for an 8-inch Madeline doll. The house was made of sturdy cardboard, and included details such as a working doorbell and lantern, doors that opened and closed, and windows that came complete with curtains. The furniture was sold separately. Now, it is possible to find the dollhouse online at auction sites, but the instructions are often missing. It is possible to put the house together without instructions if you follow the correct construction sequence.
