POP-UP PAPER HOUSE

This two story, eight room, fully furnished house contains all the small details of a home, down to the very last toothbrush. No paper craft experience is needed to complete this project, but with a few inexpensive tools and materials a twelve year old child will enjoy the challenge of building this art-filled home. Younger children can run up and down the stairs, jump on the beds, cook, eat and bathe with their two fingers. At the end of the day, fold up your house and put it away.

 

For ages 7 and up (for playing) & 12 and up (for making).

THE HOUSE COMES IN TWO DIFFERENT SIZES.

The saddle stitch bound edition is printed on letter sized paper. This means the rooms are slightly smaller (5" x 5" x 5") BUT you will be able to easily download and print replacement rooms if you need them. List price is $25.01 (so you can get free shipping on Amazon) but it is discounted to $22.51 (or less if you use the coupon below) when you buy it directly from Lulu. PDF downloads are precisely the same size as this printed book, and can be printed with any regular color printer.

The deluxe coil bound edition is printed on A4 paper, so each room measures just under 6" x 6" x 6". The completed house measures one cubic foot, and it folds down to 12" x 12" x 1.25
You can also use the downloaded rooms for replacements, but you will need A4 or legal sized paper and to scale the files by 118% when you print. Available exclusively on Lulu for $22.91

 

Buy any printed book before December 14, 2011, and take 25% off the discounted price by using the code "BUYMYBOOK305" at check-out.

MAKE YOUR OWN HOUSE

book cover

Printed versions available for under $23 with saddle stitch or coil binding. The full color book, including all the necessary templates and instructions, will ship in 3-5 business days. The 80lb paper is easy to cut and fold, but since each room is made of two interlocking pop-up cards, the furniture is still surprisingly sturdy.

PDF downloads of either the whole house or individual rooms are available for instant gratification. With prices starting at $2, this is a good choice if you are on a tight budget or if you'd just like to practice.
