For my next round-up, I scoured Amazon for the top-rated Prime-eligible dollhouse kits.
I've had a long-time fascination with dollhouses and miniatures, going back to childhood. There's just something so adorable about anything miniature!
Building your own dollhouse or miniatures set can be such a fun DIY project. You really have to pay attention to detail and it's easy to get lost in the craft and spend hours on it at a time. They can also be a good project to do with an older child for some crafty family bonding time.
Most of the kits do not include glue or batteries (for the kits that have light features) so plan accordingly. Some of them didn't provide information on the scale, but all of the ones that did mention it are 1/24 scale (1/2").
Detailed Dollhouse Kits
First up are the full house kits packed with tons of detailed decorative accents and furniture.
The Blue and White Town Series includes a pool, piano, and light fixtures.
You can also purchase a music box to add to the Irish Country House kit for a little extra fun.
An artsy beach house: Aegean Sea Series
The Seattle house has a music room and ornate details.
A cute little beach house complete with a sailboat.
I love all the colorful decor in this little house.
This one is called "Tale of Blue Sea," which is fitting for the nautical theme and lifeguard tower.
Miniatures Kits: Shops and Restaurants
This category especially makes me squeal with how adorable they all are. I want to get them all and make a whole town!
There are several options in this listing, but the flower shop is my favorite.
So many adorable details in this coffee shop, like rustic wooden signs.
Another listing with several options, the book shop is my favorite.
A coffee AND cake shop -- two of my favorite things!
This sushi restaurant is another fun option with lots of realistic details.
A cute little cake shop plus doggie!
I almost didn't include yet another cake shop, but that little red mailbox was too cute to leave out.
A funky ice cream shop
Miniatures Kits: Rooms and Apartments
Super cute PINK camper van
An apartment balcony

Classic, Unfurnished Dollhouse Kits
These come unpainted so you can really customize them to make them the dollhouse of your dreams!
The Fairfield Dollhouse Kit would be a great starter kit, with its classic Victorian style 3-story design.
The Harrison is a big step up in price, but it makes a beautiful Tudor mansion with a secret room.
