Be mindful of the scale of your dollhouse and try to match up the size of the tiles with the scale you’re working to. Just measure the width of the floorboards you require and cut the laminate sample using a ruler and craft knife.

You can fix the wood down with wood glue, being careful not to use too much in case the glue seeps out between the floorboards. https://youtu.be/nMJzYPrG_uU Video can’t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: DIY Miniature – Hardwood Floors (Herringbone) (https://youtu.be/nMJzYPrG_uU) Before we get started, I just wanted to walk you through the style options for wooden dollhouse flooring.
