Measurements for the dog/cat house mini album stand
I use 2mm thick chipboard to make the house study but if you don`t have that you can glue thinner chipboard together.
Roof and mini album cover. This roof can also be glued on with hinges and store an album with regular cover inside as I show in part 10 of the mini album tutorial.
Dog house front and back
Sides
Bottom
You can just make this and skip the rest with the drawer if you like.
Measurements for the dog house inside room.
The house can be glued direct on the bottom plate with hinges ore make a " secret " room under the house. Here you also can store a regular album that I show how to make in part 10 in the mini album tutorial.
Measurements entrance
Measurements for the bottom sides and front drawer.
Inside the stand we need some partitions and support to hold the house study.
Measurements for the drawer
All glues together with paper hinges. Cut 1 inch strips and score at 1/2
Here are the measurements for a regular cover if you want to make an album to store inside the dog house.
