I have never installed lamps or wall fixtures that could be seen from the other side of the wall. So I made a wall and floor templates out of a $10 pack of mat boards from Hobby Lobby before the coupon but it was enough to do floors and walls for the entire house with a few left over. I attached the scrapbook paper to the mat boards with spray adhesive and matched the designs up on all the boards. I used hardwire and cooper tape to light the house, the first transformer was too small and my lights got dimmer the more I added to the system and I lost a couple of bulbs.
Because this is a front opening dollhouse there are holes in the ceiling, back walls and groves in the floors for wiring, which is great. The wiring is suppose to attach to the back of the house but my back has a courtyard.
So I ran the wires to the inside back walls instead which had to be hidden but accessible. I attached hook and loop disks to the walls that I picked up from the sewing department and placed them on the back of the mat board wall templates, tile sheets and on the light fixture in the bathroom ceiling to easily remove them as needed.
