How to Build a Guinea Pig Hamster Cage MANSION

Hello! I would do anything for my little precious 9 year old and her Guinea Pig LUCY. YES, Honestly....I made this the day before I found Instructables <NOT INTENDED FOR HERE> so i can now build her a Treehouse.  Amazingly so, I noticed the PET contest and entered it in immediately! I converted her Barbie 3 story dollhouse into an amazing home for Lucy! Best Part: I found all materials around the house. Didn't purchase a thing! Santa brought the Dollhouse 2 years ago!

Step 1 Supplies & Tools Needed

1.  Dollhouse NOT used for "primary purpose" anymore (she is done playing dolls)
2.  Plastic Outdoor/Lawn & Garden Fencing/Netting~I needed 3' x 4' (substitute with anything that works )
3.  You must measure your dollhouse for accurate dimensions
4.  Hot Glue Gun & 6- 8 long glue sticks
5.  Spray Paint (Optional)
6.  Paper Clips 12-20
7.  Electric Staple Gun 
8.  Wood 2 inches in height and cut to fit dollhouse dimensions. Razor Knife (easier) or scissors to trim netting
9.  Your "already available" basic guinea pig or hampster supplies

excellent job even an elevator id like to see that in action!

Thanks so much! I'm new here, but VERY willing to take a video of Lucy "loving life" on the elevator. The knob to turn it is on the side (pink) near the water bottle. Be cool if I could add a video to my "already posted" instructable???? Possible?

[Kiteman]

Yes, very possible (I did the same with my bottle-top whistle) - post the video to YouTube, then use the embed code to add it to the Instructable (just click "edit").
