I thought it was a house made completely of dust, too.

Now I'm all disenchanted.

Thread should be: dollhouses covered in vacuum cleaner dust.

I was also fooled. I saw this on Boing Boing first and assumed it was a dust house, not a dust covered house.

Still, it might be kind of fun to make. I can imagine (without following any of the links to find out for sure) that she took a little spray on adhesive, like 3M Super 77, and then used a reversable shop vac to blow dust onto the now-sticky house. It would be dusty, and you would want to do it outside, but it could be really quick. I bet you could do a house in 5 minutes. Go into production.
