Making Miniatures: Projects for the 1/12 Scale Dolls' House

by Christiane Berridge

From a charming French café to an Arabian tent decorated with exotic rugs and wall hangings, this delightful compilation of 22 unique projects, done in standard 1/12 size, will enchant doll house enthusiasts and other miniaturists. All that’s needed is some basic equipment and the desire to create imaginative miniature worlds. A Swedish Bedroom features red-and-white gingham fabric throughout, while the Floral Morning Room has scented forget-me-not wallpaper and a doll seated at a tiny skirted table set for tea. You can also craft a greenhouse, Japanese garden, general store, or theater box, along with pretty polymer clay people to populate each lovely space you make.

Some great ideas in here, but also some questionably dated ones. (Arabian tent and what looks like a lawn jockey in the toy store? I dunno.)
