Outstanding Petite Doll Furniture: Modeling Strategies

Using Size to your Benefit for Design

There are three major sizing elements that you will need to deal with in interior layout with a dolls room. The first sizing element of miniatures is the scale, the second is the room dimensions, and third is sizing miniatures next to one another. Miniature scaling refers to the fact that dolls and their furniture come in different sizing patterns. Meaning that if you have a half inch dollhouse that you need to purchase half inch dollhouse furniture. Size element is the second point, and this is as simple as making sure that your furniture will actually fit in the room. Take out a ruler and measure the square inches of the room and compare it to your incoming furniture dimensions. Lastly, the final point is the size of the furniture as it compares to other pieces around it. Larger pieces will have more of a prominence so if you really want to make your china cabinet pop you shouldnt make the dining room table so elaborate.

Accessories: The Little Touches

The real fun with a kit or hobby of this sort is reveling in the small details. Accessories are the china in the kitchen, portraits for the walls, and the books in the bookcase. Adding these into your kit will spruce it up, add a fun touch, and cause visitors to sit and stare. In addition to design, it adds a realistic feel that says people actually live here. So express yourself and personality in the type of china, miniature animals, portraits and more

Wallpaper: A simple Trick for an Outstanding Look

Once you have painted the interior of an entire kit you will realize the value of covering the walls with wallpaper. Not only will the walls have a cute and distinct pattern, but the job will be done in a fraction of the time. There are many websites online that will give you some great ideas and options with dollhouse wallpaper. Because you are looking to cover a relatively small area, you should look at getting 1 or 2 square feet at a time. You can also print off your own wallpaper. Simply open a word document and create a pattern that will look great for your dollhouse and presto, homemade wallpaper Scrap booker's will have all the necessary materials for you as well, so if you know anyone or if you are a scrap booker yourself look at your collection of paper and I am sure that something will work. So go ahead, create unique, personalized wallpaper that matches your design, furniture, and dollhouse kit

Planning and Preparation with your Miniatures

Plan your dollhouse design, and expect to follow that plan. A plan will help you avoid pitfalls like spending too much or buying the wrong items. With miniature design a plan of action will consist of a floor plan and budget. A floor plan is a drawing, picture, or print of a dollhouse room that you would like to coordinate. In order to help you look for some room examples to start on the internet and in local stores. Make sure that you are taking notes of great rooms that you see. If you see something in your notes worthy of changing your plan, then go ahead and do it. Now budget those items that you are interested in and try hard not to go over it. Remember, this is a hobby and constraining yourself to a budget allows control and happiness over your financial situation. If you find a piece of furniture that is over your budget apply your patience and save until you can purchase it.
