- The
Decorated Doll House : How to Design and Create Miniature Interiors
This is my all-time favorite miniatures book. Large, color photos of finished
projects, and the most detailed instructions (with how-to pictures, even!) on the
following projects: a Yellow Drawing Room, a Scottish Baronial Hall, a Print Room, a
Chinese Room, an Edwardian Town House, a Country Kitchen, a Modern Kitchen, a Colonial
Dining Room, a Rustic Breakfast Room. an Italian Villa facade, an English Country Bedroom,
a Victorian Shop Front, an Edwardian hat Shop, and a Flower Shop!!! All the
techniques taught are applicable to a variety of projects. The quality of these
projects will satisfy an advanced miniaturist, and the how-to details make the techniques
accessible to the beginner as well!! Highly recommended.
