Books
Dolls' houses are usually period houses. However, in this amazing compendium of miniature buildings, author Sarah Walkley looks at the many other styles of construction that are increasingly being created by miniatures enthusiasts including cosy cottages, modern loft apartments, churches, garden sheds, lighthouses and windmills. It even delves into the fantasy world of witches' lairs, haunted houses and burrows for mice and bears. Drawn from the wealth of interesting and unusual models that have been featured in Dolls' House Magazine over more than five years, it showcases the best examples of the dolls' house hobby to demonstrate what can be achieved when working in miniature. It aims to provide inspiration to those that are new to the hobby, or want to take their model making a stage further, as well as being a delightful read for those who are simply fascinated by all things miniature.
