Doll House Miniatures
By Norman Burr
Whether you are building that doll house from scratch, from a kit, or
purchasing one that is all ready built your doll house won't be complete
until you have furnished it with a vast array of doll house miniatures.
Doll house miniatures aren't just the dolls and the furniture that is
placed in these little abodes but an entire ray of merchandise that can
make your dollhouse look like a real home.
Finishing off the Rooms
One category of dollhouse miniatures are those items that allow you to
finish off each room just like you would a real home. This category
includes: wall paper, borders, flooring, and even carpeting. There are
also miniature chandeliers to use for some of your lighting fixtures as
well.
Furniture
Dollhouse miniatures also includes the furniture that you place in each
room. There is appropriate furniture for every room of the house
including, living rooms, dining rooms, family rooms, library's, computer
rooms, bed rooms for both adults and children, and even patio or deck
furniture including BBQ grills.
Accessories
Miniature accessories include a wide range of different objects
including area rugs, lamps, pictures in frames, food, dishes, toys,
flowers, perfume bottles, wine bottles, dishes, tea pots, rolling pins,
pots and pans, microwaves, bedding including sheets, bedspreads, quilts
and even decorative pillows. and all the other odds and ends you will
find in real homes.
Other accessories designed for the adult collectors include such things
a liquor bottles, martinis in glasses, blenders, and other tiny items.
Think of the fun you could have building your own dollhouse and then
choosing the perfect miniatures to complete the inside, furnish and
decorate it. You can choose any style of home you would like from
Victorian, to country, to chic and modern. This could become a terrific
home project for the entire family and the finished product would be one
you could view with pride.
People who built doll houses and furnish them with dollhouse miniatures
for a hobby, spend hours and even days searching online for just the
right pieces to complete their decors. In some cases, part of the
enjoyment of this hobby is buying kits and finishing the many of the
miniatures oneself.
Price
Doll house miniatures run the gambit from fairly inexpensive items made
out of plastic and wood, and to items ranging $100.00 and more. There
are even shows for these miniatures and people travel far and wide to
the latest products to add to their doll house collectibles.
Getting Started
The best way to get started collecting doll house miniatures is to
either build or buy an unfurnished doll house, decide on the type of
décor you would like and then start shopping both at your local hobby
shop and online for the kind of miniatures you would like. Don't make
any hasty decisions though because you want to have the opportunity of
getting a good idea of all the different choices available to you.
