by E. V. Lucas (Author)
A delightful and practical guide to creating a charming doll's house using simple materials. This vintage volume offers step-by-step instructions for constructing an entire miniature world from paper and cardboard.
Recognising that traditional dolls' houses can be costly and difficult to obtain, in How To Build Your Own Doll's House, Lucas provides an accessible alternative that encourages imagination and careful handiwork. Beyond the house itself, the book includes detailed guidance on making indoor and outdoor furniture, figurines, utensils, clothing, and decorative details, allowing readers to furnish and populate their creation in full.
Contents include sections on fireplaces, chairs, tables, beds, wardrobes, dressing tables, wash-hand stands, bookshelves and books, sofas, towel-horses, clothes baskets, and more, as well as chapters devoted to the inhabitants of the house, dressing dolls, dolls' dinner parties, and dolls' flats. Clear explanations and charming touches make the book suitable both for children, with adult guidance, and for adults interested in traditional crafts and miniature making.
