Good book
Good diagrams on how to make the furniture, but to make the furniture is quite fiddly and would not be ideal for children who are on the young side

Twelfth Scale modern miniatures
This has a strong modern slant, and some of the makes are more complex than others. A number of good ideas to try out though. I will be using some of these with my dollshouse club.

Modern Take On A Traditional Craft
"50 Makes for Modern Miniatures" by Chelsea Anderson is an inspiring guide for anyone interested in crafting contemporary miniature furniture for a DIY dollhouse. The book features a wide range of projects that combine sleek design with practicality, making it accessible for both beginners and seasoned crafters. Anderson's instructions are clear and straightforward, with handy hints and tips, allowing readers to easily follow along without feeling overwhelmed by complex techniques.I found that the standout aspect is the simple yet effective use of everyday materials, such as cardboard, wood scraps, and fabric remnants. The projects demonstrate how to transform these basic supplies into stylish, modern pieces that elevate any dollhouse interior. With helpful tips on customization and finishing, this book empowers readers to create unique miniatures that reflect their personal style while keeping the process enjoyable and stress-free. I was able to create a quick and easy table lamp for my dollhouse in quick time.

Ideenreich
Die Idee ein Puppenhaus mit selbstgebauten Möbeln nach Art von IKEA einzurichten find ich witzig. Mal was für die jüngere Generation von Bewohnern. Ich habe allerdings kein IKEA- Puppenhaus, sondern bin gerade dabei mir ein älteres Modell zu bauen. Ein Punktabzug gibt es für die "Schnittmuster" am Ende des Buches, bei denen man erstmal ausrechnen muß wieviel Holz man insgesamt benötigt. Als Übersicht bei dem jeweiligen Modell wäre eine Gesamtmenge schön gewesen. Zumindest was Leisten und Dübel angeht. Ansonsten ein gutes Buch mit schönen moderneren Ideen.
