Product Description

Product Description
From curtains, blinds and drapes, to pelmets, tiebacks and valances, everything you need to create inspirational window dressings for our dolls' house is included here. Over 25 step-by-step projects show how to make a variety of window treatments. Further variation ideas, illustrated in colour, allow you to adapt many of the project to suit your dolls' house. A section on the basic tools and equipment used offers practical guidance on choosing fabrics and miniature haberdashery such as silks, cords, fringes and trimmings. Essential techniques such as making a pattern, fabric pleating and making tassels and cords are included and guidance on installing your finished project is also covered. Easy-to-use templates are provided where necessary, and inspirational colour photographs show the finished curtains displayed in situ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Curtaining - the perfect finishing touch, 13 Aug 2006
Making dolls house curtains is notoriously difficult if you want them to look natural. This book shows how to create fantastic curtains in a variety of styles to suit many periods. It gives really clear and concise instructions for every aspect from the materials needed to making up the individual curtains. Each step is outlined clearly and is easy to follow, with good explainatory photographs. In the book there are pages of patterns that you can photocopy and use as templates making life even easier. Curtains available include roller blinds, simple hangings, swags and tails, cafe nets and a whole host more.

Following the instructions I have managed to completely curtain my house and make some curtains to sell - which they have done and my customers have been more than happy with them. I like this book so much I am currently in the process of purchasing the whole set of Dolls House Do It Yourself titles.

I thoroughly endorse the previous lady's comments. I agree about the usual curtains. I found this book instructive and easy to follow. You will find the results impressive and want to make more.
