Decorate your dolls' house in exactly the style you want - without spending a fortune.

Learn how to create or customise fixtures, furnishings and accessories, using paint effects, plasterwork, papier-mache, plastics and soft soldering - to name but a few of the materials and techniques that are included.

With the help of this book, you can achieve in miniature just about anything that you can imagine, combining the pleasure of collecting with the satisfaction of exercising your own creativity. Transform inexpensive furniture, or make accessories and furnishings from scratch. If you want Victorian floor tiles or a rococo mirror frame, you can have them.

Thirty-eight essential projects show how the techniques can be applied, to give your dolls' house a unique and professional look.

Plaster casting: ceiling rose
Splatter painting: fire surround
Trompe l'oil: quilted screen
Soft soldering: brass plant stand
Routing: Georgian four-poster bed
Patination: Victorian jardiniere
Crackle glaze: distressed linen cupboard
Polymer clay: marble chess table

Weaving: rag rug
