Dust jacket notes: "Audrey Johnson is well known for her writings on the enchanted miniature world of dolls and their homes. In this, her fourth book, she turns to dolls' house furnishings, in which she includes wall-papers, curtains, carpets and the small articles of everyday life, as well as furniture. Her survey stretches from the seventeenth century to the present day. The author's approach is essentially practical. The first part of the book is devoted to the maintenance of houses, the second to the tools and materials required by the collector and the do-it-yourself enthusiast. The final part, beautifully illustrated, gives an extended description of furnishings, together with guidance on how they can be made. Throughout, she pays close attention to period, to ensuring that details are correct for their time. Indeed, one of book's attractions is that it provides a history in miniature of English domestic furnishings over the past 300 years. Furnishing Dolls' Houses will be indispensable both as a guide and as a source of new inspiration to all those who are interested in dolls and their affairs."
