Reviews

This sequel to Nikolls's earlier book, Making Dolls' Houses in 1/12 Scale (David & Charles, 1991), has measured drawings for five miniature buildings from the British countryside, including a cider barn with a real thatched roof and a stately Geogian house. All have one open side, in doll house fashion. The buildings are meticulously detailed and are pictured with period furnishings and dolls, for which no plans are included. Instructions for the houses include materials required, step-by-step construction, and close-up photographs of individual rooms. Each building is wired for electricity.
