"Take a tour through the miniature Victorian house - from the hustle and bustle of the basement kitchen, the impressive hallway, to the grand dining room and comfortable parlor - and make projects for every room. Using basic tools and materials, beginners will enjoy crafting the waxed sugar dome and dressing table set, while for the more experienced miniaturist there is the challenge of a traveling trunk or four-poster bed. Each project is accompanied by historical information, providing a real insight into the lives of the Victorians to help bring your dolls' house to life." -- Publisher.
