Dollhouse Miniature Projects

DIY Tutorials for your own tiny porch or dolls house

Tiny projects are a lot of fun to make.  DIY your own little porch or kitchen to decorate in a country style.

I got a very outdated side table which came complete with a funky saloon style batwing door, and a few shelves.  I see it as a country style porch, with some rustic decor items - handmade out of found materials.

A simple wooden box would do the job too - like a weathered old crate. Or, make something out of weathered boards painted shabby white to give a real country look.

Bits of wire and cardboard, some scraps of styrofoam and a bit of acrylic craft paint, and there you have it.

You can make these projects out of whatever you would normally throw in the garbage (or the recycle box) and because they're miniature, they don't take much to make.

Lids of all kinds can be made into pots and pans, they don't need to be metal, you can paint almost anything with acrylic craft paints.

Tiny boxes of apples, harvested, and a firewood scuttle waiting to be taken indoors, a miniature corn broom, stool and many other things that would normally decorate a country porch - you'll find them here.

For outdoors of the tiny porch, you can make some steps down onto the ground, then use velvet fabric for grass, or even some fake moss. Think outside the box. If something is the wrong colour, paint it.

Keeping an open mind and seeing what you normally would trash to make them into miniature dollhouse furniture - that's the secret.

Tiny accessories like a miniature wreath brighten up the door and welcome the visitor in.
