[.ca] Miniature Worlds in 1/12th Scale (ISBN 0715312170)

Miniature Worlds in 1/12 scale:
I have made doll houses and miniature furniture and have used unusal things to create the furniture and furnishings. I borrowed this book from the library and couldn't put it down. Couldn't wait to get started and wasn't happy about having to return it to the library. I found so many inexpensive easy ways to create so many things to add to the doll houses. I couldn't wait until Mother's Day to get it as a gift. Went right to Amazon.com to get it NOW. Didn't even want to search in the stores. Thank you Amazon.com for having this available!

Miniature Worlds Delivers In A Big Way!:
Susan & Martin Penny have written a fun book that is chuck full of projects for do-it-yourselfers. They show how to create miniature items from inexpensive materials (craft sticks, aida cloth, beads, pins, paper, clay, etc.), and/or things you might normally throw away (bottle caps, coffee stirrers, aluminum foil pie plates, etc). There is a wide range of projects, including a tea room inside an old teapot, a ladies hat & accessories store inside a hatbox, a whimsical fairy dwelling (made with twigs, dried cones, and other interesting things you may find in your backyard or the woods). There is also a wizard's room depicting an open book, which serves as the walls of the castle where the wizard lives. This is a book that will pay for itself in no time at all with the money you save by making your own accessories. It's a must for the DIY-er and I highly recommend it!
