5.0 out of 5 stars Make beautiful dollhouse furniture with this book, January 10, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mott Miniature Furniture Workshop Manual (Paperback)

This book contains detailed scale patterns for dozens of 1:12 scale miniature furnishings and toys. Many are scaled replicas of antique furnishings which once stood in the Mott Family home. Others are designs for miniatures seen in their world famous Mott's Miniature Musuem in California.

In the front of the book is a handy guide which reviews hobby tools, woods and glues to use with miniature furniture projects. There is also a beginners section which covers some of the basic miniature wood carving techniques before you get into the projects. Advanced miniaturists can bypass this section.

In the back of the book are 6 pages of full color lithographs which are applied to some of the projects. The original artwork for this colorwork was hand drawn and hand colored by Barbara Mott.

This 1995 release is the second revised edition of the original book first released in 1978.
