The only reason I didn't give this one five stars is because of there aren't too many projects provided which are very simple to make. It is not that they are difficult, but rather, very time consuming for each one. I thought some toys/games that are very quick and easy for the mini crafter to make should have been included. I also was hoping for some more dolls' dolls projects, but there was only one project and I thought some Victorian dolls' dolls would have been nice. This book is great for someone looking for cute toys to make for the dollhouse. Also, the author provides lots of historical accuracy in terms of when such toys were popular. This was great information to include as most dollhouse miniature crafters want to create accessories for their dollhouse which are appropriate for the period/style of their miniature home.

I love this book. I am not really into dollhouses but I bought it for ideas and to see how these things are made. The items look very fidly to make but I expect all things for miniatures are.
The only problem I have is that I live in Australia and I don't have a clue where to get some of the wood and a few other things from as the suppliers are English or American. You get use to this.
As soon as I figure out where to get these things from I will have a go at making a few things.
