Most Helpful Customer Reviews 32 of 33 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars Making and Customizing Doll House Fittings, October 17, 2000 By  Arlene Brady (Phoenix, AZ United States) - See all my reviews The directions given in this book for making and customizing the various items displayed in the book are very clear. The materials list is handy and complete. A wide range of items is included, from tiling floors to plastic casting for ceiling decoration, with furniture and accessories to fill the rooms in between those customized floors and ceilings. Using this book, you can make the basic furniture, or customize ready-made pieces with gilt, paint, or upholstery. There are also directions for creating and re-creating accessories, such as lamps, mirrors, picture frames, etc. Or you can create smaller accessories, such as pots, bowls, or fruit. If you like (or can do) needlework, draperies, rugs, cushions, and upholstery are possible. Overall, the book provides a very good 'how-to' for various aspects of finishing and furnishing a dollhouse. With a little imagination, many of the ideas in this book can be adapted to your style of decor. 10 of 11 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Customizing/Making Mini Accessories, February 16, 2002 By  "san12" (NY USA) - See all my reviews I enjoy this book because it has very easy to follow instructions.
