[@ssoozee]

I’ve always been fascinated by miniature furniture since I was a young girl, and I never tire of watching you make your beautiful creations. I love it so much. In fact, I think I just decided to permanently devote time to do so. I cannot deny myself any longer! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful designs. You’re wonderful. 💖

[@1234circle]

OMG you make it look soooo easy that I have made a piano and looked just like yours....:) Can't wait to make this, the turn table and more. Love your videos also because you get right to the point and not alot of talking about everything out side of the project, thank you.

[@BeckyWilson123]

I would have loved having KZbin tutorials like this when I was a kid, I used to make all my Barbie Doll house furniture..and yup, t was pretty wonky looking. Guess I must have figured out what I was doing because I decorate homes professionally now and often create decor furniture when I can't find what I'm looking for in stores. lol. Still, it would have been fun...nice video, thanks!

This was so amazing and it was easy and it looks REALLY good

[@mdwms6152]

Nice tutorial! You inspired me to try it. I made mine 9" long to seat 3 fashion dolls. Materials needed: xacto knife or other sharp blade -1/4" thick foam core board, 15" x 20" (a pretty standard size) -thin cotton or polyester batting -fabric glue (personally, I like Beacon fabric glue; Walmart) -some kind of lightweight fabric in a color you like - I found a nice piece at the second hand store; I'd suggest getting at least 1/4 yd (I make mistakes...) -wood stain - optional 1. seat base - cut 2 pcs: 6 1/4" x 2 1/2" rectangle out of foam core board; glue together 2. back - cut another 2 pcs, 6 1/4" x 2 1/4" and glue together 3. arms - cut 4 pcs 2" x 3" (you could cut a long 3" wide pc, then cut four 2" pcs from that) - glue 2 together to make one arm 4. Seat cushions - cut another 4 pcs, 2 1/4" x 2 3/4"; glue 2 together to make one back cushion & the other 2 for the other cushion. (3:28:00) add a bit more batting to the front of each before upholstering for a poofier look. 5. Back cushions - 2 pcs: 1 1/2" x 2 3/4" Do NOT glue these together! (4:00:00 extra batting pc is 8" x 1") 6. 1/4" square dowel - cut 2 pcs to 7 1/4" long 7. 2 pcs of dowel cut two 2 1/2" long pcs 8. Legs - 4 pcs of dowel cut to 1" long 9. (4:40:00) assembling the wooden base and legs Hope this helps! If there are any errors, please let me know and I will edit.

[@emmadevreugd6407]

Making it now. I couldn't find any of the materials so I decided to change a few. Just a tip. Don't use plywood. It is a lot of extra work. Also, don't use bulky soft material, it gives the couch a puffy look, not what you're going for. If you're like me and do different measurements, try to keep this is mind when buying fabric.

[@lisagordon9756]

You are insanely gifted, and your voice soothing. I absolutely love all your work!

[@leslielegrand728]

Could you please put your measurements in the info box or on a list during the video, so I can pause and print. I love your projects and I have recreated some in 1:6 scale for play dolls. I really look forward to your videos.

[@crissygeorge6854]

Do you know the measurements you used to make it 1:6?

[@RusanovAlex]

Yes, I would also appriciate if you share 1/6 measurments!

I never thought about combining brown paint and water! That is genius!

[@heymudda1]

This looks easy enough for me to do and I've got all the materials. If I wanted to size this up to Barbie or American Girl size using your 1:12 scale measurements as my starting point, would I just double the measurements to get Barbie 1:6 scale? What about AG doll size which is 1:3 scale? Would I need to take your measurements and triple them? I truly hope I don't confuse anyone else reading your post. But I'm new at this and I want to get it right. Thanks in advance!

[@terrymartin6667]

Hi Mary, go to Small Stuff's Print Minis and they have a scale calculator. You put in the original size (the one given here) of the piece and then the scale (1:12 in this case) you want and it gives you the answer. www.printmini.com/whatscale.html. If the link doesn't work from youtube copy it and paste on your web browser and it'll work. I just tested the link and it worked.

Lovely clean work👍🏻A fun fact?? A long time ago, my mother told me that a good quality couch should always have centre legs for added support so it won’t ultimately sag. Obviously yours never will but maybe for added authenticity. 😉
