Book Description
A charming English style--and attitude--infuses this book on furnishing
dollhouses. A Dorset-based father-and-daughter team selects eight rooms
and decorates them according to eight different design periods, from a
medieval scullery to a very modern (and pricey) kitchen. It may take a
bit of interpretation to decipher their instructions for the projects
because of the often very British language. Nonetheless, their methods
for, say, painting a country pine dresser or building an Edwardian
chiffonier are both novel and fairly easy to accomplish. Directions,
though explicit, are not in the usual how-to format; the list of
necessary materials is omitted and instructions are not illustrated in
the step-by-step process seemingly necessary for this craft. Barbara Jacobs
