They say that honesty is the best policy so I will be honest !
At a local car boot sale there was a pile of the Dolls House and Miniatures Magazines,all marked at 10p each !
Dolls houses fascinate me so I handed over my sweaty pound coin and bagged the lot.

The magazine is a very well known monthly publication that focuses on shows,books,craftsmen and the individual collector.
The magazine includes projects either in 1:12 or 1:24 scale,among the projects there will be dolls clothes to make,furniture ,knitting or fine embroidery projects.
All the projects come with detailed instruction and high quality photographs of the finished article.
The magazine also states clearly where all the materials needed for any project can be obtained.
Much of the miniature work requires specialist materials to achieve the desired look.

A lot of attention is paid to the Edwardian and Victorian Dolls houses and you will see pictures of some of the Worlds finest miniature collections.
If the season brings a celebration then the magazine offers projects in keeping.

There are many shops that supply kits and these are regularly reviewed.
Many suppliers of Dolls Houses and miniatures advertise in the magazine.
Some of the intricate miniature work is so specialised it can command high prices.

The magazine runs readers competitions and offers.

Dolls House and miniature Scene is £3.75
There is a subscription available 12 issues for £37.50

Summary: An excellent magazine for the miniaturist and Dolls House enthusiast
