Hello Everyone,
It’s been a wonderful week, and I’m so pleased to share this easy, cute tutorial just before the weekend!
As part of my ongoing project The Miniature Victorian Parlour, I’ve been working with various small scales such as 1:144 and 1:48. While the micro scales are perfect for tiny dollhouses, I find that for small displays, the 1:48 scale (also known as quarter scale) is just ideal. It works beautifully with 1:12 scale dolls and adds such charm to miniature scenes.
This week, I completed my very first quarter scale display for the shop — and I have to say, I’m thrilled with how it turned out!
🛠️ What You’ll Need:
-
Thin plywood (for base and back wall)
-
Stanley knife
-
Acrylic paints (white and gold)
-
Mini wallpaper and flooring printouts
-
Wood glue
-
Miniature cabinet kit (from Melissa’s Miniworld)
-
3D printed busts, frames, and pedestals
-
Patience and a steady hand!
🎨 Step-by-Step Tutorial:
The busts looked adorable, and although placing such small items can be fiddly, it was absolutely worth it.
That’s all for today! I hope this inspires you to try a quarter scale scene of your own. Stay tuned for more updates and tiny adventures in my miniature world.
Take care and see you soon.
Hugs,
Rebecca xxx
