DOLLHOUSES & MINIATURES

In the construction and use of dollshouses, 1:144 scale represents the scale that a 1:12 dollshouse would have in a 1:12 dollshouse. This is often called Dolls' dollhouse or Dollshouse's dollshouse.

At this scale, a typical house is about 5cm across, and making internal parts for such a house is a difficult task for the home hobbyist. Commercial manufacturers often use laser cutting technology to ensure clean lines.

It will take time to assemble your dollhouse. Set up a work area where you can keep all your supplies and tools handy and ready to go.
