Using an Artists Color Wheel for your Benefit
Color will be the over ruling design medium for your dollhouse furniture and design choices. Everyone that has gone to high school art or taken any basic art school knows a little bit about the color wheel. The basis of the wheel is that some colors are similar to one another, and others have contrast. Opposite colors on the wheel are those with absolute contrast and stability. This by no means is a full explanation of the science of color, but a mere push to get you thinking in the right direction for your dollhouse coordination.
Accessories: The Little Touches
The real fun with a kit or hobby of this sort is reveling in the small details. Accessories are the china in the kitchen, portraits for the walls, and the books in the bookcase. Adding these into your kit will spruce it up, add a fun touch, and cause visitors to sit and stare. Also, accessories add that lived in touch. So express yourself and personality in the type of china, miniature animals, portraits and more
The secret touch of a great Dollhouse: Lights
Lighting and dollhouses is a little like magic at Christmas time, it adds a tremendous awe factor, but you have to be at the right point to get started. This is the point when you have moved from setting up a miniature house for your kids to expanding this hobby into something more. It is really a lot of fun to light your dollhouse and at the same time a challenge to learn new things. And why shouldn't that challenge encourage us to try? First of all the basics are simply hooking up lighting from a plug to a light. In fact with the instructions at hand you will be surprised at how easy it is. Don't expect to do it perfect the first time, try it out, make a mistake and learn from it. We recommend getting a small electrical kit to start, they are simple to set up and get started with. Remember it is only hard or challenging if you make it out to be.
Designing with Linens
Dollhouses contain an enormous potential for miniaturists and hobbyists alike. For instance the amount of detail that is available to you is mesmerizing. One example is fabrics within a dollhouse. If you are looking for an example, or maybe a good starting point then I would recommend the bedroom. You can coordinate the sheets, mattresses, curtains, pillows, and even a throw blanket. In addition to the bedroom just think of the dinning room rug, curtains, and even napkins From there we move to the bathroom where you can create your own shower curtains, toilet seat covers, and more. As I stated before, it is endless, so enjoy the possibilities
