One of the most enjoyable parts of having a dollhouse is furnishing it with miniature dollhouse furniture, and at this time of year, it becomes even more interesting when you add Christmas miniatures to your dollhouse.

The problem lies in finding Christmas miniatures for your new dollhouse. This type of furniture is not so easy to find, because it is specialized. Much of the miniature dollhouse furniture you buy anyway is custom made, but when it comes to Christmas dollhouse furniture, well its even a little more specialized.

Lucky for you - that you are looking for Christmas miniature furniture at the right time of year. There are many miniature dollhouse stores both online and off that will put out this seasonal furniture now, and you can choose from different options.

Why buy Christmas Miniature Dollhouse Furniture?

Finding the right miniature dollhouse furniture can be challenging, but that is what really makes it fun. You can start your search online, visit specialty shops, Christmas specialty shops, and dollhouse museums.

Another great way to find that perfect Christmas miniature dollhouse furniture is to make your own Christmas furniture. You can find premade dollhouse furniture kits, or you can make your dollhouse from your own drawing plans.

Kits have become remarkably varied in recent years. Now you can even get them with different finishes. You can find them for milled plywood, smooth plywood, or milled MDF. What you choose depends on the look you want for the dollhouse furniture.

If making your own Christmas decorations and Christmas accessories for your dollhouse, you can buy ready made furniture at any arts and crafts store.

Can someone help me with a craft idea?

I DO NOT WANT ANY WEBSITES! I am making modle rooms (Not houses) to keep me occupied. I need to know of any in-expensive stores that sell miniature furniture near Asheville, North Carolina. I don't want them to be painted (White is O.K.), and the beds can't have like little comforters and stuff. I will make those myself. I just need names of stores (NOT ON-LINE) that sell plain mini furniture. I'm checking Michael's Craft Store today. Thanks for all good answers.

What will be good to use for the room walls? Will cardboard look tacky? Is plywood to difficult? Keep in mind...I'm only 12!

For room walls I would suggest wallpaper, wrapping paper, scrapbooking paper or papers from books that cloth companies give out. As for the furniture itself...I'm pretty sure Michael's sells something like that; they also have wood shapes that you can paint - it might come in handy. You can also check out Ragshop, or any other craft store, and maybe Amazing Savings or second-hand shops, garage sales, etc.

Here's a great link to a dollhouse that I made with my older sister a few years ago. It's adorable and while I'm not sure it's what you want you may get some ideas from it:

Good luck, I think it's great that you're doing this!
