wenlaine Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Hi Glen, what I do is take any piece of furniture in real life (ie. bed) and divide the measurements by 12. You then get your 1/12 measurement for the dollhouse item. Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nameless1 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 And if you don't want to base everything on your own furniture, choose a furniture store that sells online, like IKEA to get measurements of models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wenlaine Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Also Glen, keep in mind we are dealing in inches and not the metric system. Being in Canada, I have to keep reminding myself of that fact. Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wenlaine Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Glen, I came upon this page and I wondered if it might be of any help. http://miniatures.about.com/od/scaleconver...onmeas.htm?nl=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glen Posted August 7, 2005 Author Share Posted August 7, 2005 Thanks, I actually did a search for real furniture and found a site with just the kind of gear I want to make and it has all the HWL dimensions with each piece so I get ideas and sizes in one hit.
