Sam McKechnie's new craft book invites readers to lose themselves in the incredible world of Miss Violet.

Whether they have a doll's house, some shelf space or an unwanted shoebox, Sam has created 25 makes that are perfect for any miniature residence. In addition to the makes there will be a pop-out paper Miss Violet doll (and outfits to dress her in) at the back of the book.

Readers will also find a shoebox house project and a chapter of scraps (to photocopy or download) so that every room in their house can be embellished with fabulous paper furnishings – from cooking pots and carriage clocks to picture frames and paper pansies.

Chapters include:

Introducing Miss Violet – Meet the star of the show. Includes a wealth of ideas for clothing and accessories for readers to make themselves. Moving in – learn how to select a home (traditional doll’s house, shoebox, cupboard or shelf), make a shoebox house, and create a name plaque. Kitchen – makes include clay food, embroidered tablecloth and bobbin table and stools.. Parlour – makes include a chandelier, fireplace and Christmas tree.

Bedroom and bath – makes include pressed flower wallpaper, playing card bath mat and a fairytale mattress. Garden – makes include a pond, instant flower garden and clothes line.

Miss Violet’s Doll's House includes everything needed to imagine and create a miniature world.
