Until I ran across two delightful blogs called
Mid Mod Mini and
My Mini Mod Pod, I had no idea there was so much miniature mid-century furniture on the market. Naturally, I had seen the
Vitra miniature chairs, which sell for hundreds of dollars, but that was the extent of my knowledge of tiny furniture.
I encourage you to take a look at these sites, because what you see there will amaze you. The scenes these hobbyists create are so detailed you'll think you're looking at a real house.

Take a look at some of the dollhouses and furnishings on the market now. I'm blown away by the beauty and accuracy...and by how much cheaper they are than the Vitra pieces.

The detail is just astonishing! I could almost sit on those chairs.
ReplyDeleteThey look amazingly real, don't they? I can hardly believe they're miniatures.
DeleteIntriguing hobbie, I could handle a few small treats myself, great post!
ReplyDeleteI really wouldn't mind having a small collection of some of the chairs on a shelf by themselves.
DeleteAgree! That would be great in those white square storage shelves!
DeleteYou know my thoughts on a great dolls' house! Long live girldom!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful houses and furniture. Thank you Dana, gorgeous! The brincadadas a smashing!
I wasn't a real girlie girl, but I always had a fascination for dollhouses. These are just too fabulous!
