Doll House Miniatures

Reviews

This is not only adorable it is quality. I am a true cluts! I dropped this on my kitch floor and thought it would shatter due to the texture of the glass, but it didn't even chip. The tea pot, the teapot lid, the tea tray and the kettle it self were all unharmed and not even a chip! Quality! I love it.

Absolutely love this!! I have had MANY!! Perfect for kitchen counter top. My only wish is that it become available in many different colors.

I have this oil warmer, but have actually used it as a wax melter with good results as I don't own/buy scented oil. I have always loved miniature items since I was a kid and this set is no exception. You will have to be able to break up your wax melts in order to fit them in the small hole on top of the teapot. You can either break them up by hand or put them in a ziploc baggie and crush. The tealight burns pretty hot so the scent comes off really strong and there is even a little "steam" which looks so authentic! Because of the high temperature emitting the strong scent your wax melt will not give off scent as long as in an electric burner which uses a lower temperature. Still this works great for a strong scent and a charming knick knack in the kitchen.

This warmer was a welcome addition to my home. I liked the way it looked and the attention to detail - even down to the removable lid on the teapot! It's a great piece that I will have for a long time to come.

This item was exactly what I expected it to be and more. So adorable and so unique !! Thanks !!

Sophie spent the whole evening playing with the baby and the furniture. It went well with her new doll house. Love that the furniture is wooden and not plastic

My two and a half year old grandchild loves this doll house nursery. We refurbished a doll house made for my daughter by her grandfather. The original furniture was too delicate for a 2 1/2 year old. She loves to play family and the Plan Toy Doll House Nursery features sturdy age-appropriate furniture. She is fascinated with the mobile over the crib. I was concerned that it would be too delicate, but has proven to be able to withstand being pulled out and replaced many times. Her baby gets changed on the dresser's changing table and goes for walks in the stroller. The high chair is a great addition, although it has been moved to the kitchen.

Our 2 year old loves this nursery set! It is her favorite part of her dollhouse. She loves to put the baby in each of these pieces.

I've decided I like Plan products better than any other for my granddaughter's dollhouse. They are clearly made for sweetness and appeal to the younger child. She adored the changing table, the little stroller and especially, the crib mobile that looked like hers. And the high chair is a big hit. Out of all that's available out there, this is the most precious. Plan really knows what they're doing. And the tiny baby is too cute.

*UPDATE 3/23/09* - High chair fell apart and had to clamp and glue it together. This piece wasn't subjected to that much trauma. If I could I would deduct (1) star from the overall rating and (2) stars for durability. Most folks buy products made by Plan Toys because they are 1) environmentally friendly (replenishable wood and vegetable dye paint) and 2) well crafted and durable. This nursery set meets all expectations and is a nice addition to the doll house (we have the Plan Toys Victorian). Yes there are sets out there with exquisite detailing but I like it clean and simple. This set is cute and one of our daughter's favorites. The crib has a small, detachable mobile and the changing table mimics reality. I was not too surprised to see this very nursery set (as well as other Plan Toys rooms) at the Brooklyn Children's Museum in an architectural play area suffering constant abuse by a never-ending queue of hyper kids. All the pieces were intact save the mobile.

I purchased this motorcycle for my 2 year old nephew because it was gentler on the wallet than some others. As soon as he opened it he wanted it put together! It was simple to assemble it: I believe a screwdriver was needed to tighten on the wheels and the stickers were easy to stick on. It's the perfect size for him and it stood up nicely. I only wish that a little helmet came with it to practice good safety.

My son is very tall for his age, 35" at 18 months, but his feet still don't touch the ground on both sides at the same time. He loves it, don't get me wrong, and he loves to make the vroom vroom noise just like his Dad's motorcycle, but after he gets off of it he rides his Honda 4 wheeler replica

I bought this motorcycle for my nephew for his 3rd birthday. He LOVES it! He's going to be turning 5 soon and he still loves to play with it. The only thing I wish they did differently was make it so you could actually turn the handle bars and steer it right and left. He didn't mind though- its so light that he just lifts it a bit to go in the direction he wants. I have the cutest picture of him giving his big brother a "ride" on it around the house.

Our 2 year old grandson loves his cycle. (Although his 5 year old sister tries to ride it also.) It's great for him because he has not quite mastered the pedals on his regular tricycle yet. I recommend this cycle for all 2 year olds, especially good for exercising their legs.

My two year old son got this for a birthday present. He has really enjoyed it so far but he loses interest in it after 10 min. of riding. I wish it made some kind of motorcycle sound. I think that he would enjoy it alot more if it did! My five year son loves to try to ride it but it is simply to small.

The accessories in the book were very nice - but the instructions are mostly word based and the pictures are not step by step. The "house" portion of the book is lacking - sure it gives some good information on houses, but leaves you to design it yourself. The only thing in the book on "dollhouses" is the small one room one story house that you see on the cover. I will get some good use from this book, and I might even be able to sell some of the items online after making them, but overall I was disappointed with this book. --TODDL

the book has lots o f nice plans, most have patterns that are to scale, a couple of the bigger patterns have to be enlarged which cannot be easily done at home i took it to staples and it cost me about $8.00,it would br nice if for these plans it had a fold out full size pattern for these pieces. I also found out tha Lowes caries a lot of the smaller size boards in several species which saves a lot of time cutting 3/4" boards down. All and all this book is well worth the money,I am in the process of building my daughter the bunk bed for her dolls for Christmas.

Haven't built anything yet but the book looks very good. I like the drawings. I am barely a novice...I bought Woodworking for Dummies also.

My husband and I can't wait to start building furniture for the 18" dolls. He really enjoyes working with wood.

This book had several good furniture designs for beds, chests, bookcases, etc. However the assembly instructions were very hard to follow. It could really use an assembly drawing to illustrate how each piece of furniture goes together. You should also be aware that you will need a pretty good assortment of tools to cut and assemble the parts. It would be nice if there were a list of recommended tools. This was not a problem for me, but it could be if you are not a woodworker. Also, check the measurements as I found several incorrect measurements in the book.
