If you’re passionate about miniatures and dollhouse furniture, today I’ll guide you through making a miniature wooden chair in 1:12 scale. This tiny piece will add a realistic and elegant touch to any dollhouse.

The first step is cutting the pieces. I used a jeweler’s saw, which was extremely helpful in shaping the fine curves of the chair. It’s the perfect tool for achieving precise cuts when working with small dimensions. For the material, I chose cedar wood because of its smooth texture and beautiful natural grain.

Don’t forget the importance of sanding. Carefully sanding each piece ensures a smooth surface and a professional finish once assembled. After assembling the chair, I like to apply linseed oil, which brings out the natural beauty of the wood, gives it a gentle shine, and protects the surface.

To make things even easier, I prepared a step-by-step video tutorial that shows the entire process, from cutting to finishing. You can follow along visually to get the best results.
