This Art Deco lounge chair would be as at home in your luxury dollhouse as it would on your shelf next to "The Great Gatsby." Based on a real chair from the 1930s, it features boldly shaped wooden arms and cotton upholstery. Just like the real one!

If you're new to miniature making, this kit will teach you basic furniture construction techniques and one of the popular methods of doing tiny upholstery. There is no sewing involved!

It is rated intermediate and would be enjoyable for miniature enthusiasts as well as people new to making miniatures who have a background in doing other crafts. It is made of all-natural materials (wood, chipboard, and cotton). 

To finish the kit, you will need glue, scissors, and an iron. You can also use paint, stain, and an emery board or sandpaper to make it even more realistic.

Finished dimensions: 2-3/8" H x 2" W x 2-3/4" D (6cm H x 5cm W x 6cm D)

FAQ

What tools do I need to finish the kits?

All of the kits need glue to complete--any kind that adheres to wood will work. (I use Aleene's Tacky Glue.) You may also need a craft knife, sandpaper or an emery board, and clamps or clips.

Is paint provided to make the kit look like the sample?

No, the kits do not include paint or stain. Any type of paint, stain, or marker that adheres to wood will work. For the samples, I used craft acrylic paints, artist acrylic paints, water-based washes, oil-based wood stain, and micron markers.

Will I be able to customize this?

Yes! All of the kits and components are made of basswood ply (except the boot tray, which is chipboard). While it requires some elbow grease, the wood can be be cut with multiple passes of a craft knife.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you're not sure about the ease or possibility of a customization you're considering, and I can work through it with you or potentially do a custom order.
