Miss Violet's doll's house - Sam McKechnie

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.
