Town Square Miniatures Poster Bed

Decorating the dollhouse bedroom is often the “icing on the cake” for many dollhouse hobbyists. There’s so much to consider in a typical bedroom, and coming up with all of the right miniature accessories for the bedroom in your dollhouse can be both fun and challenging.

As you begin to consider what may work with your project, don’t forget to think about several factors. The period that you plan to model is important. While a modern home has running water and plumbing, a Victorian home may not have.

Scale must also be considered. Much of what we offer is in 1:12 or 1:24 scale, and that’s the scale many hobbyists work with, but it must remain consistent throughout your home. While most dollhouse bedrooms end up looking quite different, more often than not, they include most of these top five items depending on the time period you’re emulating.

1. Dollhouse Bedding Set: Even those working with some of the earlier historical periods must have a bedding set to match. After all, everyone needs a bed and the right linens to top it off. For years, most bedrooms included a quilt on top of the bed, and many of those are available as well. Most of today’s bedding sets include accent pillows and dust ruffles, so if you’re modeling a modern home, adding accessories like these to your dollhouse bedroom is an absolute must.

2. Dollhouse Jewelry Chest: The lady of the house often has a number of jewelry items she must store somewhere, and a miniature jewelry box or chest is an excellent addition to any bedroom atmosphere. While there are a number of different choices as you choose the right dollhouse jewelry box, you’ll likely want one with a number of features. Opening doors, pull out drawers, and even hinged lids are all commonly available, and they can help to add a level of realism to the bedroom.

3. Dollhouse Clothing: Every dollhouse bedroom must include garments, and your dollhouse, no matter what period you’re working with, is little different. Fortunately, there are lots of options here as well. From miniature bathrobes, shirts and dresses to other accessories like hats, shoes, purses, and even belts, you’re certain to find options that will work out with your dollhouse. As you begin to add clothing items, though, you’ll want to consider dollhouse clothing hangers to help round out the package. You may even want to add an armoire or wardrobe to hang all of those clothes.

4. Dollhouse Lamps: While this addition depends a bit on the period of history you’re working with, even those modeling history before electricity will want to add kerosene lamps or gas lamps to help give an air of authenticity to the project. If you’re moving forward with something more modern, consider a working miniature lamp or even a lighted ceiling fan to help bring brilliance to your dollhouse.

5. Miniature Picture Frame: Sure, they may seem a bit mundane, but you see them throughout real homes, so why should your dollhouse be any different? As with almost all dollhouse miniatures, there’s much to choose from here as well. Whether you want your dollhouse to display fine art or family photos, you should be able to find the pictures and the frames you need.
