COMMON DOLLHOUSE SCALES

Play Scale ratio 1 : 6

Play Scale is used for Barbie and other approx. 12" adult figures such as vintage GI Joes. It is the correct scale for 8" dolls that represent children. It's also your best choice for 15" and bigger dolls. "Play Scale" is the most common term for this scale, although it's also very commonly known as "1 : 6" and 2 Inch.

1 Inch Scale ratio 1 : 12

Called "1 Inch" because 1 scale inch = 1 full sized foot, this scale is the most common scale used in dollhouses. This is probably a good size for craft projects like rubber stamping and tag art although you may prefer the larger size of the PlayScale section.

1/2" Scale ratio 1/2 : 12 or 1 : 24

Called "1/2 Inch" because 1/2 scale inches = 1 full sized foot, this scale is also commonly used in smaller dollhouses. This is also the correct scale for the larger Department 56 Snow Village.

1/4" Scale ratio 1/4 : 12 or 1 : 48

Called "1/4 Inch" because 1/4 scale inches = 1 full sized foot, this scale is also commonly used in dollhouses and is called "O" Scale for model trains.

LIGHTING YOUR DOLLHOUSE

You can estimate the number of lights needed in your dollhouse. Use at least three lights for each room. Then add another 5 or 6 lights for novelty lights such as Christmas trees or fireplaces. Choose a transformer that will support more than the estimated power. This will allow for unplanned lights that may be added later. In estimating the total count the number of bulbs, not fixtures, in each room. Fluorette bulbs should be counted as 3 bulbs and spotlights as 3 bulbs.

Use only a 12-volt transformer that has been specifically designed for a dollhouse. A dollhouse transformer is designed to plug directly into a 120-volt household wall socket. And has a 6 foot to 8 foot lead which extends to the dollhouse. A starter kit which will wire a 6 room house is $49.96 and a larger kit which will wire a 10-12 room house is 59.96.

Dresser boxes can be used for small lamps. They use 2 batteries and will accommodate three lamps. The small dresser boxes are 2 1/8high and 2 3/8wide. They cost 2.78. The larger box is 2 9/16high and 3 3/16wide. They cost 10.29.
