Hi guys! I recently bought a new couch and loved it so much I had to create a miniature 1/12 scale version. I hope you enjoy this tutorial! To those who are super perceptive, the fabric is the same as the one I used to reupholster the life sized wingback chair 😉

    I love how professional-looking your miniatures are. It's like something you can buy off Ikea if they had a miniature section.
  • @Pepsi_Please
    Omgosh I'm having a flash back. When I was a kid I made upholstered furniture for my Barbies. Then for girls I babysat, then for my daughter. I REALLY enjoyed this video. Thank you so much for sharing 😊
  • @sharonmilesharkins7175
    Stunning! I'm in awe of your work. Your quality is better than most regular size furniture. 😊
  • @artbarnstudiocreston1916

  • @AngelOfTheLord67
    I am in awe. It is almost upsetting to me how incredibly thorough your work is. Like cute aggression, where something is so cute you want to squeeze it to death? Except this work is so detailed I want to scream. You WOOD STAINED the TINY LEGS???? INCREDIBLE. I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS.

    This is such an amazing sectional couch. My Dollhouse is Mid-century and this will add just the right touch. Thank you for this! ❤
