- 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 😉
For all the supplies I used and my recommendations for basic tools to get you started building miniatures, visit www.amazon.com/shop/thesquare...

I love how professional-looking your miniatures are. It's like something you can buy off Ikea if they had a miniature section.
Why don’t they have a miniature collection? 🤔
From IKEA, not Off*
Stunning! I'm in awe of your work. Your quality is better than most regular size furniture.
😊

Agreed!
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 😊
Love this! Im an art teacher and currently doing a 'dollhouse' series with kids. I can't wait to show them this video! thank you!
FABRIC RECOMMENDATION * Fellow DIYers! I've made a lovely sofa to this video (thanks Cath!!) and would like to advise you against selecting thick fabrics for the upholstery. I chose the kind of fabric that sweatshirts and hoodies are made of (kinda like flock, woven on the outside, woolly on the inside) because the color was perfect. I ended up having edges that are too thick, and some parts around the armrests aren't ideal. Choose the kinds of fabrics that Cath used, ideally I think kitchen placemats will be great as they are thin and the edges don't fray. Best of luck with your creations!
Wonderful tip!! Thank you!
Does it have the same type of texture?
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.
That is just wonderful. You do such precise and lovely work!
An idea for a touch of realism and to cover up the bottoms of the finished couches, you can get the material that they place on the underside of both real couches and mattresses as well. It's the white gauze like material. It would help hide and corners under the couch once the legs are added.
Love your videos! I am recently new to the miniatures and dollhouse building and have been building on to my current dollhouse project. It's a lovely Victorian.
I subscribed to your channel and you are such an inspiration to me for making items myself. So far I've been purchasing items that are pre-made with some upgrades that I do myself.
It's so relaxing to do these. And I enjoy your wonderful tutorials so much. Thanks for sharing these.❤
