Have you seen these IKEA dollhouse furniture? They’re like the real thing!

An IKEAHackers reader, dteleki, recently discovered a wonderful YouTube vlogger, Cath of “The Square To Spare” and alerted us to her amazing work. Cath’s channel specializes in videos showing how to build dollhouse furniture and accessories. And of course, dolls need IKEA furniture in their homes too. Here are a few that caught our eye.

There are also other modernist-style items that are NOT based on IKEA items, but that would harmonize with them in a modernist-style dollhouse:

 

Miniature industrial modern bookshelf

 

DIY miniature dining set

 

Miniature modern bed 

 

There are many other fun videos too. Even a haunted house, in time for today.  My personal favourite is the typewriter, miniature iMac and violin. Do check out Cath’s channel. Be warned, you’ll be hooked.
