🪑 DIY Mini Doll Furniture Set (Chair, Table, Bench, Desk & More!)





 



If you love crafting tiny things or setting up dollhouses, this project is for you! With just cardboard and a few basic tools, you can create a complete set of mini doll furniture — including chairs, tables, benches, and desks — in different styles. It’s easy, affordable, and endlessly customizable.

🧰 Materials You’ll Need

  • Thick cardboard sheets or craft board

  • Glue gun or craft glue

  • Scissors or craft knife

  • Ruler & pencil

  • Paint, colored paper, or fabric scraps for decoration

  • Optional: small beads, sticks, or straws for detailing

🪚 Step-by-Step: Mini Doll Furniture

1. Mini Doll Chair

  • Draw and cut out 2 rectangles for the sides, 1 for the backrest, and 1 for the seat.

  • Glue the seat between the sides, then attach the backrest.

  • Decorate with paint or tiny cushions made from fabric and cotton.

2. Mini Table (3 Types)

Type 1: Simple Square Table
Cut a 6×6 cm square for the top and 4 narrow strips (3 cm tall) for legs. Glue the legs under the tabletop.

Type 2: Round Café Table
Cut a small circle for the top and use a rolled cardboard tube as the stand. Attach a circular base for stability.

Type 3: Foldable Look Table
Use a rectangular top and create an “X” frame for the legs by crossing two strips — perfect for a modern or picnic look.

3. Mini Bench

  • Cut a long seat (about 8×3 cm) and two side supports.

  • Add a backrest strip for comfort.

  • Paint or wrap with colored paper for a polished finish.

4. Mini Desk

  • Use the same technique as the table but add a small shelf or drawer front for realism.

  • Decorate the top with faux books or a mini computer made from scrap paper!

🎨 Decoration Tips

  • Use brown or white paint for a realistic wood finish.

  • Add tiny fabric mats or cushions for detail.

  • Wrap cardboard in printed paper to mimic marble or wood grain.

  • Add popsicle sticks or toothpicks for legs to make furniture stronger.

🌿 Why Cardboard Works Great

Cardboard is sturdy, lightweight, and easy to shape — making it ideal for miniature crafts. Plus, it’s a great way to recycle materials from old boxes while having fun.

💡 Bonus Idea

Create a mini furniture set theme — such as:

  • Study room (desk, chair, bookshelf)

  • Garden setup (bench, picnic table)

  • Café corner (round table, chairs)

📷 Finishing Touch

Once your pieces are complete, arrange them into a cute mini room scene. Add tiny books, plates, or plants for extra charm — perfect for dollhouses or decorative displays!
