all the furniture for dolls

Excellently done Helmut.  Those came out great.  Now you need a youngster that has a doll house that needs furniture.  The question you need to be asking is how expensive was the wood used? How long did it take to cut and assemble?  And what your time is worth for doing these things?  Being as they are all handmade I would think that somewhere in the $25 -$35 USD ( 23 - 32 € )  Perhaps as much as $45 USD ( 41 â‚¬ ) A lot will depend upon where and when you are selling them.   Thanks for sharing these with us.

Any young girl would Love this set of lovely furniture you made. By the way you've done a fabulous job. I wouldn't hesitate asking $75.00 Canadian. Show a prospective customer a second set finished with paint, and dressed with material and cushions for twice the price. I know as a customer which one I would purchase. I would stack cut each piece three at a time to keep your time down. Wish you all the best on the sales.

This is really beautiful.  I would really like to know if patterns are available for these.  My Father made a doll house for my daughter when she was little.   Because of his early death, it was not completely finished.  I never got around to it (I know, my bad).  My daughter kept it for years and because she had no daughter finally gave it to her Husband's mother, who wanted to finish it and give it to one of her granddaughters.  She did finish it and gave it to the granddaughter.  I would love to make a set of furniture like yours to add to it.

Nicely done Helmut, is this one of your designs? I find it very hard to price an outfit such as this, I know there's lots of work involved in making the set, but, there's not usually a lot of money in selling it. These type of cuts are something I would make for a daughter or special niece, I would never make a set like this hoping to make money off of it. People just don't want to pay what it's worth, they will go and buy something plastic instead. If I made this to sell, I'd expect to get around $70.00-$80.00 there's a lot of fretwork in it. Plus, there's a lot of BB plywood used in making the set, and it is not cheap!
