Welcome to my web site
My name is Lorraine Cooper and I've been designing and producing dolls house miniatures since 2002 when I was bought my first dolls house. I wanted beautiful items but couldn't find what I wanted at affordable prices, so I began making my own. Pretty soon I tried out making and selling them through eBay and eventually had my first web site built in 2003 - The Dolls House Store. Later this became - Lorraine Miniatures and The Dolls House Store. I tried my hand at making miniatures in kit form, as well as stocking a few kits from The Craft Pack Company, a business I later purchased from my friend Emma Eilbeck when she decided to move on to pastures new. I joined the IGMA (International Guild of Miniature Artisans) in 2004 and AIM (Artisans in Miniature) in 2009, I am proud to be associated with both.
I've always been passionate about quality and affordability, so I hope you will be pleasantly surprised by what you find here. We have a huge range of dolls house miniature kits, craft materials for miniaturists and beautifully handmade miniatures too. New items are being added on a weekly basis and I will feature these as we go along. Many items are exclusive to us and many are one of a kind (otherwise known as OOAK in the miniatures world)
Here you will find dolls house miniatures in the following scales 1:12th / 1 inch, 1:24th / ½ inch and 1:48th / ¼ inch scale. Items including: handcrafted miniature food, miniature flower arrangements, dressed miniature furniture, handmade dolls, miniature bedding, dollhouse accessories and dolls house miniature Christmas items. We also have a range of quality miniature china and glass. Plus, high quality items by Heidi Ott, Jane Harrop and McQueenie Miniatures.
I take commissions for items such as dressed dolls house miniature furniture, food, flowers, miniature Christmas trees and jewellery, hats, wigs, dresses, bedding, dolls house curtains etc. all made by gifted miniature artisans. I can also design you your own kits, boxes, bags, clothing items and lots more. In The Craft Pack Company section we offer one of the largest ranges of dolls house miniature kits all in one place, in Europe and possibly further afield. Many are exclusive to us having been designed and produced by Lorraine as well as previously by Emma Eilbeck and Sue Gutheridge, whilst others are sold exclusively by us, along with a range of amazing kits by gifted miniature artisans from all over the world. Our DIY dolls house miniature kits in 1:12th, 1:24th and 1:48th scale give you that 'I made this myself' sense of pride. Each kit is beautifully presented, with full, easy to follow instructions and all of the materials that you need to complete each project.
