Customer Reviews

Wonderful book on miniatures, dolls and Tasha Tudor's life
If you have ever been enchanted by Tasha Tudor's books and illustrations, you will lover her book on miniatures. The photography compliments the text, providing fascinating insight into her world (1830's). Excellent for those who love dolls and their accessories.

MISLEADING...NOT REALLY TASHA TUDOR'S DOLLHOUSE
I am surprised to find out that Tasha Tudor's dollhouse is not pictured in the book, but the title leads us to believe we will see the "real" thing. My understanding was that the balnk pages were to have been drawings by Tasha Tudor. Did she refuse to do the drawings because she didn't approve of the book? So aside from the furnishings being from Tasha, the book is misleading. I would rather see Tasha Tudor's real dollhouse not a newly made replica. I was disappointed with this book, especially knowing that Tasha did not want it published.

Inspiring!
Those who say this isn't the "real" doll house are missing the point entirely! The Williamsburg house was specially made because "Thaddeus Crane" and "Emma Birdwhistle" never had their own proper dollhouse, but lived on shelves. The book explains this quite clearly. The one-quarter life size scale is fascinating in itself. Anyone who is a fan of handmade dolls, doll houses, or Tasha Tudor should delight in this amazing book. I wouldn't trade it for the world.
