Working Modern Fireplace

Check out our working Modern Fireplace. This contemporary design has been brought to life by the addition of tiny LED's to provide a red glow to the logs and fireback.





It works off a standard 12v dolls house supply and is provided with a standard dolls house plug which can be removed for soldering to copper tape.

Available in both kit form and ready made: Working Fireplaces


I am working towards making all my fireplaces working over the coming weeks.

New Product - Miniature Marble Finish Tiles

If you are looking for a marble tile but at a fraction of the cost then check out my new products.

These 1/2" square tiles are currently available in 2 colours - grey and creamy white but I'm looking to expand the range of colours and sizes so if there's a colour or size you would like then leave a comment or drop me an e-mail.

At 2mm thick they look and feel just like a real tile and are perfect for floors or walls.  To achieve the most realistic finish they are best glued on  with PVA glue leaving 1mm gaps between the tiles then grouted.*

They are available in 3 pack sizes on the website - 25 tiles, 50 tiles and 100 tiles but I can make these up in any quantity so if you have a large room or you don't know how many you need, drop me an e-mail and I'll work out the quantity and send you a Paypal invoice.


Discounts are available for buying larger quantities.

JS Miniatures Tiles

EDIT: Also available in green faux marble and in 3/4" and 1" sizes. Drop me an e-mail to order.



*Grout is available from Richard Stacey http://www.richardstacey.com/mortar.html#grout

Kit Review in Dolls House & Miniature Scene Magazine

For subscribers who had the Dolls House & Miniature Scene magazine drop on their doormat yesterday, you may have spotted that there was a kit review for our Georgian Marble Fireplace on page 75.

We were thrilled to receive such a positive review for our first fireplace.

Here are a couple of snippets from the review by Ann Sutcliffe for those of you that may not get the magazine:

"The instructions are impeccable, with absolutely nothing missed out, pictures, letters, and diagrams to show you all the way."

"The materials used, solid wood and imitation marble, lend a real weight to the finished model, making it a substantial and very appealing piece of miniature architectural furniture.  Because the pieces of this kit are precision cut, the whole build is absolutely trouble-free."

Ann has painted her kit in a Craig & Rose 1929 Adam Cream emulsion and it picks up the colours in the green imitation marble nicely.

The kit is available in 3 other colours - cream, red and brown.

We have now got matching hearths in the same imitation marble and these will be on the website in the next couple of days so if you would like to buy a kit with a hearth drop me an e-mail and I'll sort it out for you.
