At Dollhouse Collectables, you can not only find dollhouses and dollhouse kits and guides, but also a wide range of doll house dolls. We offer porcelain dolls, miniatures, Victorian ribbon work, and antique reproductions right here online. All the products we have are chosen and designed with the best materials for an incredibly beautiful look.
If you are looking to buy doll house dolls, you need to ensure that the dolls match the size of the doll house. To do this, you should match the height of the room and check whether the dolls match the furniture and other miniature decorations and furniture added inside the doll house.
Find out what kind of doll house you have- toy or miniature. Miniature dollhouses are perfectly made to scale and everything inside has to match that, so they are mostly seen with collectors. Toy doll houses do not match a scale, and they are usually used by children for playing. The simplest method of matching dolls with a doll house is to put them in various areas of the house. When standing, the doll should have a comfortable amount of space between its head and the ceiling. The doll should fit on the bed and furniture comfortably.
Scale, of course, is not as big a problem for children as it is for collectors and doll house enthusiasts. Nevertheless, finding scaled dolls for miniature doll houses is not a difficult task because most of our doll house dolls are made for miniature houses. However, we also stack small-sized dolls that are 4-6 inches tall and fashion-sized dolls that are usually big enough for Barbie doll houses.

How to Match Dollhouse Doll Size and Dollhouse
Scale
Match doll and dollhouse sizes by comparing the dollhouse
doll to the height of the room and by checking how the doll
appears to fit in the furniture.
1. |
Understand that there are two types of
dollhouses - miniature and toy dollhouses. |
2. |
Be aware that miniatures are made exactly
to scale, and everything in the dollhouse dolls should
match the scale. Generally, these are collector's items.
|
3. |
Know that toy dollhouses are not made to
scale. |
4. |
Know, too, that the simplest way to match
a doll and dollhouse is to place the doll in the dollhouse
and see whether it looks like it's the right size - with
at least several inches between the doll's head and ceiling.
|
5. |
Lay the dollhouse dolls down on a bed in
the dollhouse. The doll should fit comfortably on the
bed and not hang over the edges or appear lost in it. |
6. |
Realize that a child will not be hugely
particular about having everything in the dollhouse exactly
the same scale. |
7. |
Make sure the dollhouse dolls
fit through any doorways and that the doll appears to
fit comfortably in any chairs. When seated at a table,
the table should be between waist and shoulder level.
|
8. |
Recognize that, in general, dollhouses
dolls are made in miniature size, in which the dolls are
only several inches high; small size, in which the dolls
are 4 to 6 inches tall; and fashion size, in which the
house is made for Barbie-size dollhouse dolls. |
Tips:
If you are trying to buy a dollhouse dolls
for a specific set of dollhouse dolls, bring the dolls with
you when you shop.
If you are choosing dollhouse dolls, measure the ceiling
height and bring a bed or chair with you for easy comparison.
With a 1-inch-scale dollhouse, each inch corresponds to 1
foot of a real house or piece of furniture. Half-inch scale
is smaller, using 1/2 inch per foot.
