Welcome to Paper Minis! As you
navigate through the treasures of Paper Minis, you may
notice that
these products are designed to stand alone... in other words
you do not have to own a dollhouse to collect and enjoy Paper Minis kits.
Take your time to look through the catalog. If you are new
to the hobby, make sure you sign up for the free club and
learn how to assemble printies using the complimentary
projects. See how from the menu or end of this page.
International customers
you will be happy to know that Paper Minis are available in
many countries now and you can see the list by selecting the
appropriate link from the menu to the left. All my retailers
have a great selection to choose from. However, if there are
products in particular you would like which your retailer
does not carry, you are still free to order straight from
the Paper Minis website if you like. ~ Ann at

Revisit Two Great Paper Minis Kits (1:12 Scale) |

interested in stocking a library and making it look very
realistic, I have two kits of books (52 books total) that
are scaled small to fit most under-scaled 1:12 bookcases.
These are reproductions of antique books with title pages,
patterned end boards, and blank cream-colored pages. These

deal!
