How to Make a Miniature Sofa From Scratch (Foam Board, Fabric & Zero Panic DIY)
In this build we’re going to make a fully upholstered miniature sofa from scratch using foam board, batting, and fabric. No 3D printer, no premade kit – just simple materials and some patient cutting and gluing.
This guide is designed so you can copy the basic structure or riff on it and design your dream couch in miniature. I’ll give you exact sample measurements for a comfy little two-seater (roughly 1:12 scale), but you can absolutely tweak them as you like.

Jetsons-Style Dreams in Miniature: A Retro-Futuristic Apartment Tour
You’re looking at my favorite kind of time travel: the kind that fits on a bookshelf. This whole apartment diorama suite is inspired by the Jetsons’ optimistic 1960s future—rounded windows, brass pendants, sky-high views, and furniture that looks like it might hover if you just wink at it. From the glassy transport tube to the turquoise flying car in the garage, every scene leans into retro-futuristic, mid-century “Googie” charm.

Gradient & Grind: A Contemporary Ombré Café in Miniature
Welcome to Gradient & Grind, founded in the very small year of 2017 in the even smaller town of Tintown, where residents argue about Pantone numbers the way other places argue about sports. The café’s founder, Dot Ombrelle, is a former paint-deck librarian who believes coffee tastes better when the walls blend like a perfect sunrise. The head barista, Milo “Milk Cloud” Reyes, can pour a swan, a tulip, and once (allegedly) the Fibonacci sequence.
