Ikea "Huset"

Some of you might now that the Swedish furniture store IKEA just made miniature furnitures =)

I have read a lot about it and many people said that they would be in 1:15 scale, and I was so looking forward to this, I LOVE Ikea! =) I thought they were going to start selling them in August, but when I visited Ikea this weekend I just happen to see them =) But they looked sooo big. No way they are 1:15 after talking to others and some measuring I think they are more like 1:8. Too big for my dollhouse but a bit too small for Barbie. I might let my daughter play with them, but the carpet, the pillow and the self might work anyway, maybe the chair too, but the sofa is big.. Just look at this =) My 1:12 scale lady relaxing in the sofa..

The furnitures are sold in one set and every piece is a miniature after "real" furnitures. =) I saw the chairs outside the store, I like miniatures after "real" things =)

I did measure them quickly and got these numbers if anyone is interested how big they are =)
Self: 18,5cm High, 10cm wide, 5cm deep
Table: 6cm high, 7cm wide
Chair: 10,5cm wide, 9cm high
Sofa: 22,5cm wide, 11cm deep, 9cm high
Carpet: 28x18,5cm

I think they are quite cute and I hope to find a place for them somewhere =)

Take care
