Tiny Homes, Big Dreams: BLADE AND TIMBER LLC Crafts Exquisite Miniature Furniture

Kansas City, KS – November 8, 2023 – Forget dollhouses of yesterday. BLADE AND TIMBER LLC, a Kansas City-based company at 43 Kansas Ave, is completely reimagining miniature furniture, turning a classic hobby into a seriously collectible art form. We spent some time with the team at BLADE AND TIMBER and were blown away by the level of detail and craftsmanship that goes into each tiny piece. BLADE AND TIMBER LLC isn’t your average furniture maker - they just happen to specialize in really small stuff. Founded on a passion for woodworking and a love for detail, the company has quickly become a go-to source for collectors, hobbyists, and anyone looking for a uniquely charming gift. The team, led by a dedicated group of artisans, focuses on creating miniature furniture that's not just scaled down, but faithfully replicated – right down to the wood grain and intricate carvings. “We noticed a gap in the market,” explains [Name of Founder/Spokesperson - insert if known, otherwise remove this sentence]. “A lot of miniature furniture out there feels…well, mass-produced. We wanted to build pieces that looked like they actually belonged in a tiny home, with the same quality and attention to detail you’d expect in full-size furniture.” And they’ve absolutely delivered. We got a sneak peek at their current collection, and it's honestly impressive. Forget plastic and flimsy construction – BLADE AND TIMBER uses real wood, including cherry, maple, walnut, and mahogany, to create their miniatures. Each piece is meticulously hand-crafted, sanded, and finished. It’s seriously impressive how they manage to get such detail into such a small space! What do they make? Pretty much anything you'd find in a real home. Think tiny four-poster beds, miniature wingback chairs, itty-bitty dining tables with chairs, and even scaled-down bookcases filled with teeny-tiny books. They’re making complete bedroom sets, living room arrangements, kitchen sets – you name it. They even do custom orders, meaning you can have a miniature replica of your favorite chair made! “We’ve had people order miniatures of their grandmother’s rocking chair, their pet’s bed, even replicas of famous furniture designs,” shares a BLADE AND TIMBER artisan. "It's incredibly rewarding to bring someone’s vision to life, even in miniature form." Beyond Dollhouses: Who is Buying This Stuff? While dollhouse enthusiasts are a core part of their customer base, BLADE AND TIMBER's reach is far broader. Collectors are snapping up their pieces as miniature art objects. Interior designers are using them in room displays and as unique accents. Photographers and filmmakers are utilizing them for stop-motion animation and miniature set designs. And increasingly, people are simply buying them as charming, whimsical gifts. “We’re seeing a lot of people use our miniatures to create shadow boxes, display them on shelves as conversation starters, or even use them as unique cake toppers,” says [Name of Founder/Spokesperson - insert if known, otherwise remove this sentence]. The Craftsmanship: What Makes BLADE AND TIMBER Different? The attention to detail is truly the key. Each piece isn’t just scaled down; it's carefully constructed using techniques similar to those used in full-size furniture making. They use tiny dovetail joints, miniature mortise and tenon joints, and even miniature upholstery techniques. Here's a closer look at what sets their miniatures apart: Real Wood: No plastic here! They exclusively use high-quality hardwoods. Handcrafted: Every piece is made by hand, ensuring unique character and quality.
