Welcome!
The Miniature Society of Cincinnati (MSC) is a hands-on club in the Cincinnati tri-state area. We meet on the second Wednesday of each month at 7 pm at the Kenwood Fellowship Church to socialize, share, and build dollhouse miniatures. You can learn more about our meetings here.
We currently have around 50 miniature enthusiasts, ranging in experience and ages. Our creations are as varied as we are. You’ll find everything from historically accurate room boxes to whimsical fairy wonderlands, from tiny scenes in watch cases, teacups, and matchboxes to full-size dollhouses. Feel free to browse our Galleries to see some of our work.
What are miniatures?
“Miniatures” refers to creations that are 1:12 scale (or smaller), also called “dollhouse scale.” The 1:12 scale means 1 inch scale size = 1 foot in actual size. For example, a 3-inch-tall miniature chair represents a 3-foot-tall chair.
We also work in smaller scales, including half-inch (1:24) and quarter-inch (1:48). To learn more about miniature scales, click HERE.
