Miniature Strollers with Car seats


Hello Mini Friends

So following my last post I’ll continue to show you all the other strollers I made up last year. 

After deciding to change the frame shape of my modern strollers to something a little more exciting and, I hasten to add, easier to construct I played with the design a bit more and found I could easily make strollers (or pushchairs as we call them in the UK), with multi positional seats and other attachments so this gave me an idea.  I wonder if you ever seen those strollers that seat two children but instead of being side by side, one child sits slightly below the other.  Well I decided to see if I could replicate this in miniature and this is how it turned out.

As you can see this twin stroller has two seats that will sit up or lay back although with limited space they don’t have a huge range of movement but I am still pleased with the outcome. 

As I was working on another idea a lady contacted me regarding a car seat.  I was already working on a miniature car seat but it had hit the back burner for a while since I was so busy with everything else.  I retrieved my project and began making adjustments.  I had decided that it would be possible to make attachments that would connect it to the stroller frame and all I needed to do at this point was some fine tuning.  The fine tuning can still take a few weeks but eventually I had created a tiny car seat that sat on a stroller frame and her she is.

My lovely customer was very happy with this and that made me even more pleased with my creation.  The tiny car seat also fits into most 1/12th scale model cars which just adds to the fun.

As always, I am never happy so I set about making a stroller seat that would attach to the frame and could be removed and replaced with the car seat.  This concept worked really well and not only this but the seat could be made to face forward or face dollhouse mom as well as sit upright or lay back fully. 

So the result is a stroller with a multi-positional, removable seat that can face in either direction and an attachable car seat.  The stroller seat is lightly padded with a full harness with a tiny side release buckle.  The car seat can be attached to the stroller frame with two tiny attachments.  The car seat has a hood, a removable handle; it is lightly padded and has a tiny three point harness.  I made three which as all available by clicking here since I didn’t get chance to put them up for sale till this year.
