The step by step instructions for this miniature flickering fire can be adjusted to several scales. Used with a battery, this fire can be installed in any miniature scene, or it can be hard wired into a dolls house electrical system. As the LED's don't emit very much heat, they are safe to use next to cellophane for a fire effect.
