Miniature Hinamatsuri Doll Set by Re-Ment

March 31, 2012

Boy do I feel like an idiot. I thought I had posted this already. I spotted these photos as I was backing up a bunch of images when it occurred to me that I never blogged about them. DOH! I meant to post this on March 3rd, for Girl’s Day, a Japanese celebration called Hinamatsuri. Isn’t [...]

Making it Snazzy!

March 12, 2012

After some user feedback and working on 3 different prototypes, I’ve settled on a more refined and easier to assemble version of the VIKAesque wood kit. In addition to an upgraded design, the whole thing is now cut entirely from Baltic Birch plywood (previous version was a hybrid of bamboo and birch) so there should be a [...]

Betwixt & Between

February 9, 2012

Oh boy, it’s been a while. Do you miss me? I sure miss everyone! I know my last few posts lacked any substance and I tried to get back into the rhythm for the holidays, but eventually decided to just take a break from miniatures and this blog for a bit. Hope you didn’t mind. I’ve [...]

Hello.Shawn House Pre-Prototype Preview

August 2, 2011

Here’s what I’ve been working on in the past few months. You might have seen some clues about it posted on my facebook page. It’s an actual 1:12 dollhouse. The Hello.Shawn house is named after my annoying lovely baby brother. Okay, he’s not really a baby, being in high school and all, but since I [...]

Mini Swap From Fabulous Fran

July 8, 2011

I finally finished uploading and editing the photos from my swap with Fabulous Fran of FranMadeMinis. There are gobs of pictures, so click the thumbnails below for a better view and my comments. It’s no surprise that my favorite is a tie between the umbrella and the suitcase; both of which are Fran’s forte. Go ahead, [...]

All About the Cube Cubby

May 9, 2011

This is sort of a “making of” post on the process that went into creating the Cube Cubby. As simple the bookcase/storage unit seems, it took about a year to figure it out, only because I was testing a variety of methods to make them in the level of detail I wanted under a certain [...]

May 7, 2011

I know it’s been a LONG time since I last posted.. sorry! Between working the day job, freelancing, and working on a secret project, *wink*wink* it didn’t leave me much time to blog, unfortunately. To get the ball rolling again, I just want to show off a recent purchase that I LOVE LOVE LOVE. Introducing [...]

Creatology Dollhouse with Veranda Pictorial Instructions

March 10, 2011

Ever since writing the first post on the Creatology dollhouse, I find my blog getting quite a few hits from the search engine from people who were looking for the instructions. Since I didn’t actually have instructions, I thought it would be useful to put some pictorial directions/tips together as I was assembling a new [...]

Creatology Dollhouse Considerations

February 12, 2011

Remember that Creatology Dollhouse I wrote about last summer? Nothing has been done with it since that last post (else I’d write about it, right?) and it’s currently being used as a tiny shelf in my workshop space. You can actually see it here, LOL. I am at the point where I am seriously considering finishing it [...]

Mike’s 1:12 Stick Built Hollow Wall Dollhouse

December 18, 2010

If you’ve visit the Greenleaf forums lately, I’m sure you’ve seen Mike’s post on his stick built, hollow wall custom dollhouse. He also has a blog that he regularly updates as well. I am learning so much on how to build a dollhouse with frames, similar to how you would build a human sized house. And this [...]
