The first original Amazing Miniatures designed dollhouse, the Nyne house. So this is the project that I dreamt up a few months ago and have been planning since. I actually started working on it a few weeks ago in my spare time (which is very limited) and have only got to the framing process. Remember a post I made a long while back? The Nyne House is sort of it’s great, g...
Just a little update on the workspace used to great Amazing miniatures. This is an update of sorts from the workspace situation back in August when I was exiled from the dining room then. While some of my stuff is still there, the bulk of it is now back in the basement since the smell isn't as bad any more. I still do most of the "clean" crafting in my office (the door ...
Amazing miniatures is having a free giveaway for anyone who likes our facebook page to win a miniature modern bookcase. As you know from a previous post, I have been experimenting with making plastic copies of the Modern Bookcase. I’m finally at the point where I can make them without too much errors and too much time spent on fixing or polishing up the casts. Now, it takes about 1.5 hours to prep the mold, pour resi...
Minimodernistas' Web Shop! It was recently announced that Minimodernistas aka Doris Nathanson just opened her very own shop! She is someone I greatly admire and is one of my inspirations in the modern mini-world. Heck, just look at the picture above.. her work is amazing! So you should really check out her web shop at Minimod...
I am now trying to create the modern dollhouse bookcase using resin plastic casting. So the scene above looks vaguely familiar, but can you spot the big difference? I know, I know, the picture color is a bit washed out (sloppy editing), its missing the shelf items, and there’s the Tulip chair, but…. the big difference is that the shelf is actually a plastic reproduction! It first st...

I just bought the Lilliput Mulberry Lane Dollhouse Kit off Craigslist. I am in big trouble. I am in big trouble. I just bought ANOTHER dollhouse. I’m still not done with my Coventry Cottage, I haven’t even started on the Willow, I’m in the middle of a scratch build, and I go and buy another house! I’m really running out of hiding places and the size of this thing is pretty big (as are most...
Happy Halloween from Amazing Miniatures. I just want to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! I know I haven’t been posting, but it’ll change very soon, I promise!
Finally Finding the Time for Miniatures and blogging about it all. My last post was on October 1st. Since then, I’ve been busy with two different web design projects, had problems with the server that amazingminiatures.com was on so I had to move it to a new one, and I had TWO weddings to go to; one was two states away. With so much going on, I had zero time to wor...
Some Amazing Miniatures website update about the site Blackout and New Etsy Shop. Problems with the Server: So my site was down for some time due to problems with the hosting provider JustHost.com. Its funny because about 6 months ago, I moved this site from another unreliable host (LunarPages.com) thinking that this would solve the problems. And I chose JustHost based on their g...
