Happy New Years from AmazingMiniatures.com I just want to do a quick post to wish everyone a very happy new years! Stay safe everyone!

Just a short update on the status of the AmazingMiniatures.com website. If you haven’t already guessed, the site design is still unfinished. I was just too excited after getting the kit that I needed to start this site right away to document everything. So the general design (among other things) are left in a state of disarray. Also, if you are wondering, I am using Wor...

I just purchased a rotary tool in hopes that it will help out with the detail work when building my dollhouse. Sorry, but I have nothing new on the progress of the Coventry Cottage. I still wanted to update this blog about the fact that I just bought a rotary tool manufactured by Black & Decker. This should really help cut down the time on sanding and cutting the wood pieces! Any suggestions for other kinds ...

In part 2 of my Coventry Cottage progress update, I am finally able to start piecing together the frame of my dollhouse. With Christmas fast approaching, it was really tough for me during the past few days to find the time to work on the Coventry Cottage kit. I had hoped to have it finished by Christmas, but its looking very unlikely at this time. Regardless, I did get a chance to work on it a bit last night and was f...

I did have time in between running errands to stop by my local arts and crafts store, Michaels to nab some unfinished dollhouse furniture. I recall them having much more variety of unfinished furniture back a year or two ago. Now I ...

Part 1 of a series of posts documenting my first dollhouse project, building the Greenleaf Coventry Cottage. So today is day 1 on the project. Time to read the instructions. Since this is my first kit ever, it was quite a lot to digest! I did sort of prepare though. Notice the pen and pencil ready so I can mark those soon-to-be punched out pieces along with some sandwich bags to hold the loose parts pictur...

My Greenleaf Coventry Cottage arrives in the mailbox today. I am excited to get started on building my very first dollhouse. My Greenleaf Coventry Cottage arrived today. Hip hip hooray! This kit was chosen as my very first dollhouse to build because it’s small, relatively inexpensive, it includes furniture, shingles, and is just an overall great starter build. I will be working on a few of these smaller kits to get a bit ...

I started this blog to document my journey in learning about dollhouses and miniatures and to showcase my collection. My name is Ann and I've finally decided to take the plunge to buy a dollhouse kit, build it, furnish it, and then start all over again. I am a total novice in regards to dollhouses and miniatures, but I have always been fascinated by it as child. It still fascinates me now! As someone who has always...
