31 Days of Etsy Challenge: Week 2 Review Many apologies for the late weekly review post. There were too many baby showers and birthdays going on over the long weekend!

ScrapBook Paper for Minis! My Recent Acquisitions I went on a mini-shopping spree for minis last week! I’m quite pleased with some of my purchases. The hardware store had contact paper that had a Faux leather print on it. ZOMG the possibilities! It would work great as flooring, but I think I’ve found my Nyne kitchen floor! But while at the craft st...

A custom Etsy order of miniature planters in wood. Designed and created by Amazing Miniatures. I’ve recently had my first custom order on Etsy. Honestly, I’m still very new to Etsy, so it was pretty exciting to get a custom request. It was for a set of two miniature planters in 1:12 scale, referencing the image above.

Thoughts and news on the costs of shipping miniatures, showcasing a prototype, and an update to the Amazing Miniatures Etsy shop. Sorry for the lack of posts all week.
