Miniature Hinamatsuri Doll Set by Re-Ment, photos by Amazing Miniatures 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 that just wo...
Amazing Miniatures Post 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...
Amazing Miniatures Post 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 been telling fri...
Amazing Miniatures Post Please see the photography and write up for the assembly instructions for the deer head. Some of you may have already gotten it (nice!). Some will get it soon depending on your location and which batch your order was made in. As always, if you have any questions, please email me! And while all that ...
Amazing Miniatures Post The sale has ended. Thank you!

The most time intensive part of developing kits will be writing the directions. But that only needs to be done once and with that done, I can...
Showing off a prototype for a dollhouse miniature cardboard deer trophy head where I modeled a deer from scratch and sliced it up to miniaturize it. As a treat to my email subscribers, I hinted at a project I was working on in the first newsletter sent out in July. The picture above was what I included in the newsletter. I was intentionally ambiguous. I didn’t want to make it too obvious, lest things did not turn out as expected. 😉 But I am sur...
Amazing Miniatures Post Do you remember the suitcase pictured above? It was gifted to me by the wonderful Fran from FranMadeMinis in a swap a few weeks ago (in case you need some reminding). Durning one of our email conversations, she mentioned that it is the first and only working suitcase she has ever made. I had to read...
Amazing Miniatures Post I’ve been doing a bit of shopping for them and I am at the point where I’m happy with the way they look (for the most part). I bought a wig from Mimiwoo.com for Dakota. The wig was made specifically for Volks 1:6 scale Dollfies and was a bit overgrown for for him. I was expecting this, though. After...
Amazing Miniatures Post 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’...
