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 This was created by ElementProductions for McDonald’s. Go watch it here (link is no longer available). It’s a silly commercial, but I like it! I see a few custom pieces I made as some reseller stuff and some from the lovely minimodernistas as well. Woohoo! P.S. Here’s your chance to win free mini st...
Amazing Miniatures Post On the Call of the Small‘s blog, the first sentence of her second paragraph started off with “Today, the lovely and funny Emily Henderson…” Why does that name sound familiar? “…winner of the HGTV show…” Ok, I remember her! I remember rooting for her on Design Star because she had a dry sense of humo...
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 of Small Worlds and Town Models. This post was inspired by my vacation planning and looking for miniature related things to do. After collecting a bunch of links, I thought I’d share it! The pictures above and below shows Miniaturk, a miniatures park at the Golden Horn of Istanbul in Turkey. Here’s the blurb about Miniaturk: > Mini...
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’...
Amazing Miniatures Post Petunia is finally here. She actually arrived at the beginning of this month, but I just got around to editing the pictures and writing this introduction post now (slow, I know!). She is a tinyBJD from S. Korean doll maker, LatiDoll. From what I can see, the only place you can buy brand new LatiDoll...
Amazing Miniatures Post When I first started out with miniatures, I didn’t think I would like having dolls in my scenes. I felt that they did not look realistic enough. Then eventually, I got sucked into the resin Ball Jointed Dolls scene (thanks Dakota). The BJDs changed my perceptions on dolls in miniature settings in ge...

I wish I was more active in the group, because the people are very helpful, supportive, and super talented and just fun to chat with...
