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! I even missed an Etsy post on Sunday. TT (Don’t worry, I made it up though!) With week 2 being over, that means that I am only halfway through with the 31 Days of Etsy Chall...
Fairyland Ball Jointed Dolls BJD for 1:12 Scale Dollhouses, the Puki Puki Pong Pong model. After some delays caused by the snowstorm that hit New England recently, my first asian ball jointed doll FINALLY came yesterday. He’s from a S. Korean company called, Fairyland, but I ordered it through their official US retailer, Denver Doll Emporium. I outlined it all in the old BJD for 1:12 Scal...
A review of the first week of the 31 Days of Etsy challenge to make one new miniature dollhouse item each day of this month. Has it been only been a week? It feels like its been a month with all the work and pressure! I’m starting to feel tapped out >\< Feel free to follow my Twitter feed as I announce there whenever I create a new listing. Anywho, here’s the promised weekly recap on the 31 Days of Etsy Challenge! Day 1: ...
Making Dollhouse Miniature Tumblers/Cups on the Cheap! I have a habit of thinking in miniature ALL THE TIME, so I am always on the lookout for 1:1 scale stuff that I can repurpose into something in 1:12 scale. In a recent trip to HomeDepot, I spied these end caps for the ClosetMaid shelving units and immediately thought “dollhouse cups!” They’re made of...

AmazingMiniatures.com: 2010 in Review I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I had a great holiday despite a huge blizzard hitting Massachusetts right after Christmas. It was still awesome because I was able to spend some quality time with family! ❤️ With 2010 coming to a close, I thought I would do a year in review for the AmazingMin...
Showcasing Mike's 1:12 Stick Built Hollow Wall Dollhouse If you’ve visit the Greenleaf forums lately, I’m sure you’ve seen Mike’s post on his stick built, hollow wall custom dollhouse. He also has a blog that he regularly updates as well. I am learning so much on how to build a dollhouse with frames, similar to how you would build a human sized house. And...
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. I gave the buyer a quote based on the time I expected to take to finish it…...
Now that the coventry cottage dollhouse is done, it's time to have some fun setting up some miniature scenes for a photo shoot! I just posted the Coventry for sale on Craigslist and Etsy. Hopefully I'll get a buyer so I can get myself that Ball Jointed Doll. ;) If I don't sell it by Dec 25th, its going to be raffled off at my dad's church's xmas party. Either way, its going somewhere. While I still have it, I'm going to have...
