Miniatures!

by Kelly 7 Comments

I’ve always had a bit of a thing for miniatures and doll houses. One of my crafty aims in life is to construct a beautiful multi storey dollhouse and hand make every last thing that goes in it! Considering I have 3 young girls I may have to wait until they leave home, or perhaps I could do a smaller scale “play” house as practice!

A lovely memory from my childhood is my Dad finding an old dollhouse that had belonged to one of his sisters in an old unused shed on the farm. He cleaned and painted it for me and I thought it was the most wonderful thing on earth – 2 storey and the front of the house opened and closed with a little latch. When we left the farm almost everything got sold and I think my dollhouse was among the things that went.

A little search on Etsy lead me to these wonderful discoveries:

    I love miniatures too-especially the dolls. I made a few dollhouse dolls recently, there are some pictures on my blog. I have started making some more. I'm hooked!

    i love those little itty bitty things!

    i never had a dollshouse growing up & so when I stumbled upon one at the local tip shop I was in love with it and had to buy it for my little one.

    we are searching for furniture & accessories, your finds look perfect Kel.

    I still miss my little childhood doll's house. Maybe making miniatures is what adults do to try to fill that void. I really love that little chair. It makes me think of Van Gogh.
