Happy 2026

Happy New Year! 
Yes I realize this month is more than halfway over but I'm a little behind. Slow and steady is my motto for the year :)  I'm currently working on creating a cozy scene in an antique wood crate that will be about 1:6 scale. I am almost finished and hope to have a video and photos up later today. 

Have you made any miniature goals for the year?  I am going to try to resist the mass produced minis and buy more "One of a Kind" handmade miniatures but some of those Zuru balls are so tempting.  Thankfully I am finding more "mini brand" items in the thrift stores which is even more exciting.

Tiny Terrariums

Image
How cute are these Tiny Terrariums from Unique Gardener    They are 1 Inch glass and they are available in quite a large variety.  I got the Sundew, Hedgehog Cactus and a Venus Fly Trap!   I can't wait to get started this weekend. I will post photos and video of the process. Do you have any live plants in your dollhouse?  I have potted babies off of spider plants and placed them in the dollhouse for decor in the past.  I haven't in my Lundby as I worry about getting any moisture in it.    I think these Terrariums would work with both 1:12 and 1/6 Scale.

Happy 2025! De-stash sale

Image
 Happy 2025! Wishing you all a wonderful year ahead! 2024 was certainly up and down for me. The Canada Post strike put a bit of a damper on my custom orders and ebay sales for the month of December but it did give me a chance to start sorting stock and organize my craft area. We moved in 24 from a house in the country, where I had a big craft room, to a tiny apt with an odd layout. It has been a challenge trying to find a spot for things and with zero storage, rubbermaid has been my best friend. I'm actually more organized now then I have ever been :) I need to make some space so I am doing a big de-stash. I have a lot of "seconds".  Minis I've made that I'm either not happy with the colour, size or style. I'm putting some lots of these at really low prices. Good for someone trying to fill a bakery or grocery store without buying cheap plastic food from T*** :) I also am listing a bunch of PVC figures, Barbie clothes and accessories, Miniature assortment lots ...
