Some Things Have to be Made in Miniature

Miniature Vintage Framed Movie Posters

Worked on these all day today. I am so excited with the way they turned out. Making frames is a lot more difficult that I imaged, but I was not going to give up. I had this visual in my head and here they are. Yes, there is a Marilyn, I just got a little tired ;).

The finished sizes are 2 x 2 3/4 inches.

Shabby Chic Miniature Dollhouse Bedding

Beautiful Shabby Chic Bed…Looks so Comfy

I remade the Shabby Chic bed. It looks so comfy. I was playing around with photography and got these two really nice shots. The handmade sheet set comes with 2 sand filled pillows, 2 pillow covers, a fitted sheet and a top sheet. The hand knitted blanket is sold separately.

Mannequin Series, "Creme"

More from the Mannequin Series

I'm calling this set "Creme". One has a handmade rose while the other has a delicate lace waist band. Both have sweet bows in the back.

Sweet Miniature Ballerina Tutus on a Vintage Mannequin

New Ballerina Mannequin with Sweet Tutus

Wrapping up my mannequin series, this is the "pink" set. Both mannequins are handmade, painted and distressed. Rusted hardware is added and the stand is rusted. Each has handmade roses and a bow in the rear. They are very pretty.  Both are listed in my Etsy shop.

I have 2 more sets that will conclude the series, a cream set and a colored set. Check back, I should have them up in a few days.

New Items Going into the Etsy Shop

Just completed a series of dressed mannequins. This is the "retro" pair. One has the A-line skirt that I have worked on for awhile, I finally got it right, but it was tough. The second one has a vintage inspired apron. Both are listed in my Etsy shop.

A New Twist On An Old Favorite

Turning the Old to New Again

Just added this little cutie to my Etsy shop. The crib is painted a wonderful navy blue. I distressed to crib the give it a vintage look, then created a tufted mattress made from a creamy white and blue cotton fabric. Of course, little baby needs a comfy pillow, so I created a tiny, tiny sand filled pillow and a pillow case to match.

A Peek at New Items for the Etsy Shop

Working hard on new items for the shop

Here's a sneak peek at some of the new items I will be adding to my Etsy shop.
I have been working on mannequins for the last 2 weeks. Some have tutus, some are plain with rusted hardware and I am trying out a few colored ones with aprons (I don't have the colored ones photo'd here).
I also got a chance to work on that A-line skirt…it was hard, very hard…so I will only have one.
Lastly, I purchased a crib kit and worked at making it a little special. I hope you like it, I am really happy with the way it's turning out.

Working on a bunch of mannequins. I tried to make them all different.

I still have a few more details to add, but they are looking good.

really happy with this.
