Holiday time!!!!!!

At last my holiday is just around the corner im so ready for a break ! thought i would share some of my recent makes with you, ive started my own basket range and finding it quite theraputic i cant stop making them , at last i can make a basket that fits my 1 12th scale miniatures with enough detail , my imagination is starting to get out of hand so maybe the holiday has come just in time !!

Time to knuckle down !

Well the weather is on the turn and autumn is in the air , the nights are drawing in its a sign that i`m going to be busy in my mini study, i`m already thinking about christmas, i know thats sad but theres so much to do and so little time, a recent addition to my etsy store are my own range of baskets i just cant stop making them !!!!!! filling them with fruits and vegetables is very rewarding pictures really dont do them any justice, theres nothing like seeing something with the naked eye, i really miss doing the shows maybe i could sort something out for next year but like i said never enough time !!!!!!

where is the sunshine ???

Its the middle of june and what is going on with the weather ? looking outside looks like its going to be another drizzly day so im sorting through my mini`s i have a lovely new study to work in now so i have to keep it tidy ! ive just listed some more strawberry miniatures  on my etsy site please pop along and take a look heres a sneaky peak x.

Hi everyone just a few of my favourite things i have for sale on etsy, when the weather is miserable outside i cant think of anything better than feeding my passion for all things mini so have spent the afternoon busy designing new pieces that will soon be for sale, hope you like them.

This cute little basket of gooseberrys is another addition to my collection of fine 1 12th scale miniatures, its currently on sale in my etsy shop its perfect for a little corner of the miniature kitchen , its a long time since i last posted but  im back now and making time for something that i love doing , will be listing more items over the next few days so please come back and visit me.

Beef stew !!

Sorry it`s been a long time since my last post but i`ve been really busy with  the house trying to get things in order  , once you make a dent in something you notice other things that need looking at and before you know it your up to your eyeballs ,hopefully thats it for a  while !!! back to important things like miniatures thought i`d share some of my savoury mini`s today this hot pot is one of my favourites my nan used to make this all the time  , wish i`d took more notice when she was cooking i`m a rubbish cook !! she`d make everything look so easy, but so tasty  !!! its a shame the washing up wasn`t so easy they didn`t have dish washers in thoses days that`s what grandchildren were for  ( well thats what she kept telling me anyway !!)

Chocolate truffles anyone ??

Here are some miniatures i have made this week, i have included a photo of my messy work area !! the shame of it , good job it`s in the loft and nobody else see`s  it except like minded miniaturist who appreciate the organised chaos that inspires us , well that`s what i keep telling myself , i`m in chocolate mode for now and this is my first attempt at a chocolate box filled with truffles, i`m trying out different papers for the box so will probably have dozens by the time i`m completely happy with it, when there done they will be coming to Newark for my next show , enjoy ! remember no calories !!
