 My Daughter recently made her food dream come true  and opened her own coffee shop.  I made this cute little model shop to display in her shop.

Mniature Star Garden

Star Garden.  This is a little garden room I recently built from a kit  Sorry the photographs aren't better but the camera really didn't like the acetate.  Was happy with the final result   

Miniature Coffee Shop

Completely fell in love with this kit when I first saw it.  So happy with the finished project.  Excellent quality kit   

Notre Dame Cathedral

Image
I was given this Notre Dame Cathedral kit as a Christmas gift. It certainly looked a bit daunting to start with, so many tiny pieces,  but it was an absolute joy to construct. I have purchased a clear case display it in and save it from the dust.   

Miniature Garden Gazebo

Quite a while  since I have posted. Life just got in the way for a bit there with lots happening in the background but still managing a bit of card making and other craft. Over the next little while I would like to share some of my projects. For a few years now I have been sending my craft work out west to a tourist shop so I will share some of the finished items. I am also working on a craft fair in a neighbouring village in a couple of months and a fair here in my own village which I am helping to organise as well as the usual monthly card swap I am involved with and of course a few birthday cards. Thank you for looking and I hope you enjoy them.  I will start with this miniature Garden Gazebo. I built this for my friend for her birthday earlier this month. It was a pleasure to build and I loved the finished project I bought another kit  to make for myself....and yes, my friend loved it.  Lots of photos in this post.    

Christmas Cocoa Shop

Image
I know it is still November but never too early for a Christmas project. and a very cute one it is.  . The Cocoa shop only measures about 4 inches square  But it is so sweet and so lovely to assemble.  

Magic House

Image
This is a Bookend Kit  It is a magic house.  It was a really interesting project  to build. The detail in it is amazing and it went together so easily  which made it a real pleasure.  Lots of photos  

Miniature Project

Image
I recently made a few miniature building projects.  I really do enjoy doing this type of craft. This one is a lounge room with a small garden room on the side.   

Miniature Room

Image
  My latest miniature that I have completed. So tiny,  only 3/2 inches square and did my head in a bit  but so cute when finished. It has a perspex dust cover to go over it but I removed it  to hopefully get some better photos.  

Miniature Room

Image
Today I would like to share a miniature room box I built recently . I have made a few changes along the way, sometimes things just don't go to plan. My friend and I call this ad - libbing rather than mistakes , However I am quite happy with the finished product and it will be off to a new home soon.    

Miniature English Tea Shop

Image
I recently completed this Tea Shop. My friend gave it to me after she found it a bit challenging as all the instruction were in a foreign language  so the only guide was very small photographs. I will say it was quite a challenge and a few short cuts were taken.   However I am still very happy with the result.  

Model Building

I recently built this Bookend Miniature room. I do enjoy miniatures, they can be a bit of a challenge at times  but the end result is always rewarding.
