"One of a kind treasures for a miniature world"
Welcome to my little corner of the world where all things are mini. If you have found your way here, you're probably as fascinated with the wonderful world of miniatures as I am. I got started in the wonderful world of miniatures with the desire to have *one* dollhouse to decorate and love. While I was researching which house I wanted to buy, I saw more kits than pre-built houses and finally convinced myself that I might have the skills to build a house.
The Pierce is the house of my dreams, but I was a little intimidated at the thought of building a house that large with no experience. So I ordered an Orchid as an "experimental torture house". I thought that if I was a total flop at dollhouse building, it would be better to destroy a smaller house.
Turns out that not only was I pretty good at building dollhouses, but within the first few hours, I'd learned something new about myself. I discovered I'm a miniaturist and that building dollhouses gives me more joy than anything else I've ever done in my life! Talk about a life-altering experience!! It took me three weeks to build the Orchid and before it was done, I'd ordered three more kits, including the Pierce and the Lily.
So far, I've built over 25 houses and have no intention of stopping! I've also become a member of the Greenleaf Building Team and am the Editor in Chief of The Greenleaf Gazette, a monthly newsletter devoted to miniatures. I built the prototype and wrote the instructions for the 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Arthur.
If you're looking for some "how-to" information, you can visit the section for blogs and tutorials, or go to the Greenleaf Gazette archives. And if you'd like to meet up with some of the very best people in the miniature world, come visit the Greenleaf forum. Not only are the world's best miniature talents there, but I promise that you'll make some new friends.
I'm glad you stopped by to visit. I hope that you have a little time to relax and look thru my galleries. The galleries are thumbnails with front/back arrows on either side to scroll thru them. Click on a thumbnail to view the large picture and read the description below it.
