Miniatures

One of the great thing about minis is making minis to go inside of minis.   Here are a few little things that I've had fun making. 

I was fortunate to be able to participate in a class by Tracy Topps to make this gorgeous vignette from a picture frame:

These are some of my original creations.  Tutorials for some of them can be found in my blogs and tutorials section or in the Greenleaf Gazette Archive.

I made quite a few things for the Japanese Edo Period house:

Kimono chests:                                                                         Tatami Mats and pillows:

   

And sliding shoji doors that really work:

The Faerie's Cottage is almost completely furnished with items I made myself.  You can see most of them in detail on the page for that house.  Here's a closeup of the shell sink:
