    Sisters

    From the album: Room Box for My Sister

    The two pictures on the wall are of each of us in first grade. We both have red hair so I had to repaint the hair on the larger doll, which was originally blond.

    This "electric meter box" hides the battery for the 3 LED lights.

    I gave my sister's birthday as the house number This is the front of the closed box.

    This shows the illusion of depth, as if the rooms go on way behind the sofas. That's where I experimented with the Paper Tole technique. Very effective in small miniatures! I added a book to the little girl's hand. It was shaped oddly, in my opinion, as she's holding the flowers in one hand, but the other one is raised and cupped like she should have something in it - so I gave her a book to hold.

    Looking into the living room towards the right. The two pictures on the wall are of our Dad and his sister, Aunt Babe. Note the little white dot about level with the top of the sofa - that is the light switch.

    The lid drops open to become the floor, with the micro dollhouse and toys glued to the lid. Everything else is inside the box.

  9. Hello, this is my very first post here as I've only just joined this community forum, so be kind!! My name's Niccy, and I'm 1 third of Magpies-Miniatures.net... Magpies-Miniatures is a family run business, from Near Ulverston, in Cumbria, UK. We are based on the edge of the stunning Lake District, and have a good deal of country air running through our lungs, and we consider ourselves to be extremely lucky to bring our services to you from such a beautiful corner of the world. There are three faces here behind the scenes - Mandy is the business owner, founder, and holds great knowledge in all things miniature. She has been behind the scenes from the very beginning, and with the help of her husband, Jon - is the one responsible for the website!. Jon has been the quietest member of the team, but his talents in computer programming, databases and the fact he's extremely artistic and fantastic at any craft he sets his mind to- he's incredible valuable in our eyes, and those of our business too. The newest member of the team is myself, Niccy. I am the daughter of Mandy and Jon, and hold college qualifications in Art and Design, which is where my passion lies. I have taken on the role of keeping the website updated and looking fresh, with improved stock photography, and dealing with social media. All of us have something different to give to the business, which is why we work so well together as a team, in keeping our business running smoothly, and bringing you the service you'd expect as a customer, which has so many of you returning. We stock dolls' house miniatures from a host of suppliers- including heirloom-quality Jia Yi Miniatures, Bespaq, wallpapers from Jackson's, and furniture and accessories from Streets Ahead, Warwick Miniatures, plus fabulously impressive self-build (DIY) kits from McQueenies, and Phoenix Models. If you are looking for something specific and are struggling to find it, again please get in touch and we can have a scout around our suppliers to find what you are looking for. We will always go the extra mile for each and every one of our customers. We hope you enjoy looking around our webstore, find us at www.magpies-miniatures.net I will be popping on to the forums again soon to participate elsewhere, but for tonight my bed's calling!! Goodnight folks, hope to wake to some replies and friendly waves! - Niccy

    It is taking a very long time to get all the wiring done! Still have to hide the battery.

  11. I just saw this and had to share it ... She has taken some adorable miniature pictures using live squirrels in her mini-stagings. So cute! That's nuts! Wild squirrels pose for charming pictures after photographer hides food around miniature props http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2297585/Wild-squirrels-pose-charming-pictures-photographer-hides-nuts-miniature-props.html

    Cabin One

    From the album: Room Box for My Sister

    I think I'm finished with the two cabins. This one has a little boy with his wagon. Don't you love that little bicycle?

  15. From the album: The Borrowers in Washington

    Wallpaper, floorboards, stone cellar under the floor, and a living room scene on the left. The dollhouse in the picture is one I made - a 1:144 scale Garfield Mansion. In the original Borrower books the little people liked to visit the Manor's dollhouse, where they found items just their size.

    As in the original books, the boy of the house has befriended the Borrowers.

  17. From the album: The Borrowers in Washington

    This fellow came from a set of train people that were supposed to be hikers with their backpacks. They looked like "Borrowers" to me!

  18. From the album: The Borrowers in Washington

    A little closer look at their quarters - not finished yet. Note the slightly lifted floorboard under the cupboard where they make their entrance into the main house. I should have taken a closer picture of that bed - it's a moisturizer-thingy from a medicine bottle... and absolutely perfect for a little bed! It has flat, crimped ends and a "puffed" middle. I glued one end up to the wall for a headboard, and the other end down to the floor for the base. Then I spotted it with purple and green paint. Perfect little micro-bed!

    Beginning the layout with the cigar box (courtesy of my Uncle Rolly). We cousins scolded him about his smoking habit, but we all wanted the boxes!

  20. Hey PA Folks! I will be doing the Lehigh Valley Show in less than a month so excited anyone been to this show? Anyone else going?
  21. Hi there, Just making a quick introduction to the wonderful team and fellow miniaturists here. I'm a 34year old female living in Sydney, Australia and have been madly in love with all things miniature since I was about 8 years old. I have built 6 houses so far but I have made most of these as gifts for my nieces and godchildren, to try to introduce them to this wonderful hobby while they are young. I am expecting my first child in 12 weeks, so I am trying to complete a build I have been working on for a nieces birthday around the same time. I really hope I can finish it in time, (without rushing too much and taking short-cuts) as I imagine once our baby arrives, my miniatures will be on hold for awhile. Anyway, that's pretty much it from me for now... Looking forward to learning and making friendships through this forum, so nice to be part of this community. Mini hugs to all, Kim xxx
