wenlaine Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I know there aren't many people in Ontario, Canada on the forum but I wanted to put it out there if anyone might be interested. I'm starting up a miniaturist's club for Saturday's. It can be either bi monthly, monthly or weekly and it will be during the day. The starting date hasn't been set yet but I'd like it to start in May. This will be an informal gathering of people who like to make their own items for dollhouses and don't mind sharing ideas. Please feel free to PM me if you'd like to know more or if you have any suggestions that might help me get this started. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butlerestates Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 How many people on here are NAME members? Is it something I should do? There really are not any groups in my area that I could find and I am wondering if joining would be worth the money? Any opinions?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintedlady Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 We are a club in Durango Colorado - that's in the SW corner of this beautiful state. I started the Four Corners Miniatures Club 2 years ago and we now have 7 members. Check out our website www.4cornersminis.com and let me know if you live out this way. We'd love to meet you!!

Sherry Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 There is one in Lubbock, Texas. I didn't know about it until they had a miniatures show, but we went to it even though I was miserably sick with the flu! I'm sure the fact that sweat was rolling down my face and I was constantly coughing didn't make any of them interested in talking to me! :xmas_tree: I found some wonderful things to buy for my house though! Anyway, I don't know where and when they meet or how to get in touch with them. I'm afraid my work schedule would make it hard for me to attend anyway...that's why I love these online groups. I've learned so much, seen so many pretty things and met so many great people this way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brezavaqt Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Well...the only one I saw, the meeting spot was kind of close to me (about a 30 minute drive)...but like Wolfie said, THIS IS THE BEST CLUB EVER!! Bre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeninky Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 I hope that you decide to check out the RL life club in person! You can have the best of both worlds and come back and share with us what you learned how to make... hehehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if you hear about another miniature show there, might be able to drive the 100 miles to get there for it. We don't have any miniature clubs around here that I know of, might be fun to start one. Can any one to tell me what steps they took to start one. Julie C.

New Day Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 How many people on here are NAME members? Is it something I should do? There really are not any groups in my area that I could find and I am wondering if joining would be worth the money? Any opinions?? Rebecca, I just saw your question, as I was coming here to say how glad I am that I joined N.A.M.E.! I recently joined our local N.A.M.E. club called Virginia Miniature Enthusiasts, and as such needed to join the national organization. I thought of it just as something I had to do to join the local club, but it is great and well worth the $, I think. A few days after I joined online, I received a packet in the mail with a pin, certificate, membership card and a few pages of info about N.A.M.E. Then I read about the online region, so I joined that. It took a few days to get the password, as it is handled by volunteers. So, if you join, just be patient with that part, it's not instantaneous. I have spent a lot of time exploring the site today and it looks really nice! Lots of projects and workshops. Most free, but some really involved ones require a fee. Maybe it's just me, but the projects are GREAT! So many of them are things that I have been thinking about trying to make lately, and here they are with pictures, instructions, templates, etc. There is also a forum, swaps, a chat room, and a yahoo group that you can join once you are a member. I just signed up for that and am waiting for it to go through, so I can't say how that is, yet. I'm sure there is more, but I haven't been through the whole site. Plus, there is the bi-monthly gazette, which I look forward to reading. So yes, to me the $35 is well worth it. I am really glad that I joined! Oh, and if anyone from this area had checked into Virginia Miniature Enthusiasts in the past, but found membership closed, it is now open! I have only been to a few meetings, but it has been fun. I can't get over the talent of some of the people there, and I hope some of it rubs off on me! There's so much I could learn! Well, that's my review.... ETA - Their forum is very small and doesn't seem to be used much, not at all like here. But still, the rest of the stuff I have found there is great.
