I have been making modern miniature furniture for the past 25 years (I was one of the first to specialise in modern miniatures) and our company, ELF Miniatures, has clients all over the world.  Yet we regularly get emails from people who have only just discovered our website....so I thought it might be an idea to share our URL for anyone who isn't familiar with what we do, but is interested in modern minis.  You can find us here http://www.elfminiatures.co.uk/.  I do custom orders, but also produce loads of kits, which are very popular too.  We feature lots of our clients' photos of their finished rooms, some with our custom work, others with rooms they've created with our kits, so there's plenty to inspire as well! I've attached here just a couple of things we do which are very popular

ohmygosh I LOVE ELF miniatures!!   :D 

Thank you!  I'm always trying to create new things, but I'm often so busy I struggle to find the time!  I'm always open to new ideas too - many of the pieces that we have on our site were originally requests from clients - like the popular Hot tub for example.  So if you're looking for something and can't find it, you can always ask!

And just to point out--ELF doesn't just do 1:12.  They also do 1:24, 1:6, and 1:16, for those of us who build in other scales!

I do these other scales, but don't ask me to do 1:48 - way too small!!

I just placed a substantial order which stated US$ In the shopping cart but was charged the stated amount in British pounds which resulted in a substantial  increase in cost. Guess I’ll have to follow up with customer service for clarification.

Hi Sable, I've just replied to you personally from our email account, explaining that there is a technical issue with the converter (I only discovered this when I checked following your email). The tech people are sorting it out now, but of course, I totally understand if you want to cancel - we can refund you straight away.

Thanks Elizabeth, I haven’t received the new email but I would like to continue to process and ship the order.

Hi Jeannine,  Our UK system must seem complicated!  Small companies (like ours) don't have to register for Sales Tax, so we don't add tax to our own products, so there's nothing to take off.  Other larger companies DO have to register for Sales Tax, and therefore add tax to products sold in the UK, and this can then be taken off if it goes to the US (or anyway out of the UK/EU area).  It is slightly more complicated than this (for the things we purchase wholesale - that is things we don't make ourselves - tax is included, but because WE don't add it, we can't take it off!)  So, in answer to your question, no we don't take any tax off overseas orders.  HOpe that makes sense!

Thank you Elizabeth! My package arrived in Florida yesterday. So thrilled with the quality of your products and the fast delivery. I highly recommend Elf Miniatures to all of my Greenleaf friends.

Thank you!  Glad everything arrived safe and sound, especially after the initial problems.

OOh hello Elizabeth! I found out about ELF miniatures from the lovely Marilyn O. who highly recommends youI loved the cupboards you custom designed for her Dalton house

Hi WestPaces,  thank you!  I've done lots of things for Marilyn - I think she's blogged about most of them!  She did a replica of the shop from the film Chocolat and I made the kits for the cupboards in that.  I've also done several kitchens for her too and a workspace.  Not sure I can remember all of them!

They still have a contact form and email listed on their site: https://www.elfminiatures.co.uk/CONTACT+US+PT13TXhBRE14b0RkdVZHZHU5Mlk

If you don't hear back, the website does say that they aren't responding to all emails right now, but that they'll be back once the site has been migrated to a new service.
