Hello from Newfoundland!

Recommended Posts

I've always had an interest in miniature things -- they are so darn cute! 

Now that I'm retired, and can afford to indulge in the hobby.

I've wanted to find a hobby I could do with one hand, without anyone having to help me. Having had a stroke,  3 years ago, I've not been able to do much on my own. Right side paralyzed (thankfully I'm left handed).

I'm not really interested in doing a dollhouse, I'd rather do room displays. I want to do a room in a display box, hanging it on the wall. Different ideas for different rooms -- garden, doctors office, grocery store, etc.

I'm hoping to get Input from you, guidance, etc.

Thanks for letting me join!

Hi Barbara, and welcome to the forum! We're long on experience here, and you'll find many ready to share tips and insights. All you have to do is ask. :)  What's really nice about having many responses is that you'll get more than one way to solve a problem and can choose what works best for you. There's not just one way to accomplish our goals. Keep in mind my personal mantra: smoke and mirrors. It doesn't have to be real to look realistic.

You have so many ideas -- what will you do first?

Welcome to the little family, Barbara.  This is a good hobby to do with physical challenges, because it puts you in The Zone and you can timelessly do whatever you want.  I love your ideas for vignettes.

Thank you all for the nice welcome!  First of all, I go by Benni. The only reason I gave my given name is because I thought it was for legal issues.  Please call me Benni. 

I'm going to have many questions. I'll post them in a new post later. :)
