Hi and welcome to my blog. I hope you like my new look, I needed a change from black. Here you can share my miniature endeavours, perhaps be inspired by some of my photographs taken in France and of 'real world' treasures that can be made in miniature. My love of parterre-style gardens and study of horticulture made my decision for the theme of my little shop an easy one. I just hope I can successfully interpret my ideas in 1/12th scale!

National Cat Day



It is National Cat Day in Australia so I thought another pic of Lucy would be appropriate. Turns out she is quite compliant to modelling hats, I wonder what else might suit her, will have to explore further.

Also, my latest furniture, this settee and chair are upholstered in silk, with an Aubusson-like print on the back panel. I mixed the fabrics around for an informal look, what do you think?





Hope you are all having a happy and creative week.
A bientot!

  13. Margaret, your country French suite is a real Knockout! I love pink and I love the delicate mix of fresh and feminine french prints. The addition of that pretty ruffled band of skirting on each piece is simply.... the cat's meow! :D
    A belated Happy Cat ( in the hat ) Day! :D
    purrrrrrrrr
