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!

Giveaway

In celebration of reaching 50 followers I want to give something back. Well it's a little late, but as they say, better late ...

I actually have two prizes on offer, so just choose if you would prefer the candelabra or the fruit platter. Now you probably know I haven't been making miniatures for long so please don't expect these to be totally perfect, they're not.

The candelabra is brass and other metal, primed and painted with hobby products especially produced for metal applications. It is a pewter colour and is designed and made by me. The 'candles' are part of the base, I painted them to look like candles but if you prefer, I can remove the spikes so you could place real (very tiny) candles on instead. The fruit is made from Super Sculpy and I hand-painted the finish, then sealed it with varnish.

If you would like to win either, please leave a comment here and indicate what your choice would be, and follow my blog. I will draw the two winners Friday week. Good luck!

P.S. Sorry, the photo isn't the best, I was in a hurry to catch the last glimmer of sun.
