I was also making some printables for a National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts (NAME) swap, so I shrunk some drawings of my daughter (a drawing of a dog and a drawing of a cat) and made little book covers. Those are 2 of the finished books (not that you can really see the cat one - which is a picture of a cat sitting on a mushroom - but I thought it was a cat with a tutu so the book title is "A Tutu for Cat." It's just as well as I could not have fit a title with "mushroom" on my mini book cover.) I was about to title the dog book "Spot," but luckily, I asked my daughter the name of the dog before I titled the book. The dog's name turned out to be Brownie, so the book is titled "Brownie".
I bought the dinosaur puzzle as a kit at the Chicago Tom Bishop Show and, following the seller's example, painted the dinosaur green. It's a real puzzle. My children love puzzles so I wanted miniature puzzles for the children's room.
The green bear on the rocking horse and the little rabbit cover book on the bookshelf are from Hannah of Hannahsminiatyrer.
I made the little Sandra Boynton book. The cat, the baby and the Winnie the Pooh books were all purchased on eBay. The crib is from my childhood dollhouse.
Wow! you are lucky to have furniture from your childhood to give the perfect touch!
ReplyDeleteYes, I wish I could fit my childhood dollhouse in our apartment, but it is just too big and so it remains at my mom's house. But I have some of the furniture to play with still :)
DeleteA cat in a tutu sounds far more believable than a cat sitting on a mushroom ;0P Really sweet mini toys =0)
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny and so true! But this is a quite a large mushroom (or maybe quite a mini cat) - artistic license!
DeleteWonderful drawings! I have been thinking of shrinking some of my daughters drawings too, and have in the dollhouse, it would be nice to keep my favourite ones in miniature too =)
ReplyDeleteThe puzzle looks great, I love when there are moveable parts even at a small puzzle like this =)
And how lovely to see that the little bear got such a nice home =)

Yes, the little bear is very much loved! I am very happy about shrinking my daughters' drawings and preserving some of her work in miniature - so I definitely think it's a good idea.
DeleteLovely books! And the scene is very adorable with all the beautiful details!
