We have also been playing with miniatures. there are a ton of tutorials for creating many things and DH and i have really been having fun with bread dough too(which air dries like a clay).
We made these mini bottles.
this little lamp is made of beads and things from around the house.
DH & i really had fun with making this mini bug zapper!!
This bamboo is as easy as wooden skewers and wire!
Here is my mini floor lamp!! lol
DH had fun with this little mini child's toy sled! LOL

The potato bag is printed from the web and created and the potatoes are from bread dough.

Good Morning Shirley:)
Thank you so much for coming by to collect me for the journey through your trip to the mines and the adventure of creating miniatures.:) I LOVE what you and hubby are making for your doll house.How fun!!Do you use a magnifying glass when making your creations? I would definitely need one.LOL Oh and smaller fingers too.hehe I love your floor lamp.I bet it is really fun to figure out what to use to make your pretties.:) Hope you aren't gonna make any little bugs to get zapped in your mini zapper.LOL How big is your dollhouse gonna be?
I use to do bread dough stuff too..but it has been a longggg time.I actually made it look like bread and put it in a basket..until it molded.LOL Did I do something wrong? I used a ton of salt in it.:) I even varnished it so it would shine.It was fun while it lasted...but dusty bread isn't very appealing.hehe
Hope you enjoyed your weekend.Thanks for taking us through your trip to the mines.Love the pics your DH took too.:)
Huge hugs,
Valinda
I can't believe the miniatures! The baby bear must be about the size of a bean!!! Everything's so TEENY! I had no idea bread dough could be used for that.
I love your bargains -- that BIRDCAGE is going to be TOO FUN and I am betting it will turn out to be one of your most fave decorations!
Good morning Shirley.:)
Just stopped in to let you know that the blog I sent you to about the gems..well...I REALLY don't believe in the powers of the stones.LOL But you can grab the pics and the pages and make your own word art etc. I got to reading some of that stuff and thought..what the hey?LOL
Hugs,
Valinda
