Wishing all my readers, friends and mini makers a fantastic 2016.   I've been staring at a glut of project photos and trying to will myself to edit them and write posts. But, to bypass the guilt of ignoring the photos, I've been attacking my stash of kits!   2016 will be the year I finish Miss Kitty&#…

Merry Christmas! Please feel free to keep reading, but I will be off resting in anticipation of putting my hand up the turkey's butt and filling it with stuffing! Making decoration boxes and "decorations" to fill them were probably my most time consuming project this season.  Next year wi…

Tis Christmas Eve! Its not yet dark but the children are excited for Santa.  They are reading books with their parents.  A plate of cookies and some milk are left out, hoping Santa will take a bite as he stops by to leave their gifts. Where To Buy Pillows - Tremeers Treasures Milk, white…

This is my Christmas social tea and treats get together.  The ladies....well, they like to eat!  I consider myself a connoisseur of ebay polymer clay goods....those who don't create, know where to buy!  I was particularly lucky to score the cupcakes by Fran's Miniatures on ebay early in November.…

There isn't snow here....as I write this.  In fact, its like a sad grey fall day on continuous loop.  Very blah and uninspiring.  So, I made some "snow" and can enjoy it this way instead of having to shovel it! My room box was about 80% finished when I took these pictures.  It's now comp…

I kinda caved in early December.  I had a pile of Christmas minis to make and I said, no more!  Then I saw this cute advent calendar kit from Jean Day Miniatures and I bought it....and a few other things to make the postage worthwhile (right??). I like my Lindt advent calendar.  Miss Kitty has the one I made h…

Baking away! Well, for a few years now I haven't done any real Christmas baking.  Miss Kitty conned me into baking this year because she is in love with cooking.  And how can you say no to a toddler that wants to learn to cook and bake? Well, you can't.  We made sugar cookies for our neighbours.  She had s…

Tis the season for some Christmas cheer! Things I am recently thankful for: being 99% done with potty training, being done with my christmas mini making, seeing Christmas through a 2 1/2 year olds eyes! I tinkered with the blog layout and designed new buttons. I like it! Whatcha think? Where to…

Sure the tree ain't decorated. Sure not much else is done. But this family doesn't care. It's gift wrapping time! Wrapping up presents. Shipping some abroad with FedEx. Apparently they will be paying expedited shipping since they are cutting it close. Making Wrapping Paper Rolls …

This is it! The last post of The Half Scale Saga! Let me tell you its nice to not only be physically done with a project but also done writing about it....and trying to keep track of what part of the saga I am writing about. I had a lot of fun decorating this room.  Filling in a room is always more fun then buil…
