A Mini Garden

As if I could not do something mini in the garden, right?  Oh Ebay, you tempted me and I caved.  Miss Kitty has become an avid gardener.  Thank you Peppa Pig and your gardening with Grandpa Pig episode (that we have watched a million times).  She has her shovels, her garden tools carrying bag and her Hello Kitt…

Buried Under The Covers Is Where I Will Stay

Bed building phobia squashed (woo hoo).  Miss Kitty's self potty training underway (check).  Garden raked, lawn fertilized and front garden dug up (check), back garden soil 50% turned (check).  Ok, now back to mini making and blogging! As you may recall I purchased the Ikea "Sy" sewing machi…

Maybe use the rug to make a diaper for Elmo. This would not be a long term solution. I cracked out the saw and the Dremel. Done! Les…

Fixing A Hole In The Ocean

Mini people face death via the hole in the floor Dear Melissa and Doug,  Why did you put the stairs in the middle of the floor? And why did you make such a HUGE hole on top of it? The giant stair opening never seemed an issue until I decided to make this a real dollhouse. When you have a giant opening for…
