ScotRail 43182 roars out of Arbroath past the now closed Kerr's Miniature Railway, leading the 1T26 Aberdeen to Glasgow QS service.
This year I was assigned to host our doll club meeting for September. I prepared these handmade gifts to give away to the other 7 members of the club. I had to make them when my baby took her nap during the day or late at night when she’s in bed. For a whole month, I scanned, took pics, photoshopped, prototyped, printed and assembled these paper miniatures. I only made the ones you see in the pictures, and had our club members make the doll boxes as a craft project for the meeting. All effort was worth it seeing how ecstatic our club members were upon seeing their gifts.
I got the idea from Rogier Corbeau’s work during the Barbie Convention. He created this really awesome store diorama for the silent auction which sold for $3,400! Thanks to Jim Taylor too for posting his work on facebook for me to oogle at.
The shelves were made by etsy seller Mihail.
*I do not have plans of selling these as I don't want to get in trouble with mattel, but once I find the time, I am considering uploading some of the graphics so you can make them yourselves.
As the Tiny Teddy Bear Mardi Gras Ball is restricted to members and guests, we were lucky to be allowed to take photographs through the open pavilion for historical purposes. All tiny teddies partied hardy but drank responsibly.
The tiny teddies are all 3 inches tall or less , and many of them collector handmade bears! SO fun to work with, and also very frustrating- just getting them to stand still for a photo is difficult!
(The tiny charcuterie board and scones were a gift from my dear friend, Christa- a perfectly grand surprize, just after I started working with miniatures! The wonderful King cakes were done for my by my nephew's wife, Sara! My sister gave me the tiny chandelier, which I totally adore! The miniature Mardi Gras float painting was done for me years ago by my dear friend, Mary Anne! I was SO excited to use it in the scene! The Mardi Gras throne for King Rex and Queen Snowy is a remarkable little miniature I got at an estate sale; I think it is "Bespaq." The tiny details historical Mardi Gras painting was done by my wonderful friend, Mary Anne! The tiny liquor bottles are less than an inch tall, and the glass bar is . . .
well, it's really a glass bar, or a bar of glass! Don't know where I got that but I have had it for many years! You will see many gorgeous Mardi Gras "baubles" in the scenes from my dear friend, Jesse! Take a look at the grand world he is creating with his amazing miniatures! www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/albums/72157715517132727/ He is SUCH magician with miniatures, who I love and admire. He is still teaching me SO much!)
The kitchen wagon fits perfectly in the lot reserved for the chair in the counter, if you tilt it's wheels the other way.
I was looking for this set by Epoch for quite a while until I finally got one. I also picked up some extra chairs because each table only comes with 1 chair. The set is pretty tiny, the chair backs are a little over 2 inches high. I don't know why I needed this set so much, in fact, I have another set on the way LOL

The idea here is to make real objects into fakes by using tilt-shift. If these cars & the truck look like matchbox toys, then I accomplished playing with your eyes. Tell me if I did well or I failed.

I took this picture in Cologne, Germany (please don't miss my 360 degrees
Panorama of Cologne). I've used the "tilt shift process" (selective focus) to
simulate a miniature scene... :) As always, thanks for watching!!

Miniature
A poem by Katie Gabrielle
Miniature You
Miniature We
People look funny
From Way Up High
Twist and Turn
The Camera Lens
Focus In
Focus about
Where the H*** did the Pilot go?
He leaped out fool
And he can't fly
Now he's a pancake
That fell from the sky
Don't cry for him
He added color to the scenery
Red Yellow Blue
And add a few screams
Drama Drama
Twist and Turn
Crash and Burn
It's fun being up here in the jet
When the miniature world
Looks tiny yet
Don't be dumb and open
That door
Because you won't
Land on a pillow
In the Miniature world
You'll be dead

The Miniature American Shepherd resembles a small Australian Shepherd. True herders in spite of their compact size, Minis are bright, self-motivated workers and endearingly loyal and lively companion dogs who have an affinity for horses.
The Mini American Shepherd is listed #30 on the AKC list of most popular dog breeds in 2021
