The winner of the giveaway is....

I used random.org to draw the winner for my giveaway. And the winner is:

Janice Servos

 

I have sent her an email telling her that she won, I hope she will like the stuff =) 

 

 

Fail!

I wanted to carve Mini-Me´s nostrils. First I tried with a knife, but then I wanted to try my multi-tool.

Hahaha it got stuck in her hair!! But always think positive; atleast she got a nice hair do ;)

Lego box (also added to the giveaway)

My son is going through a period when he´s just thinking of lego all the time. 
I promised to make a lego box in miniature for him yesterday before he went to sleep, and started immediately when he fell asleep. 
I took pictures of a box and measured all the dimensions and made all the images in the correct size on the computer. I had worked for a while and then I pushed some wrong button so that everything I had done disappeared. I was more and more tired, but I had promised my son, so I would keep my promise that it would be ready in the morning =)  
So I did everything over again, but was falling asleep all the time. But finally it was finished and I printed a few boxes and glued together one of them. Just when I had printed them out, there was something wrong with the image software again and it all disappeared before I could save the finished pictures. typically. but I was atleast smart and wrote out many at the same time before it shut down.

So I thought I'd add a lego box in the giveaway too =) I shall rewrite the giveaway post for now it's not just empty moving boxes that I give, but boxes with content =) each today I put in something new, so in the end it will probably be pretty much =)

Mini tape adding to the craft room and giveaway

Today I did a chair for the craft room, but I havnt made ​​up my mind how I feel about it yet, so I wait with posting it on the blog =)

 
But one thing I was very pleased with were tape rolls I did! They were so small and cute and it's so funny that you can really use the tape too! =) 

I'll put some in the giveaway I have right now. I'll add more stuff there, when I have done something I have a few extra of =)

Project right now: Craft room for Mini-Me

 

 Even before I got my Blythe doll, I started a little on a craft room. The idea is that I should do it like the way I would like to have it myself . So far I have made a desk, small clay packaging and wrappingpaper rolls. I'm thinking of using the shelf I did in 1:12 before, as storage, I think it would work well for yarn etc. I shall maybe repaint it either just white, or any other color.  

To be continued ...

 

Sooo many new readers =)

Hello!  

Recently, the number of readers has increased pretty much. It's really really fun to know that people are reading my blog and they seem to like it =)  

But I dont know if the increase is due to the pinterest links available or if it is because I started with Blythe and many from Facebook groups found the blog through the links on my photos. 
I dont know if many think it is fun to see my stuff that I do in 1: 6, or if maybe I should take a break from it and do some other scales for a while?
 
What do you like to see on my blog? Please write a little what you think!

Hugs to you all, I'm so glad you found my blog =) Take care!

Want some moving boxes? Giveaway!

As you can see, is Mini-Me now moved into her new apartment. 
Since she doesnt need the moving boxes anymore, she thought that one of the readers might want a few boxes. Mini-Me protects the environment and think it is important to reuse things. She  also sends some other things that she does not need anymore. Right now this is what you get:

• Moving (banana) boxes
• Tape rolls
• A lego box

(more will be added)

The things in this giveaway is in 1:6 scale.

Absolutely wonderful weather!

Mini-Me enjoying the sun and the vacation.  She has taken a break from decorating the apartment and are sunbathing and taking it easy out on the balcony. 

It´s a wonderful day!

Tomorrow I will have a giveaway =) So be sure to check that out!
Hugs to you all!

 

Moving in

Mini-Me moved in a while ago.  

Now, all her furniture and stuff arrived with the moving van.
She had some banana boxes and some furniture that she bring to the apartment.

They are quite heavy...

 DONE! 

At last she have everything in the apartment and can put hereself down for a while and take a breather.

Mini-Me

 

I decided to do a "mini-me". Since I never show pictures of me, you can see me in miniature instead =) I changed her hair and made similar glasses that I have. I have removed the makeup and sanded the face. She should get new makeup later.

Custumization on my blythe

Today I made very much with my new blythe that I received yesterday. I have opened her head and made a gaze correction, sleepy eyes and also changed her body. No wonder she became tired.

My blythe is finally here!

Now I've got my Blythe doll! (or that's two dolls but they are the same) One, I packed up but the other may be left in the plastic until I'll customize her.  
Here's what she looks like:

 

I thought they looked a little scary when they were wrapped in plastic with starring eyes but it felt better when I removed it ;)

It's really hot weather today but she doesnt have to be naked. Yesterday, I made a dress that fits quite well. I´ll redo it later and put some decorations on.

 


I'll get started right away and sandpaper her face and carv the mouth. I´ll post pictures of the process later =)

 

She looks a little bit like me, we have almost the same haircolor (its my hair to the left) =)
What do you think, should I customize her so that she looks like me, or should I change hair color on her?

Waiting for my Blythe

I´m still waiting for my Blythe doll, but I have started preparing until she comes.  
I've decided that I should do different environments with things that I love to do in 1/6 for her. 
I LOVE to move and come to a new place with new conditions of life and new adventures and challenges. Coming into a new home is very exciting, and to decorate it so that it is cozy.  
So now I have done lot of moving boxes for her and little things to be packed up later =) Then you can follow her new life in Sweden here on my blog =)
I have also started making a craft room for her. I can not wait until she's here!
Right now I'm doing a Chinese-Swedish dictionary so she can learn the language ;)

Oh, I forgot to mention, today I ordered a new balljointed body for her also. An

Azone Pure Neemo Flection Full Articulation =)

new shoes

I forgot to post the picture of the new shoes I´ve made. I put it on facebook but not here.
I´ve been makeing sneakers in clay before but now I tried the same pattern but with fabric and it worked this time =) so I did some in different colors. 3 pairs have been sold already =)
Today I have been watching a movie and cut more fabric for more shoes.
It's fun to do them because I have the opportunity to do them in so many different colors. I´m thinking of maybe put them up on my etsy.

first time makeing 1:6 miniatures

I´m so eager to do things for my new blythe doll that I have ordered, so I have started doing some stuff already.  
Barbie will be the model until my blythe arrive =) 
I've never done things in 1:6 scale before and do not really like that it is so large, it is easier to do things in a smaller scale, but some things should I do anyways, so I soon put up more things in the blog in scale 1:6

Blythe dolls =))

Oh I'm so happy! I dyed my hair today (pink) and when I sat at the computer again, I looked for cheap blythe dolls. I had not really thought about buying one now, but still, I checked around a bit.  
The first doll I found cost only $ 47! I was so excited and thought long and hard if I really should spend money on a doll this month .. And decided that YES I will =)  
So I didn´t just buy one doll, but TWO =) One of them I'll leave as it is, while the othe I will make new hair, new makeup, etc. for =) I'm sooo happy! I can hardly wait until I can start making clothes for it and other things. Here's how it looks (I dont get the dress):

1:12 embroidery silks

I had never seen Amber´s house blog before. but now I found it and found some great tutorials. So I made some embroidery silks from her tutorial.

A mini chair

A little bit too small. I will try to make one a little bit bigger to fit the kitchen in my 1:48 house.

Does anyone have a Blythe doll?

I would really really want a blythe doll but they are soo expensive =(
So I thought I can try searching for one here on my blog.

If any of you have a blythe doll that you want to sell at a cheap price / swap, I'd be sooo happy!
She doesnt need to look so fine, the hair may look anyhow. I can try to re-root her. I have longed for a doll a while. there is so much fun you can do with them. making clothes would be SO fun.  

So if you know someone who has an extra doll so please let me know =) 

Hugs!

I LOOOVE this scale!

I have never had so much fun doing miniatures! I LOVE the 1:48 scale =)
I have been focusing on one of the childrens room right now and have made a few stuff for that room.

I´ve been makeing some books. before I made books in 1:12 and they were so tiny and cute but look at this! I´m so amazed by this scale and how tiny it is, and you can still see what book it is =) It´s crazy =) the books are just a few millimeters.

Then I glued every one on the little shelves. Next time I will use some tweezers ;)

 

And the result of the shelves on the wall:

And this is the room so far. this is so fun!

Hugs to you all =)

more pictures =)

This is what happened with the house since last update =) 

I have added a photowall, made of photos of my son, my mom, me when I was a child and when I was pregnant, And pictures of a deer, a tree, a heart in the snow, and one where it sais GOD =)
Wery tiny but you can see it when you look close =) And I have also made a "box" that will be a fireplace =) Then I have made the kitchenisland and painted it, and started to think want kind of chairs I will have by the kitchen table. Picture of that comes later.
You can also se that I have made a roof now. And in the evening the people that lives there turn on the lights =)
Hugs to you all =)

Update again on the 1:48 house

How hard can it be to post photos next to each other on the blog?? I'm going crazy! I have tried to post pictures three times but it all goes wrong. I give up and they will be under each other then...
 
I finally got up the wallpaper and flooring in all rooms. It is so small so it's a little hard to take pictures of all the rooms. I have started doing some furniture. The kitchen is started and I have done a green child bed.
