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 ...

 

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

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.

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.

process

Now I have made windows and higher walls. Tomorrow I´ll start makeing the furniture and wallpapers =) this is fun =)

My first 1:48 scale house

This is my new project. A house in 1:48 scale. I just got the walls done and now I´ll start cutting out doors and windows. To be continued =)

bed and lamp

I have made a bed today. But I have to buy some dishsponges and do the matress. I also made the lamp.
As you can see- I don´t have that many pictures to hang on the wall, so as you can see there are the same pictures in many scenes =)

recent projects

 

I have been able to do much miniature work lately. I becomes a train that can not be stopped once I get started. I's fun that everything has gone so smoothly, but now I notice how tired I get of crafting. It's probably the other way around for many, they do it to relax. Of course, it can be relaxing for me too but it takes a lot of energy. But it's nice to have done some things that I'm going to sell at the fair.

These are some of my recent projects. I have made a table, chair. lights, a canvas, and a bench. Mostly I do things inspired by pictures of things or real furniture. However, the table, bench and chair are my own designs =) All of a sudden I got an idea how I wanted a chair, but has never made a chair before so I had to look on the internet how I would do it. This is made of matboard because it´s a test, but then I'll do it in wood. a little bigger, I think that it must be. I´m going to to make a lot of different kinds of lights later. It will be fun!

room and "real tv"

I bought the cardboard to make shelves for the fair, but it was the beginning of a house instead =) I was looking for inspiration and found this "house". I was going to see if I can build one myself =) so it became finnished yesterday. Then I found more stuff that this man has done and was inspired to do a "real TV".
Oh how happy you can be when you see the miniatures come to life =)
It is far from complete but I just wanted to show you in the process =) It was a bit hard to film with the webcam but you can see a little bit at least =) 
I'll show more pictures later when it's done!

Oh my!

Oh my! I ended up on this page today and every little thing makes me totally amazed! Everything are so wonderful! I just wanted to share with you what I found, perhaps you will be as inspired as me =)
Just take a look at the pastamachine and the office lamp!! =)

Mini Lundby house

I'm so happy!
I finished this Lundby house today, that should be in a 1:12 house.
I put up pictures of the facebook group for miniaturister that I'm in, and became completely inundated with comments about the house =) I'm so touched =)
Because there were so many people like it, Im considering making one to which I can sell. Maybe a particular style or if any one is interested, maybe customized.

But I dont know what I would be able to charge for it ...
What would you pay for such a house?

Let there be light!

I've done a few miniatures lately, but not put out on the blog. I will try to post some of the things I've done. I have finally bought things so that there can be lights in my  rooms.
I'm into lamp design in real size so it will be so fun to do some in miniature too =)
Here are two lamps that I´ve made:

 

This is a christmas star that I made last year for my Lundby house:

Mini Converse Shoes

I have not blogged for a long time now. I made some miniatures, but have not managed to post any pictures yet. Last night I finished a pair of shoes. I have thought about making shoes for a long time, but it's so hard to do high-heeled shoes.
So I thought I would start by making converse shoes instead.
This is the result =)
