#Halloween: Addams Family #Dollhouse

This is a cool project! Myself, I prefer tours without all the explanations so I listen without sound, but she does explain how she's planning the house. Here's the YouTube link to one of the tours.

Minis in New Movie Downsizing

This looks very cool! Imagine being able to live in - and afford that mansion! There has to be a catch, of course... But some cool minis and camera tricks here.

The Best Time of Year! Halloween Minis!

Oh it's that time of year! Time to see what new stuff is around.

Amazingly Hobby Lobby and Michael's all have Halloween, Fall and Christmas stuff out already. Get them all at once. haa!

I love mini Halloween stuff, though. Michaels had their Spooky Town stuff out with a few new figures.

But the mini section caught my eye. Lots of fun stuff to choose from so I'll be making many trips!!

Here's just a few I got today. Love the skellie animals!!




Dollar Tree also had some new LED lights - these look like fiber optics in a thin plastic tube. Pretty cool. I can see these around a house or for trim. Use two AA batteries. There is also a purple strand. And at only $1, who's complaining?

Mini Lp's! Record Store Project!


Finally got a "little" something done for the Record Store Project! (See previous pics.)

Yes, little. Making record albums - LP covers. This is only a  "small" start considering how many I'll need. ha! But they're pretty cool, huh?

Oh, only 100 or so to go. haaaaaa! Who's counting? (Well, not yet.)

Decorated Miniature Glass House in Shabby Chic

Here's the finished glass house, for now. I really love the shape of this structure! Nice way to display some items that'll eventually go into a full roombox or house. (Previous photos)

The back wall is just a piece of mat board covered with scrapbook paper. Loved this print! The floor is the tweed side of a piece of picture frame mat board. I probably should add a pretty throw rug, too.


Every place needs a dog, even in mini!



The interesting chair and sofa were actually sold as Christmas ornaments! 
(Resin from Hobby Lobby.)





My friend, Kitty, made the great drink and cake.
