Miniature child-doll's stroller

Hello my lovely mini friends,

As always I’ve been bust making prams, I wish you could see them in real life because I just don’t think pictures do them justice at all.  I had a fun order (that I’ve pictured below) and it was to make this little 1/12^th scale child-doll’s toy stroller.  I scaled down to approximately half the size of a standard 1/12^th scale pushchair so I guess it would pass as 1/24^th scale.  It is meant to look like a child’s stroller though without as much ‘fuss’ as an adult pushchair would have and I think it does look child-like.  It’s still very detailed and  I’m pleased with it, if I get any time I may make a couple more. 

Thank you for all your lovely comments; I love to hear what you think of my mini creations, it spurs e on when I’m having one of those no-motivation-moments lol.  I have been toying with the idea of running some classes to show people how I make my prams; I thought I would provide the materials and perhaps have a class of around 10 or 12.  I also thought about making some kits… I am not sure how much these would cost to roll out though, still just a thought.

Well I’m planning a little holiday soon, just five days in Portugal, I like it there, it seems fairly laid back and generally has a relaxed feel to the place and with my crazy life relaxing is very much needed. I’ve not even thought about what clothes I’ll need or anything yet, I expect I’ll just rush-pack the day before knowing me lol. 

I was wondering if anyone has ever wanted something in miniature that they could not find anywhere?  I’m looking for new ideas I guess… I always like to make new and interesting things.  I am going to make some modern furniture closer to the end of the year but I’m booked up till August so it won’t be till after then.

Well, I better get back to it, got some babies to sculpt and more prams to make.

Talk soon!

Purple Pram

Hello again my lovely mini friends,

As always I am very busy, I have a rush of orders, some of them quite large, which is lovely and I get to make some cute pink girly nursery minis so I am very happy.  I have had lots on of late including some not so happy news as we did have a death in the family so of course this slightly put me back on a few of my orders.  I do wish I could be cloned because that way one of me could attend to all the pressing family matters while the other could simply make minis for all you lovely people out there.  I have got several of my own fun projects on the go, but some have been put on hold for the time being as I just don’t have enough hours in the day.  My caravan is going to be sat there awaiting its interior design for a little longer and my twin prams and very modern up to the second pushchair is also on hold atm while I get through orders but I do have this purple pram I have just completed for one of my lovely customers to show you.  This is a reclining pushchair with moving footrest, matching apron and bag, shopping tray, shaped handle, moving hood, moving wheels, full harness, padded seat, and detachable play tray with removable sippy cup.  My customer chose the colours and I think she made a great choice as they work really well together.  Hope you like the pictures.  Now I’m off to make a tiny pushchair, a larger 1/9^th scale pushchair, a couple of prams and lots of girly baby things :)

Have lots of fun whatever you are doing and remember it is national no housework day so sit down, have a cuppa and don’t dare touch that washing up!!  Lol

Big mini hugs

This pic shows you just how teeny this pram is!

The winner...

Hello there… well I must start with an apology because yesterday I found that my silly web email address had gone down and has possibly been down for the last two weeks or so, so if you have tried to contact me please use this address instead gill.bloor@hotmail.co.uk and resend.  Had the technicians working on it all night but so far there’s still no action so I’m not a happy bunny :(

Right on to the draw at long last.  I noted that my other draw for the caravan is also due so I’ll do that next week and post the winner on the Monday to give everyone who has not yet entered some time to do so. 

Now for the draw… big drum roll…. And the winner is

Fabiola

Congratulations Faby, be sure to msg me with your address and I will forward your minis to you very soon.  Well done!

Well I’ve a busy day ahead so I’m off to make prams, got some new models to scale down so lots of research today I think.  Thank you to everyone who entered and thanks for all the lovely comments you leave me, I do so enjoy reading them. 

Talk soon

Shabby Chic

Hello my lovely mini friends…

Well we've reached 200 so I’ll be drawing the winner of my giveaway this weekend and I’ll let you know the winner on Monday, so still a little time to enter if you haven’t already :)

Aside from working on dolls, prams and my caravan I've been doing a little shabby chic project, everything is up for sale on my shop page and if you need to know how much postage is to your country or the cost of combined postage just message me Enquiries@teenytinythings.co.uk

I can never decide on colours and whenever I paint something for myself it’s almost guaranteed that I repaint it several times so when making the shabby chic furniture below I decided to just take three of everything and paint them all different colours to see which one I might choose when I do up my shabby house (yes another project in the making lol).

Everything is displayed in the same room corner which has a wooden floor, wood panelling and yellow wallpaper with pink roses on it.  I made several room corners which all fit next to each other or stack and I decorated each one differently. 

Well here are the pictures… 

The room corner...

The full rooms...

The dressers...

The chairs...

The tables...

The accessories...

Well see you all on Monday - when I give you the winner of the TTT draw.
