Mounts Heads, Bear rug and Cat



Hello  and greetings from our farm!*grin*
It is a cold day today.... for the first time this winter, is calling for snow this afternoon. Needless to say , my children are very hopeful!grin

Here I share with you, few of my newly minis. As I said before , some of them will be listed on my etsy  store, so if you would like to purchase, visit the store by clicking the link on the left tab.
The mounts are kudu, deer and elk.

My most fun  to take pictures was the bear rug. Why? well my daughter said ," momma lets pretend we are "sitting" on the rug."grin
We tried and I think with a little more practice, I may figure out how to do the perspective thing better. It was much fun and of course , My grand baby  is my very perfect model!!!*grin
Hope you enjoy too!!
Have a beautiful and blessed day!*smiles*

Marley & Scrooge- A Christmas Carol

Hello you!!*grin*

Wow... that is what I said when I was asked to make Marley and Scrooge from the Classic A Christmas Carol.

If you want to read more , please click at my auction button to link to the ebay listings.
Thank you so much for stopping by and specially for leaving me a note. All bloggers know how much is a delight to readone's thoughts.

Moose Mount & French Bed

Hi~
I have been busy with many projects , as usual*grin*, but I was able to finish this 2 this week.
I normally get requests for bears and deer mounts , but I thought a moose mount is just a nice adn different mount to have in a miniature setting like a cabin, office ....
This is very small... only one inch lone and two inches from an antler to another...
I think is my best set of antler and I try a different way and I like it a lot. The markings on the antlers can bee seen better at naked eyes or with better photograph .... I am a lousy photographer..*grin*

I made this bed using my own miniature painting as part of the design.... this is not the actual painting but rather copy...... I would had painted and would take commission on painting furniture but because of its time consuming, it would cost much more than for what I am selling for.... I wanted to offer a pretty vintage looking aged bed that is One of a kind but yet at reasonable price therefore; I choose to do this way.
I should post some time this painting and the framed one.... I just took a quick picture to add to my listing at ebay to show where the bed was made from.....
Roses are my favorite flowers and when summer comes i will share with you my 8 years old bed of flowers as well of my roses.... I love them... I have several mature bushes that I am very proud of it.... Painting flowers , specially roses are definitely my favorite subject to paint.

Special tree ornament...the love of making tiny things

My dollhouse Christmas tree is almost ready . I am also working with my roombox. I wish I had more time to take pictures but honestly I do my best because time is all that counts for me. I am making *gazillions* of things at the same time but once in while I take my time, because I enjoy so much, and work on something slowly wondering how it will look like at the end.
This is my top of tree ornament. It is a replica of a Irish ornament. The top is brass that ,using a press saw , created a the *loops. the ball is a wood bead with 3 holes. The ball has 100% Australian gold that comes in a sheet. It is 99.9% pure gold. Then 3 holes and each one a *real* vintage swaroviski diamond, not the the ones we see on eBay . I removed this from an antique piece that was no longer good for me.
Now, I sure hope I will get all done before Christmas so I Can show you my first room box. I have made changes and changes, that is normal to me, but all was very worth it.
I don't think I will have furniture ready but the the room will have a Christmas tree and few little things.
It is raining today ...I love this weather because is cold enough for my fire place to be on all day , plus a big pot of soup is almost done as I have 8 children to feed soon.......smiling and happy!
