New Project - 1:48" Cottage

Yes, I know - there are still pending projects to be completed, but I couldn't resist making a little cottage for a few plastic 1:48" furniture pieces I have at hand. This will be my first 2013 work.

It's funny, when I first started this hobby one of the advantages was that minis don't require much space.
Now they take up too much space, so I went on to half scales and now to a quarter scale......next we shall have to move out and let the minis stay.




The kitchen table is 1:12" .

Here the fun begins.  I intend to make it a two stories cottage.  I'll keep posting about my progress.

Meanwhile here are some photos of gorgeous glass art by a master glass artist, Robert Mickelsen.  I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I did.









Blessings to all

  2. Hi Drora! It´s the same here: I also use to tell friends that making minis is a great hobby as it doesnt require much space, but when they come here again after a while they are always surprised how much space is already occupied again ! This little cottage is a fun project and the furniture is very beautiful, too! But soooo tiny, wow! The glass objects are pieces of art, I especially like the white ones. Thanks for showing! Have a wonderful week! Hugs, Sandra

  7. Your 1:48 cottage project looks really fun, Drora! I'm excited to watch your progress. I know what you mean about miniatures taking up a lot of space. I just keep cleaning out things, but then I buy or make more! :-) Have a great rest of the week! xo Jennifer

  17. You are so absolutely right, it takes up so much space. I also have my challenges in finding a place for everything. It's not very big your new project. Exciting. It must be difficult to work in such a small scala. Looking forward to see more.

  21. This is one of the things I really like about blogging... learning that others have exactly the same problems like me - I'm not alone! Yay! (LOL) I'm curious how you're smallsize house will turn out - but one thing is for sure, it will become gorgeous for two reasons: 1. What you've shown so far is lovely and 2. you'll be doing it. And thank you for sharing this amazing glass art, this was breathtaking.

    Greetings

  22. Привет!
    Да, наше хобби хоть и миниатюрное, но занимает очень много места!:):):)
    Жду с нетерпением продолжение строительства Вашего маленького дома! Уже есть такая замечательная мебель.
    Я всегда восхищалась искусством литья из стекла!
    Я с удовольствием посмотрела эти прекрасные работы!

  24. I love your new project! I like smaller scales so much! So beautiful pictures about glass art, thanks for sharing us!! Hugs

  25. hahahahaha, Drora, you made me laugh.Now I cannot imagine moving to another place without considering whether it will be enough to fit my minis. I actually thought of leaving the big space for minis while I live in a much smaller one :):).

    My current project is a 1:48 house that I am hoping can pass off for a small 1:12 shed.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the glass art . Thank you for sharing!
