Book Shop Memories - Puzzle Miniature

Image
 I have not changed my mind about these. No effort, finished in a couple of hours, not interesting. One word. BORING!

Chinese Market Street

 And finished. I can't remember how many extra micro LEDs I added, 5 or 6 maybe. I also cut out the front so the windows would actually be windows and not just pretence. I really enjoyed this one despite all the fiddly, tiny bits.

I couldn't resist

I know, I know, but I just couldn't resist. But I had to wait a few weeks before the price dropped drastically.   

New Chest of Drawers

 Over the months I have invested in so many tools and other equipment that I needed a place to store it. Something narrow enough to fit between the desk and the TV stand and most importantly, it can't cost an arm and a leg. The first place I always check is IKEA. And I found something. Let me introduce you to *fanfares* Helmer Perfect size, easy to assemble, enough space for all the tools. I couldn't have found anything better.

WIP Chinese Street

 This is one half of the Chinese street.  I added quite a few extras micro LEDs on this one as it only has 1 ceiling light.

Music Stage Miniature

Have you ever stringed a tiny guitar? I have. It was a birthday gift for my husband. Really cute I have to say.  

Living Room with Pergola Miniature

Image
This one took longer than expected. The floor lamp was broken. Thankfully all the pieces were in the bag. It’s not perfectly straight but it looks ok. Also if you want to make these miniatures I recommend getting a set of acrylic markers. I was able to paint over the cracks. Also they work great to touch up stuff or paint over shiny wires. The hanging seat was a right royal pain in the arse. I took the Raffia ribbons apart and wrapped it around the joints. And I covered the wires along the pergola with green ones I had left over from a previous set. The hanging seat has a different back because I measured it wrong. I actually like it better that way. So now just the dust covers.
