Don’t miss the latest, spook-tacular issue of DollsHouse & Miniature Scene!

I’m so excited to share that I’ve had the pleasure of being featured in the latest issue of DollsHouse & Miniature Scene! My Halloween roombox from last year, the Hag’s Hearth, was beautifully profiled by Sadie Brown, along with some other fa-boo-lous Halloween miniatures.

This project in particular was a true labor of love, and I’m beyond honored to know that it’s being shared with other miniature lovers. Once again, I’d like to thank Sadie for the amazing feature, and if you’re not yet subscribed to DHMS, what are you waiting for?!

Happy National Dog Day

Latest Work / August 26, 2021 August 26, 2021

In honor of National Dog Day, I thought it was only fair to create a cute scene for my collection of miniature dogs! Sadly, it’s not as robust as my cat collection, but I’m working on it! My little dachshund is from Literature in Miniature, and my golden retrievers are by Ines Angelone. Unfortunately, I don’t know the artist for the dalmatian.

I jumped at the chance to make some iconic dog toys of my own to go with the fabulous Kong and red bone toys from A. Smith Arts! My favorite would have to be my needle felted Loofa dog toy because my dog Logan had one when he was a puppy! I also needle felted the tennis ball.

Happy International Cat Day

Latest Work / August 8, 2021 August 8, 2021

As someone who wears her “Crazy Cat Lady” title as a badge of honor (does four cats qualify you for that title?), I’ve also been collecting miniature cats and kittens over the past couple of years. When I saw that International Cat Day was coming up, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to showcase my beautiful felines by JMDS Miniatures (Juan Manuel Diaz Solis) AND make some fun little kitty accessories!

The scene wouldn’t be complete without the cat scratcher and toy balls by A. Smith Arts, the cat litter box and scoop by Shepherd Miniatures, and the Chewy printable boxes by Mojo World!
