On With The Show!

Here are a few photos I took at the Atlanta Miniature Show. Enjoy!


The Atlanta Miniature Society created three of these gorgeous Gypsy Caravans. This one was my favorite! Just look at all of the pretty details!


This was a raffle prize from a previous show. Exhibited by Nancy Songster. I love these little dolls!


Here is the interior of an Americana shop created by Nancy Van Horn.


This is the exterior of her shop.


Nancy also made this beautiful tropical bedroom in quarter scale. I love it!


There were so many wonderful things to see! I will definitely attend the next show and have a bigger budget to spend.

I am also going to apply for a membership in NAME. I would love to be a part of this group of miniaturists. It still seems strange to call myself a "miniaturist." I guess after three+ years that's okay now? :D

Hope you have a great day!

Fifty Cents Over Budget

Sharyn and I had a great day at the Atlanta Miniature Show! I bought just a few things on my small budget. I could have spent a LOT more!

I found the wallpaper I was looking for at Karen Benson's table, The Quarter Source.



I went back to her table three times! Karen was so sweet and SO helpful. I love this bedroom set.


I met Barbara Sabia and drooled over her gorgeous stained glass pieces. They are so delicate and so perfectly made. I hope to take one of her classes someday.


Martha Watkins (from Shellville Ga - no website) gave me a quick lesson in wigging and making curls from mohair. I bought three of her darling kits that were only 50 cents each. Her dolls were so beautiful. I can't believe I forgot to take photos of them!


Here are some other little things I bought.


The hand thrown pottery was made by Alex Melklejohn. His table was the first one inside the show. I could have spent my entire budget right there. I only bought four, but wanted a lot more!


Tomorrow I'll show you some of the room boxes and displays from the show. I was really impressed by the Gypsy Caravans made by the Atlanta Miniature Club!

Hope you have a beautiful day!
