Tiny things

When my ex-sister-in-law died a couple years ago, my youngest niece took her miniature house. She said she has some nice memories about her mom and working on that house.

Last year she started remodeling it. It needed it. It was in pretty bad shape. I've put together several miniature houses so she hit me up for tips and ideas. I obliged :-) She's doing a fabulous job too. She has a decorating flair and she's good with power tools! She's even given her journey it's own Instagram page and named her house, 918 Victoria Lane. You can find it on IG at victoria.lane.mini  

Occasionally she'll send me a text with a picture of some miniature food and say, Hi Aunt Cindy, isn't this sooooo cute?! I can't say no, so I'll make it for her. So far she's gotten this;

With more requests backed up. It's fun. I like doing it. 

Anyway, it's really made me want to do the keeper house I still have in a box in my craft room. It's 3 stories with a shop on the bottom. It's so awesome! I've had it for about 15 years!!! I don't even know why I haven't put it together. I guess it's a little intimidating.  And it can be expensive. But I even go to the Miniature House Museum's attic sale whenever they have it and but all sorts of cute little tiny things for a fraction of the cost! I really just need to jump in though. I love tiny things. I love miniature houses! 

It's hard to get started on things sometimes.
