Something New

 

I got a new two new room boxes to play with.

I cut this picture from a magazine.

And I picked up a few new play pretties from the dollar tree, including this clear drawer tray that I used as a shelf, erasers that look like books (a little large for my scale), and the the plastic form from some barbie dresses I got for the girls which I painted yellow (still needs another coat of paint).

And this little guy.

Sorry I haven't been around much lately.  Life keeps from the things I'd prefer to be doing sometimes.

New Minis

This is going to be a quick post but wanted to share with you that I got a chance to pick up some new minis that Michaels hobby shop now has and a couple from the Dollar General in their garden section.  I even found time to get to play with them.  Down below are some pictures of some scenes I put together.  Have you purchased any of the new Michaels minis?  How about the wooden couch?  I haven't figured out how I want to dress it up yet so if you've picked one up, I'd love to see some pictures of what you've done with it.

The bed is new.

The lamp and chair are new

New-ish art work

Toys, toys, so many toys!

miniature toys

I have so many mini toys!  I tried to put them all in one scene and still have so many that I could not find room for!

 What do you have a lot of in your collections?

Miniature room

I've got a mini block.  Usually I'll just play with my minis and am able to come up with a new fun idea or two but lately, just can't come up with anything.  Do you ever get stuck in a rut?  What do you do for inspiration?

It Has Been A Little Bit

 

Dollar Tree miniatures

I picked up these at a Dollar Tree and decided I could paint them and use them in my minis.

Dollar Tree Miniatures redo

As soon as I find my white paint pen, I'll add his name to the dog bowl.  I also included some new tables I made in the picture.  They are much like the ones I made with bobby pin legs but the legs wouldn't stay on so I took two (out of the many) pizza centers "tables" I have, painted them black and used them as the bases.

I haven't worked much with new minis but will hopefully have more for you later. 

I'm Still Here!

 I know, it has been quite a while since my last post but I promise you all that I am still here and that I do indeed, still have minis on the mind.

Seriously though, I have planned out so many new mini projects that I feel overloaded with ideas.  And now that I have finally found more time to focus on said minis, I have decided to start with just simply playing with my minis for this little scene.  So yeah, in other words, I got so overwhelmed with ideas that I couldn't think of a single one when I finally sat down to create...judge me not.

Anyway,....

I have so many mini toys that any kind of child's room is an easy go to.  However, this particular scene does have a few new minis, let's see if you can eye them?

Titles are hard....

I am not good at coming up with catchy titles.  Any way, I am sorry for not posting much.  We've decided to homeschool the girls this year and I am a nervous wreck and obsessing with getting everything ready that I haven't done much else.  But I thought I would at the very least, stop by and share with you a little something my daughter has been working on.  She wanted to make a miniature room like mommy!

I think it is adorably creative.  My youngest is working on one as well but hasn't finished her's yet.

Hopefully I'll find some time to get crafty as well, until then, have a good day!
