Miniature Madness

Hey there! I had some great finds this weekend at Craft Depot.  I was there with my daughter when we discovered that someone had just donated their stash of miniatures - SCORE! I picked up some 1/4" scale furniture and these are the pieces I made with them.
The two dolls are all both made from mini bed frames - I guess you could say they're "Bed Dolls." Just to give you an idea of how bitty these beds are, they measure up to a scant 1 1/2" tall.
This is a portion of the minis that I picked up. 
Next up, we snagged five mini bakery racks perfect for displaying my daughter's handmade polymer clay creations. We couldn't conjure up a better display if we tried! :-)  

My daughter loves to make these sweet charms. Just give her a few packs of clay and some tools and she's a happy camper!

I love the donut box on the upper left corner!
Below are some of my daughter's newest items: floating charms! They're pieces that have an effect as if they're actually "floating," for example on the hamburger the mustard bottle looks as if it's suspended in mid-air.
Have a great week!

    So very clever to use the bed frames for the dolls. I love the way the full skirt gives it dimension.
    Rachel's floating charms are so cute - amazing how she created these. Love the box of donuts too!

    Connie - Love the "bed" dolls...so sweet & adorable! Great finds on the miniature furniture...Rachel's pastries look good enough to eat and looks terrific on the baker's racks.
