At long last...

I know it has been ages...
but I have been hard at work at my miniatures!
And here are the results.. I do hope you like it!
I am still not sure about the colour of the door.
I like the colour... But does it work with the gray bricks?...
What do you think?


Welcome to my 1/12 scale house...
I hope you enjoy your stay!
Don't you just love this blue? It really makes the bespaq console pop.
I used about 1 450 little nails to trim the door!



Can I take your coat? The butler will take your luggage upstairs.




Lets proceed to the drawing room. Would you like a drink?
Yes, the painting is an oil on canvas.
And those little ottomans were designed by Elsie de Wolf herself!



Ah, hope you are hungry... dinner is served!
You are welcome to look around...
But dinner first!
Making these little chairs were SO fiddly!
And I'll have you know that the wallpaper is all hand painted!
I have to admit that the chandelier was NOT made by me, but by some talented artist in Italy.




After dinner, we can kick off our shoes and have a good little gossip or solve world problems here, in front of a cozy fire...

I bought the tall white urn on the pedestal in Thailand!


Would you like to spend the night in the guest room?
Oops, somebody already at home!
Oh, it's the Mini Mad Hatter Miles reading the newspaper!




Then sorry.. you'll have to take THIS OLD room!
Hope you don't mind?
As usual, space in a dolls house always a problem.
Perhaps I should rather make this into a bathroom?
I can also keep the pretty chinoiserie wallpaper then.
What do you think?




I hope you enjoyed the little tour.
I'll show you the kitchen and rest of the house when I finish it...

OK?
Not OK?

Sorry, but I could not help myself!
Lots of 'Redd' Herrings and...
I am sure you all recognized at least SOME of the creations of one of my favourite designers!

This is Miles Redd of course!
And today is....

APRIL 1st!

And here is the talented Mr. Miles Redd himself,
taking a leap of relief (in his splendid mirrored bathroom), that I admitted my fraud.




I can also honestly say that NONE of these lovely photos were taken by me...
And alas... none of these rooms are miniature
BUT

HOW I WISH!
If you take a look at my post here,  now you know where I got the 'inspiration' for that painting.
And the REDD couch.

And of course, here and there I DID tell the truth!

Changing the world into miniature...
One thing at a time.
