Lesley's dolls house/mini journal

At last I took delivery of Ashcroft Hall from 'The Dolls House Builder'. It was worth the wait. It is huge. My little dog could live in it!
I haven't taken a picture yet but will post one over the weekend.
However in the meantime I am going to post pictures of my nearly finished Edwardian Haberdashery. I loved making this although the making of the shoe boxes etc was quite time consuming. I taught myself to make hats,gloves,shoes,boxes and other miniatures. It is so satisfying to do these yourself rather than buy ready made.
The reason I have started making miniatures and not just houses is the impending arrival of the mansion. I really do want to make a success of this. And to do this will take a lot of money,so the more I can make myself the better.
So watch this blog because I am sure I will be asking all you miniaturist's for advice.
