I`m making a quiltshop i miniature and I`m gonna put it in there.

OT: Norwegian Heirloom

This has nothing to do with miniature, but I wanted to show you what I`m busy doing these days. I`m making bunads for costumers.
I have two, which have to be finished by end of April for the young girls confirmation.It takes many houres to finish just one, and I have to be focused on making these,
so there is little time for minis.*sad*

But I have to admitt, I like making these dresses. I don`t do the embrodery, but I sew them together.I think they are beautiful and they tell us who we are. I`m also planning on making one in miniature............. one day:)

Each part of Norway has they very own bunad, that tells them where they come from.

Here you can learn more about Bunad .

This is my daughter in her very own bunad.
I made it last May of 2008, for her Confirmation Day.
*******************
Oh, and one other ting, I do have some mini-pics that I wanted to show you all, but......I can`t find the wire to my camera, which means that I can`t upload any pics from my camera to the computer.
Maybe it would be a good idea to clean up my mess in my sewingroom LOL!!!!
See U later!!

Titanias Palace

When I first saw Titanias Palace in Legoland, Denmark, I was amazed. It was so beautiful and so huge. It took 30 years to complete the dollhouse and it is extremely detailed.Books you can read and piano that works.

I didn`t spend much time in the room where it was placed, because the kids wanted to go play....well whith the legos of course LOL. They didn`t have time to wait for theire Mom to explore the dollhouse. A couple of years later, we went back to Legoland for our summerholiday, and it was still there. So Mom got see the dollhouse again. Now my kids are to old to go to Legoland and I don`t want go back there either. Titanias Palace has been moved to another part of Denmark. Luckily I can watch it on youtube, and I hope you will enjoy it too :)

It`s been a while..

since my last blogging.
Hope you all had a great holiday.
Before christmas I didn`t do much minis. Therefore, my little pause. :)

I decided I wanted to do a total makover in the kitchen area.


Kitchen was the first I did when I started my dollhouse addiction for so and so many years ago. I had no knowledge off what to do and how to do things.
And I used what ever I had in sight.
011
This is what it looks like at the moment. New floor and new wallpaper.
012
I made this bench next to the sink.

Happy New Year to every one !!!
