Very cool ironwork!

Not architecture-related, but the household dolls held a climate protest this weekend:

Doll Climate Protest 2020 (warning: politics, all the photos)

This was yesterday at our house: [image] (we did a smaller protest in 2017, as documented here but now there are more dolls & my child is more able to write things, if still unmotivated.) A few of the new signs are from the C’ster ongoing ATC swaps. Rockingbearranch, @marionberries, Limeriot, & whoever did the unsigned “It’s not the Heat, It’s the Stupidity” sign have contributions. Apologies for the feud between site software & iphone photo gallery… every single one of these pictures was t…

I’m not sure how I missed this craftalong!!! I LOVE miniatures!

I won’t bother boring y’all by posting the miniatures I’ve done that already have their own threads, but I may add some goodies here now and again!

How have I missed this craftalong. I’ve just posted a minature kit that I made, and I’m perplexed as to how to link it here

Edit: I figured it out

Library corner miniature

This was a kit that I bought on AliExpress. And it turned out to be the perfect thing for lockdown. It was very detailed so it was absorbing.

[AIMR (Linda -2024 Choose Projects that You Want to Do :us:)]

Really a cute way to use up the paper floral wire…I love Ann Woods tiny doll…she just put out a free pattern for the cutest overalls…yes, the bed would be perfect!

[witchery (Steffi)]

Some updates: I got the bed done, sorta. I still have to dry brush it and add “moss” and other plant-based things + a mattress etc.

And then I decided I might try my hand at making some tiny owls because witches always need an owl for a friend. So I made these:
