hi i havent posted on this blog in like Forever, but i just thought id ask:

some context is, my partner and i are going to make a big dollhouse and put bjds that we customize to look like us in it. however we are both fat (and like it like that!), and its been Very hard to find fat bjd sculpts in the preferred size range we're looking for to make into our dollsonas.

we're looking for either 1/12 size fat bjds Or 1/6 size fat bjds. does anyone have any suggestions??

these faux porcelain & filigree animals might become a series because they are just so fun to make.

using paper napkins for decoupage has also made me a superfan of william morris. his designs have so many elements going on i could make five completely different dolls from a single one. the patterns on this bunny are from the strawberry thief, pictured below.

would definitely love to see more of your faux porcelain & filigree dolls!!

so cool to see the artwork of the decoupage you're using too

It’s a Snail World After All: Tiny Molluscs Slide Around Town in Nostalgic Miniature Sets

[thegeekstressart]

You ever see something innocuous, minding its own business on the clearance shelf at Michael’s and before you know it, it takes over your life for a few weeks?

So it was with this desktop greenhouse.

I took it home and after taking an appropriate time to “season” my idea in my mind (read: a month or two) I set to make my vision of a mini botanical garden a reality.

I started by removing the heavy glass panels and building a raised floor above the latch. I wanted to use the base as a foundation on the building.

I wrapped the foundation in plastic stone textured flooring (meant for Christmas villages) and built a pond at one end of the same. I then gave it a more realistic paint job and designed a rough layout for my plants and displays.

I also knew I wanted to make the ironwork significantly more intricate, but I wasn’t sure how just yet…

Up next - PLANTS! I went wild making all kinds of plants. Some were specific species and some were more conceptual.

I made several trees with polymer clay and moss, cacti out of beads and flocking, cattails out of raffia, hot glue and coffee grounds, and giant monstera leaves out of paper and wire.

This part should have taken me a long time, but it really came together fast. I loved finding ways to replicate natural shapes and patterns using bits of this and that.

I did make adjustments to my plans as I went like eliminating benches in favor of a simpler overall design.

Then I needed to fill my pond with water. For this I used resin. Lily pads were added to the top layer, and I wired in simple LED fairy lights. The batteries are kept in the box under the foundation.

In a weekend frenzy I added more plants, metal (paper) steps, new (plexi)glass windows, a roof, wrought-iron vines (paper again), doors that open, and a hose reel disguising the latch. Suddenly, a project I thought would take months was finished…

I love my desktop botanical garden. Right now it sits on a simple lazy Susan in my office. But I’d love to get it a proper display box to protect from dust.

Thank you for coming on this little journey with me. This piece packs a lot of joy into a tiny space. I always love building miniatures, and I’ll be doing more in the future I’m sure.

Kerri Pajutee makes miniatures for dollhouses. Her sculptures are freeformed from polymer clay over wire armature & dressed in a natural fibre coat. The delicateness and sharp quality of detail on these small palettes is amazing

Winter elf Blanche.

With her elf ears she is more herself.

I blushed her ears, hands and feet with soft pastels, to match her face.

Doll: Smartdoll Marvel plus elf ears, tea skintone, pear body.

Outfit: pant-skirt made by me, headscarf crochet by me, vintage temporary winter coat.

I think she is gorgeous, I like messy hair!
