Studio Addition Update

 Here is a short video clip made from the progress photos of my attic studio addition.

Let me know what you think!

Instagram Live Interview

I had the pleasure of being the inaugural guest on D Thomas Fine Miniature's latest Instagram endeavor.

It was called a Mini Meet Up and the premise of the program was to have a few guest chat during an Instagram Live.  I gave a quick update on my studio. It was fun.

Darren with D Thomas Miniatures has a few miniature programs and interviews that he puts together and features them on Facebook, Instagram and his YouTube channel.

Podcast and Interview!

I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Del Hornbuckle for a new podcast series that she is putting together.  Click here to watch:   Interview Here

We discuss my journey into miniatures, some of my mini accomplishments and discussed some of my collections.

Happy New Year !

Wishing you a Happy New Year for 2021

 Here are a few pictures that I have shared on my Instagram account so far in December:

A Few Instagram Updates

 I am posting a few of my popular pictures from my Instagram Account.  I have not had a lot of time to work on projects, but I do enjoy photographing miniature scenes.

This was my post on National Peach Day and my 1930's Schoenhut kitchen set.

I have been posting pictures of my Willits take-a-seat collection each week

Here was a post that I did for National Waffle day

On Tuesday's I post pictures of my TynieToy Collection.  In this post I was illustrating the difference between TynieToy and this other German piece from the same period.

This was a post that I did on National Pierced Ears day.  ( the plates are in fact earings)

This post was from National Bowling day ( poor attempt at humor)

This is actually not an Instagram post, but a Strombecker vanity top that I recently purchased on Ebay.  

I'm going to make new legs and bring it back to life.
