Welcome

Welcome to my website! Here you'll find pictures of my hobby, creating things in miniature. I love tiny things and have built dollhouses, and have created scenes in teacups, cigar boxes, and room-boxes. My preferred scale is 1:12, but have recently become fascinated with the 1:144 scale which is the scale for a dollhouse within a dollhouse. I hope you enjoy the albums; feel free to comment.
