Oh my gosh! I genuinely can’t even imagine the detail required for even painting the details on the flower vases! My mouth literally dropped open when I saw this. I’d be interested to know more about the process. Is the furniture crafted from wood or some other kind of material?

Well, I will tell you they actually come in a kit. There are like hundreds of pieces, with instructions! And every little piece has to assembled and glued together, then placed into the miniature after the walls are constructed. The paint on the vases would be already there, but I think they may be out of thick paper and he has to construct the vase. It’s like a crazy puzzle he has to put together and I would never have the patience! At almost 84 he still has the dexterity and the eyesight to do this! I’m thinking the furniture is pressed wood of some sort and cardboard. If I get a chance, I need to include a photo of the disassembled pieces in my next one.

Wow, 84! I have no clue how he has the patience and dexterity for this! That’s really impressive. I also love the idea of kits for people to make miniatures like this. Some people are so creative 😊

Very sweet. I’d love a visit and a nose-around at all the details if I could shrink myself down to the size to slide into those slippers…. 💜
