2018! An Amazing Year for My Miniature World

Hello everyone,

We have started once again another year. Wow 2019! Let's hope that we will have another fantastic mini year!

I have been a bit under the weather. I have a bad cold that I can't seem to shake off! At the end of the year I usually make a run through of what happened in the previous year and what to expect for the following one. There is so much to say about 2018 that I really don't know from where to start. I have to admit 2018 has been the most successful year ever!


2018 should be marked as a Year to remember for My Miniature World. I have achieved so many goals and so many opportunities opened up to me.

Before I start, I wanted to thank my family, my best of friends, you followers, clients and fans for the support and encouragement through out the years.

My Miniature World Blog now has  267 followers and 214 on Google plus, The blog reached 351,272 views which means it had 82,548 views just for 2018! Wow! that means so much to me.

My Miniature World on Face Book has reached over 17,700 likes and My Miniature World Group on fb has over 2,000 members. Thank you for being a part of it!

As from 2018 My Miniature World can also be found on Instagram and on Twitter


My Miniature World Shop on Etsy has been doing amazingly well. Now we have reached over 2208 followers. The Shop offer 517 miniatures both in 1:12 scale and in 1:24 scale. So far my miniatures have reached 35 countries all over the globe.


Like every year here is the run through of what happened in 2018.

July

In July I had my big break here in Malta. My very first interview and introduction to the Maltese Islands by The People of Malta. From here I want to thank Stephen Buhagiar for opening the doors to the Maltese audience. Thank you Stephen for opening so many opportunities on the island. 

Not even a week after the People of Malta's interview, My Miniature World was on the Maltese National News on TVM Channel. 

August

August was the high light of the year! After the hard work to finish the new premises of My Miniature World, it was time to open the doors for the public.


On 31st August 2018 My Miniature World had it's launch and the Grand Opening.  An amazing experience through out the weekend. 




Also The Maltese Magazine 'Gwida' published a 4 page Interview about My Miniature World
September


My Miniature World's launch and Grand Opening was featured on The Dolls House Emporium Face Book Page and on their other social media. 

Also My Miniature World Blog was featured on the DollsHouse & Miniature Scene Magazine.

October

In October I started a New Project 'The Traditional Dolls House' for my little Leah. 


Another amazing experience. A two full page feature on the leading Newspaper The Times of Malta.  I wasn't expecting anything like this. 
From there another opportunity opened up .  An interview for the TVAM Tv Show aired on TVM Channel.

I needed a break from the interviews and TV, so I had the most amazing experience of all when I attended the biggest dolls house, doll and teddy fair in The Netherlands. I also got to visit the dolls house shop 'The Cabinet' in Gouda. 

November

Another big experience that is still aired every fortnight. I take part live on the TV Show Life & Style on NET TV Maltese Channel where I am sharing an ongoing project of the Library.

December

The Christmas snowman teapot tutorial featured on the Dolls House World Magazine

The start of the new Project the room box 'The Dickens Book Shop which it's progress is being shown on the TV Show Life & Style 


Just before the year ended there was another interview aired on the TV Show 'Niskata' on TVM Channel

And that was a Wrap for the Year 2018. Quite a Busy one I would say. A year that I will never forget with so many beautiful and unique moments and experiences. 

For the year 2019 I will continue working on the Traditional Dolls House and The Dickens Book Shop.

Also I am all set to star the new project Pembroke Grange. It is there dry built waiting for me to start the magic. I am still studying it, researching and it's ready for big changes.



 Let's hope that 2019 will be fruitful and that I will get to share with you my miniature work through my blog like always. So make sure to keep tuned for another year of new minis.

Take Care and See You Soon,

Hugs,
