What’s New in My Miniature World

Hello everyone,

How are you all? I hope you’re having a lovely week. Today I’m excited to share a little peek into what has been happening in my miniature world lately. Over the past weeks, I’ve been working on a variety of new miniatures; each one different, detailed, and such a joy to create. 

I’ve also had quite a number of wonderful visitors at My Miniature World Museum. It always warms my heart to see the look of wonder on their faces as they explore my dolls’ houses and miniature creations.

Lately, I’ve been experimenting more with tiny accessories and decorative pieces, so my workbench has been buzzing with new little projects, each one full of detail and personality. Some are for an upcoming display at The International Dolls Houses and Miniature Fair in Expo Houten, The Netherlands. Yes, people… I will be exhibiting there in January 2026! Others are for future museum projects, and a few were simply born from sudden inspiration and curiosity.

I started off with some lovely kits by Jane Harrop that I brought home from the DHN Show in Arnhem. The first piece was the cutest nostalgic vintage Swiss jewellery box. I added delicate hand-painted floral details to give it that timeless, old-world touch. 

Then came the adorable Scotty dog bookends; even sweeter than I imagined! 

And of course, the tiny 1:48 scale dolls’ house, a miniature treasure that required patience, steady hands, and plenty of love.

I also got a new toy… a laser cutter!

 I tested it by cutting an SVG file and made the sweetest dolls’ house cupboard, which will soon take its place inside The Mouse House. I can already tell that this massive machine is going to open up a whole new world of possibilities.

Then I moved on to some furniture pieces for a big upcoming project. I made, painted and upholstered the elegant swan chairs to perfection.

I also made round tables that I gilded with gold leaf and finished with hand-painted marble tops

I also created a beautiful rose fireplace that I absolutely adore.

But without doubt, the most challenging and rewarding piece from these past weeks has been my miniature dome Ballerina Clock. Inspired by the vintage German clocks by W. & A. Schmid-Schlenker from the 1960s, this design required a lot of thinking and planning. I wanted to capture the delicate detail and elegance of the original while giving it my own artistic touch. From sketching the concept, choosing the correct colours, designing the tiny details, and assembling the final piece. Every step demanded precision. Seeing it finally come together was incredibly satisfying, and I’m truly proud of how it turned out.

This weekend, I will be going to the Kensington Dollshouse Festival Christmas Show in London. This time, I’m going as a visitor, and I plan to enjoy every moment of it. I’m sure I’ll be bringing home a few lovely goodies!

So this is all for today. I hope you enjoyed this little update and the miniatures I’ve been working on. Make sure to stay tuned for the next update and the latest news from My Miniature World.

Take Care and See You Soon.

Featured in Dolls House World UK – The Dutch Baby House Cabinet

Hello everyone,

How are you all? I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend. I’m absolutely thrilled to share some exciting news with you all! My project, The Dutch Baby House Cabinet, has been featured in the latest issue of Dolls House World UK Magazine, Issue 385!

The article, titled “Victorian Parlour Where Tiny Worlds Come Alive,” beautifully showcases this elegant cabinet that forms the heart of The Victorian Miniature Parlour. It’s one of my proudest creations and a true showstopper that captures the magic of the Victorian era in miniature.

The Dutch Baby House Cabinet is filled with six intricate rooms, each telling its own little story from the refined main bedroom and the cosy study to the charming nursery and classic bathroom, all in the tiniest 1:144 scale. Every room is designed with precision, warmth, and that touch of nostalgia that makes miniatures so enchanting.

Creating this piece was a joy from start to finish. It combines my love for storytelling, artistry, and history, and it’s wonderful to see it recognised in such a respected magazine. I’m deeply honoured to be featured in Dolls House World , a publication that has long celebrated the passion and creativity behind the miniature world.

I’m also delighted to announce that there’s now a new miniature book inspired by The Victorian Miniature Parlour!  This little treasure captures the project’s essence in true miniature form which is a lovely keepsake for collectors and miniature enthusiasts. The book will be available soon from My Miniature World online shop.

Thank you all so much for your love and continued support. It means the world to me to be able to share these moments with you. Make sure to stay tuned for more exciting updates and upcoming projects!

Take Care and See You Soon.

The Victorian Miniature Parlour - Finally Complete!

 Hello everyone,

How are you all? I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I have been quite busy these past few weeks, but today I am over the moon to share something very special. The Victorian Miniature Parlour is finally complete!

This project has been my constant companion since January 2025, and after eight months of work, patience, and countless tiny details, I can proudly say it’s finished. Every piece, from the smallest dollhouse to the delicate furniture, carries a little story of its own.

The last few touches brought everything together beautifully. I finally added the staircase runner with the carpet rods, which instantly gave the room that elegant Victorian charm.

I also dressed the windows with curtains, hung the picture frames, and placed the open-and-close shop sign. 

And outside, I added my organ wagon, which I had made a couple of years ago, and it fitted perfectly with the overall scene.

I have to admit, the most challenging part was working on the tiny furniture inside the miniature dollhouses. The 1:144 and 1:48 scale pieces inside a 1:12 world! It truly tested my patience, but I enjoyed every second of it.

As for the story behind the shop, The Victorian Miniature Parlour belongs to Miss Julie Montague, a talented miniaturist and a proud protégé of Lady Adelaide, from my previous project The Miniaturist of Regent Street. Miss Julie always had a passion for dolls and a keen eye for detail, and her shop reflects that love perfectly. Within her parlour, she surrounds herself with her favourite dollhouses, tiny treasures, and exquisite creations.

The project now stands proudly at My Miniature World Museum, displayed near Holly’s Christmas Shoppe. Seeing it finally in place fills me with so much joy; a reminder of how far this project has come from a single idea to a fully realised miniature world.

Here are a few pictures and video of the complete project.

While The Victorian Miniature Parlour marks the end of a beautiful chapter, it’s also the beginning of new adventures. I’m now gearing up for a much bigger and more unique project, but in the meantime, I’ll be working on two smaller side projects; The Minikin and The Mouse House in The Sewing Room.

So this is all for today, my dear friends. I hope you love The Victorian Miniature Parlour as much as I do. Make sure to keep tuned for the next updates and latest news. There’s so much more to come!

Take Care and See You Soon.

Hugs,

A Wonderful Weekend at the Dolls House Nederland Show 2025

 Hello everyone!

How are you all? I hope you’re doing well. It’s the weekend again, and I still can’t believe that it has already been a week since my girls and I were in Arnhem, The Netherlands, for the Dolls House Nederland Show.

What an incredible event it was! With over 53 international artists participating, the atmosphere was buzzing with creativity and inspiration. Apart from enjoying a wonderful girls’ weekend, we truly poured our hearts into creating a beautiful display filled with miniature accessories; from unique hand-painted pieces to miniature books and decorative ceramics. There was something special for everyone to enjoy!

One of the things I love most about these shows is connecting with old friends, meeting new artists, and getting to know the visitors who share the same passion for miniatures. It’s always such a joy to exchange ideas, learn from one another, and simply enjoy being part of this amazing community.

Of course, no show is complete without picking up a few treasures for my own collection! Here are the goodies I brought home:

Two beautiful porcelain dolls by the talented Spanish artist Victoria Heredia Guerbos. I absolutely adore her work, and there’s no way I could attend a show without adding at least one (or two!) of her tiny dolls to my collection. I’m especially thrilled with the little sailor boy doll; the first miniature boy I’ve ever owned! 

A lovely armchair by Dutch artist H.J. Goergen. 

It has been a few years now since I first met Han and Janet, and I always make it a point to get something from them. Their work never disappoints!

Some delightful kits from British artist Jane Harrop, whom I’ve known for over 20 years! 

It was such a pleasure to finally meet her in person.

An adorable miniature frog toy by Natasja Woord.  

A charming tea cosy by Annelies de Kort.

Here is a short video that we made. 

The entire weekend was such a rewarding experience; full of laughter, inspiration, and miniature magic. A big heartfelt thank you goes to Rika and Marcus for organizing such a wonderful and well-run show. Everything was perfect!

This is all for today, stay tuned for the new updates of my ongoing projects and latest news.

Take Care and See You Soon.

Hugs,
