Announcement    I am sorry I am UNABLE to accept requests for CUSTOM ORDERS at this time due to a backlog.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LISTING BEFORE PURCHASE. If you have questions, I'll be happy to answer them. Just send me a message. :)

Items purchased in my shop are NOT for resale purposes. If you wish to order for resale, you must send a request and receive permission to do so. You may contact me for more information. Large orders for promotional purposes or resale may qualify for a quantity discount.

This shouldn't have to be said, but I will not copy another artist's work. And, if you are another seller, and you would like to use one of my original designs, please contact me for permission.

Custom orders must be paid for within 48 hours of completion unless prior arrangements have been made.

I work in all scales, and I love trying new things. My favorite miniatures to create are mid-century modern. I love contemporary modern and and Hollywood Regency style. I also do some shabby chic and cottage chic. I make everything from major furniture pieces to tiny accessories. I make miniature replicas and original designs. I try to keep a large variety of styles and price ranges in stock all the time. When I construct furniture, I make it as realistic as possible with methods very much like real furniture construction. I use a wood frame, never foam core, and use quality foam and fabric for upholstery and pillows.

I have loved miniatures since I was a little girl. I started sewing and making miniatures a 12 years ago when I decided to make a 1/12th scale room box that was a replica of my youngest daughter's nursery. One of my older daughters helped make tiny things in the room from paper, and I did the sewing and painting. I enjoy making the miniatures that I sell. I've heard other dollhouse enthusiasts say that it's like being a decorator-with tiny rooms! I feel the same. It's a great creative outlet, and I strive to make them as realistic and true to scale as possible. Thanks for stopping by. Ronda

A love of small things...

I have always loved all things miniature! From Barbies as a kid, to collections of miniature chairs and topiary, miniature games, and finally recreating miniature replicas of rooms in our own house, I love making miniatures. My taste is very eclectic, from mid-century modern to shabby chic, and that is reflected in the miniatures I create. I have a lot of fun working with my customers on special projects, and I've been fortunate to have very nice customers. I appreciate their feedback and enjoy making things they like.

Shop policies

Last updated on April 28, 2020
My items are for personal use, and not for resale. If you are interested in resale options, please contact me for information.
I accept custom order requests when time permits. Orders must be paid withing 48 hours of completion. Contact me for other arrangements.
Please keep in mind that nearly everything I make is made by hand with several different materials. Because of that, there will be slight imperfections, and no two items are exactly alike. I take close-up photos and several photos so that customers can see as much detail as possible. Buying a scratch built item is not like buying a mass-produced item or an item that is machine made from plastic or metal. I do my very best to make miniatures that look very nice, and are as sturdy as possible. Please read the entire description. I try to include all the information I can about the use, size, scale, and construction process of every miniature I make.
