Pictures like this make me really happy.
Having days of work all neatly arranged next to the full sized item, with the beautiful morning sun shining through the window. 🥰

Happy Tuesday everyone!
Hope you all have a fabulous day. 🤗

Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Mum's, Nanny's and Mother figures....you're all amazing!
Hope you all get some well deserved time today to sit back and relax.
I'm going to sit on the deck and enjoy a nice cup of tea in the sunshine (probably with a blanket...it's a bit nippy out there 🙈) 🌞🌞🌞

What's your favourite?
When ever I make something new I always go the brand new 'off the shelf' look. So, it's nice to treat myself occasionally and get creative!
Really had fun painting these...adding the rust, oil, scraping away the decals and giving it character.

Which one do you like best?
Do you think I should sell the 'dirty' versions as well as 'clean'? Or just one type?
Would really appreciate any opinions. 🤗

A little something I made over Christmas for my wonderful neighbour Faiza.
She kindly invited me to join the lovely little knitting group she goes to every week and I'm really enjoying it.

Although I really enjoy my job as a miniature model maker (most of the time 🤭), it's been lovely to be part of a group and have some people to talk to, and to do something a little different for a change.

I must admit, I did have to start again about 3 times when I did the knitted bit in the basket, but they were 1mm needles and it's been a very long time since I've done any knitting, so I'm pretty chuffed with how it turned out.

At knitting club I've decided to jump right into the deep end and knit a frog 🙈🐸. I'm steadily getting to grips with all the terminology and techniques, but my goodness, the wool is quite fluffy and one heck of a challenge 😬. But, I'll get there.... eventually! 🤞

Knitting basket:
3D printed basket and knitting needles.
Acid etched stainless steel ruler.
Knitting from 1ply acrylic yarn.
Knitting book and sewing pattern.
Scissors and sheep cast in pewter. (currently using pewter recycled from old cups that belonged to my husband grandfather ♥️)

Got these fabulous boots for Christmas from my wonderful hubby ( ).
Can't wait to get a mould made for thick soul Dr Martens!

Well it's a 'bit' better...at least I have somewhere to put a cup of tea now (which, let's face it, is the most important thing! 😏☕)

Suppose I've got no excuse not to get on with things now 🙈.

Happy Thursday everyone!

I think it might be time to tidy my desk 🙈

A belated happy new year!!
Our website is now running and open for business! 🎉

Last year was extremely tough, but, despite all of the hurdles and stresses, I am feeling hopeful and positive that this year will be better. 💪🤞
We've got lots of exciting things to look forward to, including our new website, which will feature our new range of Phoenix and Warwick miniatures and a new workshop!!! I can't ruddy wait! 🤪

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous new year and as always, thank you for all of your kindness and support....you're all fabulous! 😘

Love,

Hannah & Chris

It looks like we have finally solved the "out of stock" issue that seems to have been still affecting our lovely (and extremely patient) customers.
However, there are very few calendars remaining, so please get in quick to avoid disappointment!

For those who have already purchased a calendar, we are working our little elf socks off getting them processed for shipping. To ensure everyone gets them in time for the 1st of December, we are prioritising orders from abroad, which will be in the post asap! 📦✈️

We're so sorry the website has caused so many people, so much stress - in the new year we will have a lovely new shiny website, complete with our new mini venture, Phoenix & Warwick Miniatures! 🥳

It's always the most dull items I seem to get most excited about 🙈.
Had a bit of spare space to use up when I sent something off to be acid etched for the calendar - so I designed this little guy!
It's a bit nerve wracking sending things off to be processed because you don't 100% know how it's going to turn out. And, if it's wrong, well, it's a lot of money down the drain! 🫣

Luckily, this ruler turned out perfectly! I'm so chuffed with it! It's made from 0.2mm staleness steel and is EXACTLY 1/12th scale. So, if you really want, you can measure your minis at scale! 😂

I've added them to the website (look at me being organised for a change🤗)

What do you think?
Shall I add a longer one? and/or maybe a protractor, square etc? 🤔
