I like attending miniature shows with my artisan pieces and lots of supplies for your miniature and doll making needs. I have always enjoyed being able to see what I am purchasing to know if it will work for me.  I believe others are like me as well and enjoy seeing items in person.  I also like meeting everyone at the shows I attend.  It's great to meet new friends and older friends and the exchanging of ideals for projects. 

Here you will find some of my finished pieces as well as some of my stock of supplies available for purchase.  I can either take an email order or Etsy order.  If you would like a certain item just email me and I can send you a PayPal invoice.
