Christmas Art Deco House Part 2






Katina has sent me photos of more of the art deco house! See the previous post for more.
This is the bathroom, nursery and study. The furniture was custom made for her, by "Some extremely talented people!", and once again she made lots of the accessories and soft furnishings.

Boy's Bedroom On Christmas Morning- Sixties







It's Christmas Morning in England in the 60s- His parents said he couldn't wake them up until sunrise- they want their sleep in! So he left his blind up so that he could wake up straight away!
Then they'll be rushing around opening presents and cooking. He's only about six years old, yet he's already got a Beatles poster from an older sibling.

Almost everything in this box was made by hand by my mother and I, or at least put together by hand. We made it as proof that you can make fantastic miniatures without spending a fortune! You could do a whole house like this.
The books on the bedside table are Winnie the Pooh and Pookie. Anyone remember Pookie?
He's left his snowflake making on the window seat.
The toys on the shelves include...
a felt rabbit, a kite, a toy boat, a book about golliwogs, a bouncy ball, a pair of binoculars, some teddies, 'Peter Rabbit Goes To School', a clown money box, an Enid Blyton book, a toy fire engine, a toy train, an ant farm, a photo of his family, a pack of pencils, a bag of marbles and a cup and ball.

Tall Chimneys Christmas





These are from Grazhina. "We had a Christmas swap in a miniatures group one year and I redid the kitchen to show the descendants of the farmer's family enjoying the season using swap items. The old kitchen has become their living room."


This room of a house is a great example of how people make miniature scenes to show old and new coming together!

Micro Minis -Father Christmas and Elf


He measures 5/12 inch tall plus hat, has a red suit trimmed with white “fur”, black boots and belt (with gold buckle), green mittens and comes with a silk toy sack.




This Christmas Elf is made from the tiny wire candy canes that were sold to decorate miniature trees. It is about 5/12th of an inch tall. He (or she if you wish) wears a green tunic, hat and shoes and got himself tangled in gold garland while trying to decorate the toy shop tree!

As well as 1:12 scale, there's also 1:144 scale.

This is from Weefolkandfantasy. And yes, they are real. They're either people for a 1:144 scale house, or ornament size for a 1:12 scale. A dollhouse for a dollhouse if you will.

So here, 1:144 scale Father Christmas, and Elf.

Black Santa



This rustic little black Santa is 1" / 1/12th dollhouse scale (5.5 "/14cm). He is a one-of-a-kind polymer clay doll entirely handmade by CWPoppets.
His arms and legs are gently posable. He carries a bag over his shoulder while he holds a walking stick in his other hand. His bag and trousers are handstiched with little christmas motives. His bootes are made of soft leather. His coat is lined with fur.

Santa is having a hard job carrying the heavy bag (well, think of his age!).
