Once there we spent the day being filmed showing viewers of Dollshouseworld.TV how to make an array of sweet treats such as candy canes lollipops toffee apples battenburg cake...and much more. Thanks to all the team for their wonderful warm welcome and for inviting us to share all our hints and tips for miniaturists who want to have a go at making their own minis.

The article was the first of a new series that focused on Miniature makers and their Life in the Hobby. As big fans of Dollshouse World we love reading about miniaturists in the field and feel very privilegedthat they focused on Home petite Home. We would like to give a big thanks to Dollshouse World and also to our lovely customers who support us adding our items to their miniature collections. 2011-7-4 14:49:31 http://www.homepetitehome.co.uk/page29.htm#93918 This month we thought that we would give you all a sneaky peek at the face behind our Home petite Home Advertisements. For those of you familiar with our ads in Dolls House World Magazine you will have noticed that each month we go to great lengths to keep our images fresh and to feature a different Home petite Home product every time. We thought that it would only be fair to show you the face behind the scenes....so pictured is Rebekah working hard in creating our next ad layout for the Dolls House World July issue available at the end of the month. You will probably notice when you pick up your own copy that our little Westie dog seems to have made another appearance... see if you can spot our mini mascot next time 2011-5-14 17:17:12 http://www.homepetitehome.co.uk/page29.htm#78421 I had the pleasure of being invited to the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery on Saturday 23rd October for International Artist Sonia Boyces book launch LIKE LOVE. With cupcakes on offer it was hard to resist and lovely to catch up with all those that had been involved with Sonias project. Thanks to all who have supported the museums miniature workshops that Home petite Home were involved with... and we will keep you up to date with any other projects that we will be involved with in the future. 2010-10-27 10:58:16 http://www.homepetitehome.co.uk/page29.htm#74035 This week saw the first of two workshops hosted by The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery in StokeonTrent that I am involved in the second being on Saturday 18th September. The first workshop that took place on Monday 23rd August had a Victorian theme and the project was to make a little 112th scale parasol a mini notebook or storybook....or even both as many did What was so great about the day was the variety in ages and abilities turning up to get involved from tots to OAPs and have some fun with miniatures. Dont forget to come along on Saturday 18th September anytime between 10am and 12pm if you want to join in our second workshop which will have a WWII Life on the Home Front theme. 2010-8-29 07:00:45 http://www.homepetitehome.co.uk/page29.htm#72242 This month Ive been really busy with a Wedding cake topper 2 Dolls house commissions and more As well as keeping the website running I was asked to scuplt a personalised Mickey amp Minnie Cake topper to tie in with a 3 tier Wedding cake see Gallery pictures for the finished result. Once Mickey and Minnie were well on the way the 2 Dolls houses needed to be decorated and lit. If this wasnt enough there was also a Teddy Bears picnic to make food supplies for miniature cupcakes to create for a talented jewellry maker and a Graduation figure to scuplt for a newly qualified Barrister....Phew The great thing about Home petite Home is the variety and also the challenge of working on different projects.
