Dolls House and Miniature Scene  |  April 2015 (Iss 251)
We are starting a brand new three part project series in this issue – how to dress like a Tudor. And we start with King Henry VIII, the second monarch of the Tudor dynasty.
Louise Goldsborough has used a selection of fine silk, fancy brocade and an assortment of crystals, pearls and embellishments to dress the King who not only was known for his love of fashion, but for his numerous marriages. Of course we have lots and lots of other exciting projects including the most amazing pot made from quilling paper, the continuation of Natalie Clegg’s WW1 Cabinet and Steampunk series and Sadie Brown takes us out for a curry (not literally) plus some great, inspirational profiles and collectors.
Looking ahead, I’d like to tell you about a new 1/12th instructional series by Celia Thomas and Robin Britton.
Inspired by childhood adventure stories like The Famous Five and Swallows and Amazons, the camping scene evokes memories of carefree and happy times. If you enjoyed re-creating their WW2 bunker scene, you’ll really appreciate their next masterpiece.
