Dolls House and Miniature Scene  |  December 2016 (Iss 271)
It’s Christmas! Well almost Christmas and we’re counting down to the big day by flooding you with ideas, inspiration, festive houses, room boxes and projects! Inspiration begins with a look at Jo Bevilacqua’s amazing 1/12th scale Christmas trees and decorations, they’re so glitzy and glamourous you’ll definitely be in the mood to deck your own (miniature) halls with boughs of holly.
For those of you looking to be productive and craving Christmas miniatures, look no further as there are 8 projects for you to tackle including a pair of elves on page 7, a selection of Arthur Rackham illustrations on page 20 and a Nutcracker soldier on page 42.
That’s about it from me for this month. I shall return next month with another amazing selection of miniatures including projects, features, reviews and a brand new series of articles entitled ‘The Time Capsule’. Whichever miniature era fascinates you there’s something in this series for you as Sadie Brown cracks open the time capsule to find out more about the periods we obsess with in small scale, beginning with the medieval era.
