Another corset

I have not much to tell you, I'm still working on some sets, a lot of sets......
But I like to thank you all for your lovely comments on my previous posts, I saw that I have over 600 followers now, so I have to make something for a giveaway soon.

Have a nice week, * marlies
*

I was thinking........

Could I make a set in 1:24 scale........?
Yes, it can, it is very small, but it does.......
And the bra can open!

The lace I used for finishing is a little too wide, but is there any narrower lace or trim?
This is the finest lace I have...

I used my ruler to see the size, it is in cm.
Sorry, the pictures are not so good, it is very colt and dark weather outside.

Little one

When I was watching everything I did for my ladies shop, I came across this corset.
I made this a while ago, and I thought, could this also in 1:24.....?


So I give it a try and here it is,

I think its cute!

Here they are together,

Yes, the backside too!

*

Need a size more?

Not all women have the same size, therefore this set for a bigger size.
I'm still working on the lingerie, and trying more other models too.
These cups are slightly larger and more closed to support the breasts, the panties have a bit of effort to correct the belly. I do not know if this are the right words for this.

More.....

These I have to finish,

Thank you all for the lovely compliments, I feel very honored !

There are some of you asking if I sell these sets, Yes I do, but I'm working on some orders now, but if they are done, I will put some on my etsy, so you have to be patient.

So, I have to work one more day and I'm free to do minies!! YIPPEE!!

*

Some more

Next week I have a week vacation, I'm looking forward to that!
In the little spare time I have I did some more lingerie.


*

What am I doing?

I'm trying to make shoes for the ladies shop, I thought I start with slippers, which look not so hard....... it really is very small!
I do not have the right leather for the soles, I used suede, this keeps fraying.

It seems that the giveaway of Geneviève is lost in the mail, so I'm of to make a new set for her, luckily she waits patiently.
*

More lingerie

I did make another set, this time I'm realy happy with it,

this one is made from differend old laces and is just the look that I wanted to have it. The pantie is just right now, not to big.

I got some mail, asking about my laces and fabrics.

Here are the 3 laces I used for this set. It is realy old and has some staining and discoloration.

1* From this lace I only used the fabric, it was a real measuring, because the fabric was not wide enough. For axample, the panties is out of 5 pieces, but you do not see anything of that.
2* This lace I used for the cups and the top of the panties.
3* This one piping and finishing.

Do you know who this is?

This picture was taken on vacation in France.
He is here for a sleep over, so I'm off, playing with him before he is going to bed.
*

Lingerie

Yesterday I had some time to do something about miniatures, I'm still in the lingerie.
I created a new model bra, not the way I always did.
It had to seem like a real bra is.....

I'm not completely satisfied, must still consider how to make the back closure, there is a pin in now. The panties may be a little more sexy, which is very very solid now.
But it will do in a drawer of the ladies shop.
Need to make some more, it is fun to do!
*

Thank you for all your kind reactions on my give away, it is fun to do, so I will do it again!

*

Time

I just need more time......
It's been a while, huh? I was busy in the house of our daughter who was 3 weeks on vacation, tomorrow they come home. Then I can cuddle Dax again, I missed him.

I promised a few people a few things and they're almost ready, I hope that after the weekend I can bring them to the postoffice. I can not show you any pictures yet, then it is not a suprise.

Now everyone is on holiday, I have to work more days, so at night I am so tired that I often fall asleep on the couch.......
Now I'm so terribly behind in blogging, sometimes my lack of energy left to respond to your blog. I'm sorry about that!
I saw that my number of followers just keep growing....... It is al over 500!
I really think it's time for a giveaway, I've never done it ..........
Why not? Very simply, I dare not..

So leave a message and maybe you win one of my give-aways, on August 17th, my birthday, I will announce three winners.
I wish you all good luck and hopefully I see you soon with a visit to your blogs!

Arrived

A few days ago the giveaway from Linda, http://une-petite-folie.blogspot.com/, arrived!
It is a beautiful miniature book of Linda's french house, my petite maison.
The book was made by Maria, http://ilcucchiainomagico.blogspot.com/, and it is so beautiful made, you can realy read!

At first I could not believe I won that beautiful book, I can not discribe how happy I am with it!
I know I am a lucky winner.
It will have a place in my dollhouse shop, that I started a while ago........
I can not show you any pictures of it now, I took the front off to work on that, now the shop is a little dusty......
This is the last picture I took from it,

but with my beautiful present, all the more reason to go further and finished it.
Thank you Linda for this very beautiful giveaway, I am very happy with it!
*

I'm realy sad......

I can not stay logged in by blogger, I have to sign in everytime.........
Sometimes I do not follow any blog............
And worst of all........ I can not leave a comment on your blogs.......
When I do, I have to choose an identity, but he does not recognizes me anymore......

What can I do? I wait and see, maybe it goes away just like last time......

Hope to see you soon on your blog!

playtime

Maybe the girl does not want to bake,



she wants to play with her dollhouse and unpack her new furniture!

My tray

This morning I saw a workshop of a breakfast tray from Juli at:http://miniaturebyjuli.blogspot.com/
That reminded my of a table I did some mosaic on, some time ago.



I had to start my old computer to find the pictures of it!



Here are some details.

At that time, I thought it would be nice to make a workshop of it........
I did made the pictures............. but I never finished the workshop........

But I will share it with you with the pica's that I do have:

* It starts with eggshells, wash them and then paint in the colors you like, sometimes its better to do a couple of layers.

* Then add glossy varnish on them and let dry. Then break the shells into very tiny pieces.
I took a ready tray and painted in a matching color,


* Draw a design, think of a simple decor,



* Then start with puzzle the shells in to your decor,



* It looks no good, but it will be better,







* If your decor is ready, you can fill the background with a mathing color, try to fill every space,





* This is what it looks like

And then I did not take pictures of the finished tray.......

I've searched, but I can not find it, I can't remember where I put it.....
But with the pica's I have it must be a peace of cake! ;)

* You can now cover it with grout, be sure it is very fine, better you sifting and use only the fine grout. Gypsum powder is what I used.

I hope it is a bit obvious, Google helped me with translation, but he gives not always the word I'm looking for.
If you have any questions you can always mail me or leave a message.

Hope you like it and you will try sometime,

see you again!

Little baking

Sometimes a have to do something else, I'm busy with a swap and some more, but I can't help myself, then there is something in my mind and then I have to try to make it.
This is a little baking set for a little girl,




now I can continue with my duties.
Thank you for your sweet messages on my previous post, also there are still new followers "WELCOME"
and I can not even keep up your blogging......... sometimes I feel guilty about that...
I need more time!
*

As promised

Yesterday I said I would show you today more items out off paper, this is a wildcrown, I don't know if you call it that way........ This one is for wall hanging.




This is out off paper too, the hooks are bent nails!

Then I saw this picture on the internet,

And I made this out off it

I made ​​him a little used,

And thats what you can do with it, you can put in other stuff too.......

This one is also out off paper, see you next time!
*

Paper again

In some way I am addicted to paper and paperboard, you may have seen that jar I made ​​recently? And when I'm busy doing paper stuff, I can not stop,then I have to try out everything in my mind.......... is that addiction?

This time a tried a plantstand and a boiler............

They look very nice, but there can still be improved, did you see the lid can come off?

I also made a bathtub for a little girl to bath her dolls, but this one a show you later.
See you next time, I realy need to do something on my ladiesshop again, no more distractions!!!!

Ultimate Dog Tease

You have to watch this......... it's so pathetic.......... ahh

I'm still here

Firstly I thank everyone for the kind and nice comments on my previous post. I was working on the Mothersday-swap Dale organized, but it is on his way now! So I can't show you any pica's of that... But I'm very nervous if my swappartner, Patty, will like it.

While I was surfing on the internet yesterday, I saw this picture

I don't now where it was. But I liked the jar on the table, so I thought I give it a try,

Here is mine, thats what I've been doing.

And here is another one!
See you!

a little update

Today was a beautiful sunny day and I had some time to do something. I made some shelves and drawers in my closed, a tedious job, but it must fit.

The entire cabinet is made of cardboard, only on the front I used some thin wooden strips. In the corners are mirrors, I want to set a small mannequin in there, on both sides.

I made a start with the front of the store, but it did not turned out the way I want, so I have to think about that.

Does somebody know why you can not click on my picture?
