Between having my grandchildren for a week and traveling the next I have not had much time to get into my minis or posting any blogs. I have some posts coming up very soon. But in the meantime, I thought you might enjoy a little mini humor. Take a look at these and enjoy. :-)

Look at some of my goodies I got to take home. There is pine, mahogany, basswood and some types of wood I never even heard of before! |

Woodworking in miniature
On my second visit, I met a man who just happened to mention he made mini furniture.
I was intrigued and asked a few questions. Turns out he has his own workshop and is not only a master carpenter, but a licensed contractor. So this man knows houses...big and little ones!
He invited me to his shop. OMG! What fun.
I saw some of the tools and other equipment he uses for minis.
OK here is what I saw:
