WHAT A DIFFERENCE!

These are photos taken 2 days later!  

What a contrast!!!

WILD FIRES!!!

Western Montana is shrouded in smoke today!
 The sky has a yellow tinge to it and looking both East and West there are no mountains to be seen!

The smell of burning wood is permeating everything.

May God protect His wild-life 

& the firefighters.

  

"SHABBY" PRESSED-BACK CHAIRS

Today's mail brought these extraordinary Bespaq chairs 

that have been "shabby-ed" by miniature artisan, Matthew Weston.

I adore them!

The featured doll is a Marcia Backstrom reproduction.

These items will be used  in a "shabby" bakery.
Absolutely beautiful!!

"OLD-WORLD" WINE CABINET

I've just returned from a two-week road-trip
to the East Coast.

L@@k what I found when I got home!

[Be sure to click on the photo to enlarge]

This "Old-World" wine cabinet was designed,
and created by miniature artisan, Matthew Weston.
Most unique.

The sweet little girl in green is a Bonnie Justice doll.

The rose-laden wedding cake is a creation by Christina @ Majestic Miniatures.
So beautiful.

Once I get things organized,
I will once again engage myself
in my many miniature projects.

The weather is humid, but fair,
and I'm eager to find my way out to the workshop!!

TWO VERY "SPECIAL" LITTLE CHAIRS

~ Okay, my camera finally has a new photo-card ~

Here are two charming armchairs 

that I have chosen to "showcase" tonight...

Both were hand-painted by talented artisan Sue Ayers.

The detailing is phenomenal! 

 Refreshing daisies!

Sweet rosebuds!

[Don't forget to enlarge the photos to see the details!]

The colors are clear, bright & alive.

My plan is to "create" a Mary Engelbreit house 

in which I will incorporate these wonderful miniatures.

Too cute!

IT IS JUNE 2014 ALREADY!!!

[Don't forget to click on photo to enlarge!]

These are just three of my latest little-people.  

Aren't they precious?

Well, as you probably didn't know,
I've been "locked out" of my blog 

ever since before Christmas 2013!
 

Just this past week I was actually able
to get myself back in.  

I am so thrilled.

  

Now, to pick up where I left off.

  

If that were not excitement enough, 

I located "the link" to the new site that I put together:

http://iamminteriors.blogspot.com/

 but I'm pretty sure that I will abandon that one 

in favor of this original blog!  

So now, the best is yet to come.
