Dolls for dolls: I have a number of the ones by Carol Spence Sellner (a personal favorite) and some from other artisans. The page showing these is: Carol |
½ Scale Doll Molds: Ellen in the UK wanted to know who sells and ships molds there - and wants 1/2 scale - I'm sure House of Caron has some molds in that scale - their web site is: http://www.houseofcaron.com Paulette |
Tile Sealer: You might try using Deft Semi-Gloss spray on your tiles to seal them. Cut the tiles to fit your room then spray them before you glue them in. The more coats, the shinier they will be. I use two coats on the tile floors in my Southwest room boxes. Spray evenly and not too heavy. Several thin coats are better than 1 heavy coat. Let dry completely between coats. Sealing before grouting prevents the grout and water from penetrating the tiles and it also eases clean up of the grout. When the grout is completely dry, usually about 24 hours, you can spray one more time to bring the shine back to the tiles. Spencer |
Punches: Besides Wal-Mart and Michael's, a minier suggested an office supply store or a teachers supply store. Here are three Website addresses for punches given to me by a number of our miniers. They are worth taking a look at. http://www.hankypankycrafts.com/home.htm Dolores |
Murals: Try a wallpaper book and look at the borders. I have a border in my real house that I used as a mural over chair rail in a Colonial house. It is 8 inches tall including a little plain border on each edge. But I cut it down for my house. Martha Simpson |

Potatoes: I make russet potatoes from white FIMO, poke a few little holes with a needle tool for eyes and bake at 250 degrees for 12 minutes. For the coating, I use ground brown chalk. Just rub the chalk over a piece of screen. When I put them in a pot with Envirotex (casting resin), they then look wet andunder water. Different colored chalks have a lot of uses. I've scraped many over a screen and store in one of those 12-section plastic boxes. Ruth |
Working grandfather's clocks: As someone pointed out Orvin Fjare does make some beautiful grandfather's clocks which are quite pricey. I have one (not for sale) in my dollhouse which you can see at http://www.spminiatures.com/house/livingroom.html. There are working grandfather's clocks that sell for about $70 which I think are in Dee's catalog. Carol |
Glue syringe/Monoject: To view or purchase a Monoject glue syringe with a rubber stopper go to http://www.nh.ultranet.com/~smallife/Tools.html scroll down to Glues & Applicators and wait for the photo to load. There are tweezers on the page also. Sorry, no fancy shopping cart on this homemade site! You have to use e-mail, fax, carrier pigeon or the phone. Pam & Pete Boorum |
working grandfather clock: I found a web site for a craft store called Crafts, Etc. that has a working grandfather clock. They are temporarily out of stock, but maybe they will get some in soon. It sells for $24.99. The web page address is: http://catalog.craftsetc.com/viewProduct.cfm?item_id=378278. I just placed an order with them today on the telephone, and they were very nice to deal with. They have quite a few miniatures listed under the crafts section of their catalog. I hope this helps the person who was looking for the grandfather clock. Terry T. in WV |
