Friday Flowers in Miniature

No time to take photographs of real flowers this week, I've been busy getting ready for my last miniatures show of the year. The Kensington Dollshouse Christmas Festival. I'm exhibiting this time with just my kits, the picture above shows Echeveria plants made from one of my 12th scale kits.
Busy packing bags and I'll be loading the car after lunch, then off up to London this afternoon to unload so it's a bit more leisurely tomorrow morning.

Hoping all my American friends had a Happy Thanksgiving......next stop Christmas. I'm going to start thinking about that next week!

Have a wonderful weekend

Friday Flowers

When I'm taking photographs for my portfolio it often takes one thing to spark off an idea. I found these little round bottom vases at a local home decoration shop, I knew they would have to stand in sand and I also knew I wanted the lightest of flowers to sit in them, so the idea was percolating and a trip to the florist's wholesaler turned up these round bottomed test tubes strung on a wire......serendipity.

A bunch of Gypsophila bought on the way home, a branch of twisted willow rescued from my workroom, white china and napkins from my props cupboard and it all came together.

Have a lovely weekend

Friday Flowers

The last of the Pumpkins, or perhaps these are Squash? Anyway a beautiful faded grey/green with the antique shades of Amnesia Roses, the fascinating seed heads of Scabious and a semi dried Hydrangea Flower.

Reminds me of dusty old books, faded photographs and vintage linens washed a million times.

Have a wonderful weekend
