Valentine's Day in The Barn

For those of you who having been waiting patiently for a post on miniatures...
I've created a little Valentine's Day scene upstairs in the barn.
Enjoy!
 
 














 
White Roses made by Sabiha, everything else made by me.
 
Hope you all have a lovely Valentine's Day!

Easter at the Barn

I've had a lot of fun making Easter things for the barn this month.




















Easter Basket a gift from Kim Saulter.



Jacket with tiny butterfly buttons made by Sylvia.



Beautiful bunny sign made by Sylvia.

Hope you enjoyed that little Easter excursion.

Wishing you all a very Happy Easter!

A little peek in the barn!

Of course there's still a LOT more to go in the barn but I thought you might like to see a little of what I've been making.

I saw a shelf like this at the garden centre but I couldn't afford it in real life so I made it in miniature!



The rusty bench was originally white metal. I wasn't going to make it quite so rusty but I always get a little carried away when it somes to rust.

The 'Bistrot de Paris' box I made from a kitset.

Katie made the basket which I filled with pillows.
I decided the basket needed a rusty stand so I made one.

I made this little cupboard from some painted sticks that someone at my club was throwing out.

I haven't fixed the door in properly yet but I love the way it turned out.

Just look at that sunlight coming through the window!
Unfortunately it's the last of the summer sun, there's a definite autumnal chill in the air these days (I'm not too happy about that!).

A little Christmas in the barn!

Many of you have been very patiently waiting to find out what was going in the barn.
The barn is going to be a shop!
A shop that sells vintage goods.
It's nowhere near filled up or finished but I just couldn't resist adding a little Christmas!








Birdhouse from Katie.
Rusty wreath from Susanne.




Vintage bauble wreath - fun but fiddly!
Somehow I always manage to send the beads flying everywhere whenever I make one!

Plenty more decorating to do!
Loads more things to make!
Lots more fun to have!

Merry December!
