Paper Miniatures

Playing with paper.  Rewarding fun :)  The jugs come from  Marlies of course!  Thanks Marlies, they are fun to make.  The map is of the Sydney area, it's to go in a drawer in my 3rd grandsons kitchen roombox.  Grandson no.2 made the flowers, aged 12.

  10. Thankyou all for your encouraging comments. I'm really a beginner with paper miniatures. I don't even know how to make them shabby properly, they all look too new! Help Norma!!! You are good at shabby ;)

    It is fun to play miniatures with grandchildren, we have many laughs and the boys learn to use their hands creatively. We made skateboards and razor scooters once, they specially liked that.

  11. You're doing a great job on your own! I really like those jugs, I've been shopping in the city this morning and Victoria's basement has lots of real ones, all different sizes, and 70% off!! I hadn't noticed before but they aren't painted, but papered on the outside! I was sorely tempted to buy some for the NZ cottage and altho I resisted at the time I might go back tomorrow...
