Miniature Magic

Miniatures are magic at times.  Wednesday started out as an overcast gray kind of day here. All damp and muffled outside.  I looked out the window and veered for the workroom instead.

I have 2 projects at the present that I have been bouncing between.  One is the Orchid Hill House and the other is a florist shop.  I am trying to get the florist shop down to exhibit it this fall and the deadline is approaching fast.

I have been doing fall flower arrangements of late (miniature of course).  The wonderful autumn foliage colors this year have kept me inspired.  I have had a ball doing them!  Some for the project, some as gifts for friends and even an overflow into my Etsy shop (the same name as this blog) ———–

IT WAS MAGIC!!!!

So thinking about how much fun I had with this simple project and wanting to celebrate several things………………………………………
