The dollhouse rooms haven't gone away -- in fact, they're appearing at the
Eastside Miniature Show!
On
June 5th -- that's the first Saturday in June -- I'll bring some of the rooms I created for the book
"Mixed Media Dollhouses." I'll also have some copies of the book
for sale after my talks.
I know most dollhouses are a little more... realistic, shall we say, than many of the dollhouse rooms.
Not a lot of flight plans in your usual dollhouse attic. But isn't a dollhouse really a parallel world -- tiny people in a tiny world of their own?
Remember "The Borrowers"? They made their home out of bits they "borrowed" from full-sized humans. We'll talk about how you can create your own version, incorporating family photos and repurposed bits -- you'll be a Borrower and a "borrowed-from." Whoa. That's kinda like having your cake and eating it too.
The Eastside Miniatures Show will be here:
Sons of Norway Hall
23905 Bothell-Everett Highway
