I have finally painted the tiny bricks I made months ago, and the tiny food.
The big thing outside I showed above is just too exposed to wind, direct sun to put a bunch of delicate decorations I worked a long time to make. Talked to DH about this so he has made another mini garden box that can go right in front of an east window all year. Hope I don't lose my gumption again, but I'm getting started on that as a venue for most of these cool, tiny accessories. It will have several little scenes within the whole thing. One of which will be a cook-out, BBQ. A vignette of a garden and potting area.
Oh, and I made a stained-glass window from shrinky dinks to go in a little building DH made that we thought looked like a church when he finished. Not that I started out in that direction at all, but I think it might look cool if it looked abandoned but still intact, with maybe a little overgrown graveyard near it. Don't think I've seen that done before and if I try to copy just stuff I've seen, I won't like mine as much. I can make little headstones from clay easily too.
I got the idea to shrink writing from searching shrinky dinks, and it seems like that could be applied to mini gardening somehow. Maybe the top of a patio table, sign, picture on a wall. What ideas does this give YOU reading this?
Call me crazy, but I think a tiny train running through the whole thing would be great fun!
