Day 19

as it was started to get cold again,

well, then maybe I would knit a pair.....

but I find it to be OK photo...

Day 16

....
and I haven't done nothing yet...
it is Sunday eve and I have to decide what to do,
from all those ideas I have written down
already............

....

... and yep, I did it.
one of the ideas I have thought of for some days.
simple, and unusual...

wire, swarovski rondelle...

day 16 - swarovski crown :)

Day 15

nice sunny day here,
time to start enjoying the nature
sitting in the garden...

can be used as a table....
or a bench?!

day 14

hey, there we are,
already two weeks on making miniatures :)

being on the sea,
on an island,
often on the sailboats...
yep, you're guessing right : something to do with the sea.

todays material:
mould, airdrying clay, paints,
and steady hand....

ou...I see now I forgot to put a 1€ coin beside...
guess what?
I'll make another photo later, don't have good light now....

Day 13

13,  my luckiest lucky number :)

oh, yes, I have black cat too that crosses my path on the daily bases...

so, the sun shining, some wind coming from the sea...
no big waves though...

I felt like soon we'll need protection from the sun,
so I made sombrero hat :)

crochet  :)

day 13 - sombrero

Day 12

and I had fun again...
making furniture..
hihihi, at least the size is not a problem :)

after a drawer, I decided it is time for a table
and chair, and bench, and...and..
so I started...
and present you proudly :

round table :)
made of wire and recycled toy pokemon coin.

day 12 round table

pokemon table

Day 11

11 was always my lucky number....one of them
as I have more lucky numbers :)

I love crochet baby shoes...
and somehow,
 I got to make them even smaller...
turned them into pin, but can become key chain as well.

here we are: wool and love ;)

day 11 - mini baby shoes

... and a pair for a girl....

Day 10

I don't like bird in the cage,
not the real one, not as figure of speech.
but I made one,
my hands did it in a minute, without "me" even realizing ...
well, kinda....

so, wire again.

day 10 ~ bird in the cage

day 9

time for the next miniature.
actually, I will present you the one I did 
some weeks ago...
and since I don't have it anymore,
and don't have the special materials used,
these photos will have to do.
much bigger then the previous ones, this is the miniature nevertheless.

made of baby diapers,
baby clothes and baby toy elephant
as the present for baby boy.

day 9 - motor bike

....with elephant as the rider ....

addition to day 8

the side-top view :)

the front view

Day 8

do you keep tools(!!!) and wire in your living room?
well, I do. strange, but truth.
it is my working area at the moment,
but still...

so I found some steel wire among silver plated ones,
bent nose pliers and cutters...
gave that wire a twist, than a twist more...
and soon I had my first wire figure ever.
sure, it was a miniature.
as was the second, third...
yeah, I made quite a few wire figure miniatures,
and I am showing you the first one I made.

day 8 - wire bike

I would like to show you more photos, from the front and the side,

to show you how 3D it is,

but couldn't  load them :(

maybe next time ?!

till then, bye :)

Day 7

...and today :
something simple and quick.
I imagine there is much more to be learned
about making miniature furniture,
here my first try....

material used: only what I saw around me,
match boxes, magazine which I used as " paint",
and off course some beads, and glue  and scissors :)

it took me less time to make this drawer
 then to write this, hihihi

day 7 drawer

Day 6

today, I had sooooo much fun making the miniature.
so much, that I kept making more variations the whole day.
Yessss !
the WHOLE day.

:)

used are my favorite materials in jewelry making:
love, idea, beads and wire....and very good sight :)

 day 6 ~ the first two gekko brothers

..and there came the 3rd

the mini miniature gekko :)

the gekko family gathered for the family photo :)

Day 5

with EASTER at our door,
here one project you can surely
make for yourself and your dear ones :)

crochet with wool, stuffing
pattern on request :)

day 5 - easter bunny

...and his family...just the jellow 

one turned his back on us...never mind, so we can see his tail :)

Day 4

the cut fresh flowers are not really "my thing"...
but from time to time, I enjoy making something
with artificial ones...

so for today's project,
inspired by Bidermayer art in deco,
my choice is this bouquet :)

materials used are textile flowers, wire, beads and ribbon .

and...this 365 adventure does take me in some new waters...
I am starting to edit my photos...and I guess,my skills at 
taking the photos of miniatures will improve :)

day 4 - bouquet

Day 3

Hi again !

I keep seeing the possibilities of this challenge :)
not only the miniature objects, 
but even more what this kind of  daily commitment
does to one. 

today I'm into the wool, once more...
and surely not the last time :)

day 3 - mini money purse

I imagine it to be perfect as the key chain...inside that coin you might need

Day 2

it's interesting how the mind works...

I'm noticing all the stuff around me I could reproduce on the small scale.

maybe cause it's just the beginning of my adventure, but ideas keep coming...I started to write them down....in different notice books, lol
 think, I will make ma a notebook only for this project :)
yes, that sounds like a good idea...

I already had more projects, but imagine it's the same for all of us creative ones :)

this one won for today...inspiration came from the nature...it's like  a real spring here on Murter island:)

day 2  - springtime wreath

Being a beader, I took some metalic beads, strung them on the wire, added textile mini flower 

and there you are

Day 1

by the definition :  a miniature is a copy of something that is much smaller than the original. (noun)

DAY 1

well, I did it!!!!!!!

the first one done :)

The Beginning

 

the beginning is the most sensible time :)

enjoying the freedom of the uncreated

I am challenging myself to create specificly...small versions of things=miniatures :)
