The weather has turned colder here and we've even seen some snow fly! I personally love this time of year, all tucked in like bears for the winter :) The only thing is I worry about my loved ones on the roads and also I have a really hard time getting decent pictures inside. Often I have to gear up and head outside to shoot my pictures anyway. You'll see a drop in the quality of my pictures most likely :( Either because they've been shot inside in my photocube or else I was hurrying through my pictures outside because I was freezing! Either way, no matter how good I make something it'll look worse now :( Bad pictures make a good miniature look bad too. Tis the season to freeze or provide crappy pictures.
Anyways, I caught a cold and haven't been working or blogging like usual. Did I say I loved this time of year? Ugh, mental! Hehe. I've done three different fireplaces for the holidays though, because this time of year makes me wish I had one in my real house! What could be cozier than a warm fire in a lovely fireplace during a cold winter? Nothing that I can think of. So I made three of them in three different styles: a stylish modern-more adult fireplace, a harvest home fireplace with a pie baking, and a child's theme fireplace with gifts galore :) I'll shush up and just show you :

The pictures above are of the modern adult fireplace complete with a candy cane martini and icy arrangement that looks like those in high-end stores during the holidays. There's even a little mouse all wrapped up in Christmas bows and holding a bowed candy cane :) He's so cute in person!
(Remember my pictures aren't too good right now and these are better in person by far!)
And now the home hearth fireplace:
and finally my favorite, the child's Christmas wish fireplace:
What you can't really see are the tiny cute little gingerbread men cookies and the two signs aren't easy to read in these pictures but are in person. The one with the cookies reads: "Dear Santa, We left some cookies for you to eat, so take a break and rest your feet!", and the one above the fire reads: ""Dear Santa, define good..."
That really reminded me of my own kids, hehe! I had to put it on because it makes me smile.
These are all available here in my store:

Up next will be a miniature mermaid chest decorated like a treasure trove and then some more Harry Potter minis in the near future! If you haven't seen the last movie you have to run out and buy it immediately! It was epic :)
What a cute series of mini fireplaces! Your blog is lovely too! I'm so glad I found your blog today! :-)
