As retirement gradually hoves into view on the horizon, finding the right time for my final 'set-piece' home workshop pack has been, as our little granddaughter is fond of saying, "a bit tricky.
After all I still have a few years left before I hang up my dollmaking apron for good, and I'm still firmly entrenched in the process of downsizing my workroom and restructuring Tower House Dolls to accommodate my changing goals. However, if I leave it too long, I suspect I'll run out of steam, and possibly, many of the wonderful kits which I wish to include.
So over the past few weeks, I revisited my working sample, and all the boxes of things which I'd already made, and I've been gradually putting it all together.
As this is my last ever complete home workshop pack and a celebration of my 30 years as a miniature dollmaker, I really want it to be extra special, and I hope I've succeeded.
Tah dah......
Workshop pack will contain kits to make everything shown here... plus more! |
There are a lot of special little details...stonework arched alcove with feature glazed window, 5 display shelves and etched floorboards
For the interior, there is a choice of two different Small Interiors wallpapers, which are pretty and delicate, so as not to overpower the minis on display within the vignette.
Choose either pink and blue..... |
....or soft sage green and pink |
The vignette... painted and decorated, with skirting boards in place |
The table fits neatly into the alcove, under the window |
Throughout the display is a variety of dollmaking themed minis... from a wonderful vintage sewing machine....
Vintage sewing machine kit |
.... to boxes of doll's heads and bodies!
As well as all the paraphernalia a dollmaker might need.
A selection of fabric bolts |
Dress form with dress |
Wig stand with wig and jewelled tiara, jar of paint brushes..... |
Cards of silk ribbons.... |
Selection of jewellery and accessories... choose between gold and silver |
Sewing equipment |
Haberdashery... buttons, cards of lace, reels of silk ribbon, skeins of trimmings, and 12 pretty boxes with lids to store and display |
I also wanted to include a special new doll, to accompany this kit and here she is......
This kit comes complete with colour coordinated box with vintage illustrated lid |
I designed the pretty flower-sprigged fabric for her jacket and had it professionally printed onto the finest silk twill.
Starting with
a jointed porcelain doll just 1 3/4” tall, you will make her silk underwear,
lace socks and dainty silk shoes. She wears a silk and lace dress and a
flower-sprigged silk jacket edged with vintage lace trim.
Soft ringlet curls tumble from beneath her sweet boater-style hat, which is
decorated with braid and silk trim.
As a final finishing touch, make a matching box with vintage illustrated
lid!
The doll kit is available in a choice of colours.
Blue |
Green |
Peach |
Pink |
