ROSE gardening in Maine

Southeast, MA(Zone 6b)

Really nice work. Such attention to detail. Do you make the dolls clothes? They look very much in the time of the scene. Thanks for showing us this interesting hobby and I bet a lot of imagination and research goes into these little snapshots in time, a very nice job.

Incredible, Brigitte!! That is amazing work......I cannot believe you actually made all of this!! The details are fantastic. How do you make the labels on the cans and boxes that tiny and so realistic? I just love looking at these. Very impressive.

Hi there,
don't think I have forgotten ...NO...I have just been a Jack of all trades especially lately,driving everyone several times a week,app.shopping etc.etc.tomorrow it's my husbands turn.Time flies and I am NOT having fun,at least not gardening.However I did plant some of my own daylily crosses a few days ago and went to buy some seeds today on my way way back from town so that's a start.
***
My bakery has not changed too much lately because I am also working on a Grocery store.
Here is the first picture,a few more to come tonight since I promised.

If what I have been enjoying is indeed all created by you I believe your story and doll houses could be published. This is the nicest home crafted work I have seen in quite a few years.

A M A Z I N G !! Such attention to detail is commendable.

Good morning all of you,
thank you for the compliments.
My work has been published nationally before when I created one of a kind handsculpted Santas 16-22 inches tall.Then I also made the apples,oranges,cookies,toys etc.etc.
**
yes I have made all of the food,other than a couple of trades.Made the crates out of the back of a antique picture frame so I'll have the patina.

The Boletus Mushrooms I really enjoyed making and also the Champignons which when you see them close up have the gills.
LOVED making the peaches.
There is so much more to go into the store I want to make.The cauliflower and red cabbage are in the back on the left.

I also tried my hand with graphics in Microsoft Word 2007 and made some wonderful boxes the last few days.Something entirely new to me...so much to learn !

Maybe I'll do more potatoes today ? also 'need' :-) some more hams etc.etc.

Want to finish it soon so I can watch my seeds sprout .Planted some of my own DL crosses the last few days.
Thanks again.

I likely saw and read the published works. I'm not growing any younger therefore forget I will.....or something like that. LOL Absolutely the finest work I have seen in one spot.

I was a well known doll doctor and for years thought a room like you made done up with doll doctoring tools and minatures of all types would be a hoot. Have been published too and have published "how to restoration" video now owned by my previous partner.

Gardiner, ME(Zone 5a)

OH HOW interesting !!
A doll doctor,this is so wonderful to hear something like that in the time of throw-a-way.
!
I have several antique Bisque dolls in need of restoration,costuming,wigging and what have you.Did you write for Dollmaker or Contemporary doll magazine ?

Some of my Santa's were published by 'Early American Life'.Each year they pick the Best Santas and 2 of mine were choosen.Another important one was Full page ,full color in the gallery section of contemporary doll magazine.Numerous Doll show awards etc.:-)
