Dollhouse News (23.4.2007)

As many of my friends know, I have developed a new hobby in the past year: dollhouses and miniatures. It is a natural continuation of my life-long handicrafts addiction. Not long time ago when I was sitting in a train, an acquaintance happened to walk past and noticed me stitching a detailed dollhouse carpet – and he commented: “Didn´t know you do this “old womens” stuff…” That was a good opportunity to educate him that miniatures are actually a serious hobby called tripitism!

So, yesterday night I did some internet shopping and bought the following: a grand piano, cutlery and crocery, saucepans, a full bathroom set etc. My principle is to make everything by myself – furniture, food, textiles, lampshades and so – however I have also learnt that certain things you just have to buy.
