Pumpkin fairy homes

I've been taking a bit of a rest lately and have not been making as many miniatures as usual. I thought I'd get my rest during the lovely hot summer before the rush of Autumn, Halloween and Christmas orders arrive. I've spent my time off on holiday in the gorgeous county of Dorset in southern England and also in lovely picturesque North Devon. Devon and Dorset are my favourite counties and every time I visit each one I start dreaming about buying a romantic country cottage with a thatched roof, huge gardens and views of the rolling hills in the countryside. Reality soon creeps back as I begin my journey home on the M5 towards the Midlands. Why is the journey on the M5 always so torturous? It seems to go on forever and there are always hold ups of some kind extending the travelling time. Anyway apart from the M5 I had two fantastic trips away and I'm now feeling totally refreshed and happy and can't wait to get back to my sculpting.

Shortly before my holiday I created some new fairy houses (see photo above). These fairy houses are a little different to the ones I usually have listed in my Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/fizzyclaret?ref=si_shop The new ones are miniature pumpkin fairy houses and are decorated with tiny roses, leaves and toadstools. They can be used as gifts, ornaments, cake toppers or can be used in terrariums and are perfect for the coming Fall/Autumn season.

I have also started listing new miniature dollhouse items on ebay again and hope to have many more items listed over the next few weeks. To visit please click the link http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/fizzyclaret/m.html?_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
