On the wings of an Angel

Many things can make for a great design but who can one-up an Angel.....no one in my book! So I sat down at my studio workbench the other day and out came this unique OOAK chair. I call it my Angel Wings Ladies Chair:



A Heavenly wood chair that's inventively stunning


Lavishly covered in a soft blue silk & antique lace


And, oh look. here's a beautiful Angel Wings Ladies Dressing Table
filled with wonderful writing supplies, perfume bottle, crystal lamp and more


Even the gold cord trim and silk ribbon bows say "Heavenly"

My miniature furniture is such a treat for me to create and there's plenty more on the way! You'll find this wonderful Angel Wings Ladies Chair and Dressing Table in  my Etsy shop , along with many other one of a kind treasures for the collector who wants to treat themself to the finest of statement pieces.

A new year and another EPIC one to create and enjoy!

Ho-Ho-Hold the ordinary and collect an original creation that will provide you with a lifetime of pleasure! 

Much needed time away from my studio over the holidays gave me the opportunity to reflect on my craft, the treasures I've created in years past and my future goals. My decision is to expand LoreleiBlu Miniatures offerings with more, and uniquely different, one of a kind miniatures from character dolls, exciting and whimsical doll house furniture, beautiful hand painted portraits and even unique musical instruments.

In the past few weeks here are just a few of my new creations -



My hand painted cherry blossom chair in antique velvet


Feast your eyes on my silk Knole Settee


Original style was 17th. century from Knole in Kent


I painted this Early American style portrait and made the custom frame


Here's my Russian 3 string Balalaika, hand-crafted & hand-painted

My renewed love for what I do is starting my year out with this grand vision...have fun and share it with collectors around the world. That's exactly what I'm doing and I hope you enjoy my expansion. Please drop in on my Etsy shop, brows around and remember, all of my creations are OOAK originals never to be duplicated, so buy what you like before it's gone....and do tell your friends!

CONTACTS: Questions - Commission Requests - Information - Feedback , just use your magic mouse and speak with me, LoreleiBlu

I'm living proof, do what you love and the right folks will love what you do....one creation at a time! Bringing  a lifetime of excitement to your miniature world.

Cheers,
LoreleiBlu

Guess Who's Coming to Town!

Christmas - Hanuka - Kwanzaa....what ever you celebrate, it's a time to share tender times with family and friends be they big or miniature size!

Here at the LoreleiBlu Miniatures studio we celebrate life and all of you, be you a collector or just a fan of dolls of all sizes and their accessories. The doll world affords us many opportunities to enjoy life, more often than just living in our day to day surroundings. In my one of a kind world I can be anyone or anything I choose to be, hang out with anyone I can imagine and create new memories that often reflect back on the past. 

My special place is filled with love and laughter and my goal is to help you create your special place, surrounded by miniature people that have big personalities, small egos and help create very happy memories for you and your loved ones.

These two friends need no introduction.........


All the way from the North Pole



Mr. and Mrs. Claus....the guests of honor

Friends of millions of folks for hundreds of years, country to country- no matter what the language, the dress or the world situation. Santa and Mrs. Claus are my one of a kind contributions to these joyous holidays. You'll find them in my Etsy shop, along with many friends from around the globe, world class OOAK miniature furniture and delightful accessories. 

And if you find something you like there's time for Santa to get it to your doll house, room box, castle or cottage before the big day! But don't wait, if you see things you must have, act fast....all of my creations are one of a kind, hand made with no molds so once it's gone, it's gone for ever!

Please take a little well deserved time during these fun filled days and drop in for a relaxed visit of my creations. I think you'll find it to be an experience that you'll want to share with your friends. And Mrs. Claus will even serve you a proper cup of tea!

The After Halloween Party!

I hope Halloween was a grand time for all. I've got to admit that candy corn is still one of my favorites...and it's been many, many years since an ad for that has been on TV or the Internet, "WOW, it's pure sugar and a true cavity creator". 

OK back to the land or reality, it's time to check out one of my sweet and favorite dolls, her name is Jane Seagrass and she's VERY BRITISH!



She's no plain Jane in her cashmere sweater, cameo and comfy slippers


Of course during WWII a lady had to look her best, even relaxing


Jane has her kitty and her tea to keep her warm until her husband returns safely

I have a love for the 1940's that spans from England to Chicago and back. Please visit my Etsy Shop and there you'll find Jane Seagrass and friends like Thea Meadowsweet, just waiting to share memories of England - past, present and future, with you. They will make your doll house, room box, cottage or castle the talk of your miniature circle.

And please bring your friends....ti's the season to share happy thoughts and if  you're like me, that's what the miniature doll world does. It helps me reflect on the good life, from when I was a little girl growing up to today. Designing and making dolls, unique one of a kind furniture and accessories, to me, is a labor of love and I'm so grateful for collectors the world over that enjoy my creations. I've been told they receive the same pleasures from them.

CONTACT: Questions - Commission  Requests - Information - Feedback. I'm just a mouse click away

Lots to be thankful for this holiday season, let's grab a cup of cheer (tea or stronger) together and make the collectors at your home or on your gift list cheer with delight. An original creation from the LoreleiBlu Studio just might do the trick.

Cheers,
LoreleiBlu

Halloween...the Crescendo!

Yep....it has arrived, the night of nights, the friends of past are here at last! And what better way to welcome them back then with candy and cookies and Kitkats, OH MY!

So I'm making this one short so we can all freshen up our makeup and go scare the heck out of the neighbors....or whoever you hang out with on this night of nights.

Wanted to take a moment to say THANKS to these old pals who scared the Holy H#@% out of us as kids many years back: 

The Three Amigos of fear and fright from the past...can you get their names right?



Then their's my creation of fear and fright today - Hecate' Dragonblood



And let us not forget the fantastic writers that took away our sleep, like Poe & King



So I'll say to you my collectors and friends of the miniature world....my creations are small in size and larger than life in spirit. Be safe and grab that moon to share with others you know, that get it.

Happy Halloween from my team at LoreleiBlu Miniatures, may you rest ever so peaceful on this night of fright.

Happy Haunting,
LoreleiBlu
