I sure am pleased to be back to doing what I love and do best.........creating OOAK miniature dolls and dollhouse furnishings that set the tone for making your treasured collection even more special!
My days out of the LoreleiBlu studio have given me time to re-charge and appreciate my family of friends and collectors the world over. And to remember how fortunate I am to have such a great supporting cast.
For years Olde World and Shabby Chic have been two favorite styles that move me and it's in those themes that I proudly present two of my latest dollhouse miniature hand crafted beds.
Anastasia - Olde World Bed
I created the Anastasia as a One Of A Kind (OOAK) totally hand painted 1/12th scale dollhouse bed. Painted in a black lacquer base with beautifully painted flowers and fine gold details.
The Anastasia is dressed in rich silk and fine cotton fabrics, has antique handmade tatted lace on the duvet and features a real fur throw along with six lovely pillows. I've made them so you are free to rearrange and present the comfort and look you're going for. I've also added two beautiful bands of purple silk cord to embellish the base and enhance it's olde world charm.
Now if Shabby Chic is your cup of tea.........feast your eyes on The Georgiana:
Georgiana - A Shabby 4-Poster Chic Beauty
I started by painting the Georgiana a lovely sage green in crackle finish and then I distressed it to replicate wear. The customized headboard is hand painted with roses and a blue ribbon swag. I then overlaid a wash to give it the right aged patina of a very old and well loved piece of furniture.
To achieve the Shabby Chic look I was going for I dressed it in a soft cotton duvet and sheets with a mix of antique and vintage lace. The throw I created at the foot of the bed is from a piece of original ladies handmade lace collar from the 1800's. It is made with silk thread and is as soft as a whisper! To complete the bed dressings there are 6 lovely pillows embellished with silk ribbon (complimenting the headboard), silk cord and antique lace.
Both beds are delicate beauties filled with creative flair and lovely details. They are perfect for your special miniature bedrooms, room box or cottage.
I'm delighted to return and show you just a few of the many new projects that have been on the LoreleiBlu studio drawing board, one by one each will become reality this year. These two newest creations can be found looking for new homes in my Etsy Shop LoreleiBlu Miniatures along with a variety of fully poseable miniature dolls and other OOAK art treasures. My team invites you and your collector friends to stop in often, select your favorite pieces and make them part of your miniature worlds.
Here's to a year of Health, Happiness and Cheer,
LoreleiBlu
