Windup to Spooky Town!

It was just the other day that one of my collectors asked me where I come up with my ideas to create from the bazaar to the beautiful and all things in between. My answer.....my dreams lead my way!

I'm very fortunate to have a vivid imagination.....have had since I was a kid and I put it to work for me every time I sit at my studio console to create!. From the fantasy side of life to the real 40's and 50's I enjoy building my dreams in clay and then dressing them with lovely fabrics that compliment and tell the story of the character.

Here's another example....meet the one and only (drum roll please): 



I present Vampire Martine Ravenblood


From her Mad Hatters Hat to her micro bead button boots


Dessed in fine silk with all the special touches


Hair of black and silver viscose with removable hat and crystal topped cane 

Martine Ravenblood is another very special OOAK Vampire Witch that I so enjoyed creating for your special doll house, room box, castle or witch's cottage. She is fully posable and dressed with the flair and style that my miniature dolls are known for. To see more pictures of Martine and to enjoy cruising my Etsy Shop just waive and click your magic mouse here.

Happy Haunting,

Why Not....I Would!


How much is too much? So you have multiple doll houses and room boxes...me too! And you feel like there's always room for a new friend to move into your miniature world...me too! No matter how hard you rationalize you know that the old "just one more" will become "I just need a bigger space to move my new collections into".

Well "what the dickens" you say.....me too! When it comes to collecting miniatures there's nothing "mini" about wanting to grow your treasures and keep your world fresh and fun for all to enjoy. Having said that I'd like to introduce you to a Witch that's full of wonder and excitement.

Pleased to introduce you to Sorcha Blackthorn and her cat, Raven............



Sorcha is a trend setter - dressed and ready to fly


Everything about her from hat to her matching frock says regal



Beautiful auburn hair....Sorcha and Raven will delight


And her golden & black shoes are made of the finest silk and black lace

It's almost Halloween and what better way to put "spooky but classy" into your doll house, room box, castle or cottage. Hauntingly beautiful wouldn't you say. And in addition to Sorcha....there's Phaedra Floxglove, Hecate' Dragonblood and Raven Nightshade hanging out at my haunts, all fully poseable and guaranteed to be one of a kind LoreleiBlu creations.

And because Halloween is so special to me, and many of you have said the same, you'll also find  Witches furniture including a really cool Witches spell table, a love seat, bed, settee, and plenty of Witch's accessories in my Etsy shop They are all ready to ship so if you make your move now you'll have plenty of time to stir up your very own special coven of creative fun.

A haunting we will go.........together!

Living the Dream

I had one of those "pinch yourself" moments the other day. Owning my own miniature doll studio and creating what I like when I want to is a dream come true! Sure I work hard and long at times but hey, who's luckier than me to do what I love and mix it up as play time with a purpose! 

How many lucky ones do you know like that....love what they do, have a passion for what they do and keep inventing miniature art creations that others enjoy and collect? It's a blessing, and I'm so very thankful for it.

Now I'm not sure how many other artists feel this way but I'll bet if we took a survey, the ones that do, look at their talent as it's meant to be used - to make others happy....even giddy at time! 

Here's a sample of two of my latest creations:



My version of a Witches Spirit Table


Gather round and let's see what goes bump in the night


And every Proper Witch needs a special place to retire


The Witches Bed is made of fine gray tufted silk, lush cotton and vintage lace


Witches Chair and Spirit Table....another OOAK fun project


And The Witches Bed to lay your head

See what I mean...mystical one of a kind creations that make me, and discerning collectors the world over, smile and will cast a grand spell over any doll house, room box, castle or cottage. To see more of my fun treasures visit my Etsy Shop today and lay claim to what you fancy.

Here's to more fun times together. Remember to treat yourself with things that make you happy!

Once Upon A Time.......

Many years ago a wise old Southern Auctioneer told my husband to "Buy Wood". He added that antique furniture would never go out of style in the right circles. 

In the miniature doll collector world, "Buy What You Love", is the saying, especially if it's a one of a kind treasure never to be duplicated, like all of mine are! I pride myself on the fact that all of my original creations would always be done by my hands with no molds of any kind used and no "off  the rack" costumes or identical fabrics or patterns repeated on my dolls

And that's how LoreleiBlu Miniatures came to be years back and will remain as so. Now a few hundred creations later I still have lots of ideas on characters that jump in my head and can't wait to be introduced to my loyal collector friends, the world over.

I'd like to introduce you one of my newest friends, Countess Ellen:


Dressed in High Victorian Style


Beautifully outfitted in antique fabrics & lace from the 1880's


The Countess even enjoys custom shoes made of vintage French silk ribbon


Countess Ellen is fully poseable and comes with my Certificate of Authenticity. She presents refined features from her beautifully styled period  hair, down to her lovely shoes and knit stockings. She will class up any dolls house, room box, cottage or castle that she visits...think about how she'll enjoy relaxing in your world!

Make some time for yourself this week to visit my Etsy Shop and enjoy all the fun and fantasy my studio of miniature creations has to offer. Pop in for a proper cup of tea and a chat with me LoreleiBlu.

CONTACTS: Questions - Commission Requests - Information - Feedback - reach out to me and build our friendship.

Enjoy what summer we have left and remember to "Buy What You Love". Who's better than you....treat yourself!

Cheers,
LoreleiBlu

It's Summer, it's hot out....great time re-focus on a Favorite Time Of The Year

I'm energized by the adventures I've experienced and shared with friends in England a few weeks ago and now I get to share them with you...through creating more of the wonderful miniature dolls, furniture and accessories that LoreleiBlu Miniatures is know for. I'm lucky...indeed!

So let's start here with Fantastic - Fun furniture that will make any haunted doll house, room box, castle,  or cottage perfectly fitting for the most glamorous of Witches.



Witches Spell Table


Fully Loaded with everything a proper witch needs


Hauntingly Delicious


All these hand made treasure come with this table


Cast a spell - we won't tell

I've been thinking about all the accessories that would be needed to fill up the spell table and I believe that I've left nothing to chance here. I even designed and included the ZX-210W Turbo Broom for speed of travel as your witch works her spells and spreads her magic throughout your realm. This OOAK spell table is ready to brighten your miniature world if you act fast.

Visit my Etsy Shop for enchanting Witches, Wardrobes, Furniture , Snow Queens, Angry Housewives and even Goth Alice. All of my creations are one of a kind, hand made, designed by me, LoreleiBlu, and come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
