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.

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.

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

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.

Time to create your Spring House

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you.....green tea for everyone! 

Happy to report the weather around most of the country says we're almost out of the woods, tundra or what ever has been challenging your commute!  I've been creating away in the BluMoon Studio and having quite a bit of fun designing new dolls and other one of a kind treasures with a flair.

Please let me introduce my Rose, the lady in waiting, to you:



Beautiful in her vintage cotton and lace night gown


This Mother to be can't wait for Spring


Rose rests in her shabby chic rocker with her feet up


Some lucky collector of Rose will also enjoy her rocking chair and footstool


Along with her baby's christening gown, quilt, matching pillow and toys


Beautiful Rose....green eyes, auburn hair and fully poseable

Creating Rose, her hand made gown, baby cloths, rocking chair and footstool was truly a labor of love for me. One that brought back so many wonderful memories of years gone by...and those still to come. What better way for you to celebrate life than to treat yourself to a OOAK original miniature doll to brighten up your doll house, castle, room box or quaint cottage!

You can enjoy more pictures of Rose along with other precious dolls, from housewives to witches, Queens, warlocks, doll house furniture, accessories and more in my Etsy shop  

I hope you stop in soon and often...and bring your friends, collecting can be so much fun when you share your passion for it with other. And remember all of my creations are one of a kind hand made items never to be duplicated of mass produced. I don't use any molds so each and ever treasure coming from Loreleiblu Miniatures comes with a certificate of authenticity.
