Miniatura

I have been in business for 37 years. Everything I have accomplished was with the guidance and love of my Grandmother, Shirley Burtchett (The Antique Doll) who was a world-renowned Doll Doctor, seamstress, and designer and at one time when I was young had one of the largest antique doll collections in the Pacific Northwest. Miniatures and dolls are truly in my blood! She was my mentor and made me a lover of “Tea Time” and I miss her every moment!

I love to talk about mini’s and Dolls and will always do my best to answer questions. I also am always looking for patterns, books, tutorials that I can buy the copyrights to. My goal is to have the largest selection anywhere! All my patterns are available in PDF or printed and mailed copies.

I carry artist dolls, miniatures and also am lucky enough to hold the copyrights on Natasha Beshenkovsky’s Mini Decoupage Decor.

“Decoupage” is a French word that means “cutting out” The art form flourished in Victorian times and although it has been called the “poor man’s art,” such luminaries as Marie Antoinette and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis have practiced the craft. Decoupage is typically applied to wooden furniture pieces: tables, desks, chairs, chests, screens, and boxes. In full-scale decoupage, paper cutouts are practically drowned under many layers of lacquer, with careful sanding between applications. With Natasha’s technique, the process is much simpler. Included with your decoupage print sheet are easy and precise instructions in 3 languages. I also will include a copy of the 4-page article that was done on Natasha’s Mini Decoupage in Dollhouse Miniature magazine. There you will find more how-tos and additional information.

Any of Natasha’s mini decoupage can be adapted to be used on your choice of miniature furniture and decor!
