Wanganui Miniature Show Exhibits

First of all, I just want to show you a picture of my little Heidi Ott doll in her new costume. The pram is one I made many years ago at a workshop.

As promised here are some photos of a few of the exhibits from the Wanganui Miniature Club Show. It was hard trying to to only select a few photos. My lovely husband went around and took the photos for me so I could chat with fellow miniaturists and have a good look around. Don't forget you can click on the photos to make them bigger.

 A general view of the exhibits.

A lovely little cabinet house. Hathaway Cottage had one of the cabinets on their stall and I was so so tempted. 

Little 1/144th matchbox scenes. I believe these are created from kits by Jewel Lewis, a New Zealand miniaturist.

Ettamogah Pub by Bronwyn Hutchins based on Ken Maynard cartoons.

Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs.

A miniaturist's workroom with some fabulous little dolls houses.

Shallow box exhibits with very creative names.

I love this little cottage.

Babylon Villa - something a bit different. I like the way the people are just paper cut-outs.

Exhibited by Penny Hook, I think this is also made up from a Jewel Lewis kit. The detail is fabulous.

A very elegant exhibit with a miniature scene inset on the back wall.

A doll within a doll.

Another very elegant scene. I love the picture over the fire place.

Last of the Summer Wine. Aren't the dolls fabulous.

I love this little build with the lace 'ironwork'.

The Onceler's house based on Dr Seuss' The Lorax.

Mackintosh room box. Love the mirror.

Sailing ship.

Ship in a globe.

A touch of steampunk.

Bear head flowers.

Mr & Mrs.

I have to apologise to the exhibitors in that I do not know who created the above exhibits, other than those noted, as I was not following my husband with a pen and notebook. However, if you let me know which are your exhibits I will be happy to add your names to the above photo descriptions.

Well everyone I hope you have enjoyed seeing just a few of the items from the show. I certainly came away with a dose of inspiration. I might do another post during the week with a few more photos.
