Shadow Box Scene Bricks & Stone


 
I just completed another Shadowbox scene this month and this time, I used a brick design. This is a wonderful way to remember the engaging look and ambiance that summer climbing roses in bloom can bring to a garden! There are handmade roses (2 different shades of pink) in the climbing rosebush. Most of my dollhouse collectables have a charming "old world" feel to it. This piece I just finished is no exception. There is moss growing along the stones and brick. It's an exceptional looking item to add to your collection especially if you have limited space in your home.

The stones and brick were hand sculpted by me "free style" without use of molds. I then painted each and every stone & brick and pillars to simulate the look of what you would see in nature. If you purchased this scene, I am sure you will be as happy with it as my many other customers has been with their items.

The size is of this 1" scale item is 9" W x 3" D x 12" H

This display Box (Shadowbox) scene has a glass front. You can hang it on your wall or you can sit it on a table. Either way, you will enjoy viewing this item and I am sure it will bring a warm smile to your face every time you view it.

This piece would be a Fabulous surprise gift for a dollhouse collector or can be great for a person who is not a dollhouse or miniature collector because you can display it anywhere in your home or office and it is a great conversation piece. Please see my other listings here on etsy to see other items created by me. This item has a glass front.

1" Scale Roombox or Display Box Dollhouse Scenes

I have loved creating dollhouse miniature scenes in shadowboxes or room box settings for years. I am almost finished with the Brimbles that I started on this summer and sometimes, when my creativity is overcharged, I do other small projects along the way and I find so much enjoyment creating a setting in a roombox or shadowbox.

I have been excited to share with you all the new display box creations I have been making. I have tried to fit a lot of the elements that I would normally put in my dollhouses, in these miniature scenes and I try and leave enough space so that the buyer can add their own things to each scene.

These are perfect for the person who don't have a lot of space in their homes for dollhouses. I have even sold a few to people who are not miniature collectors at all but just love art.

I have a three pictorial sneak peeks of one that will be available soon for sale. It's unpainted in these shots but, you can see some of the cool elements added to this scene. 

Here are a few of some of the ones I have done in the past:

Night Time In The Court Yard Dollhouse Box

I am sorry to be behind in sharing things on my blog. Last week, I shared a WIP (work in progress) photo of a 1" scale roombox I was working on and it sold within 2 days. The box is from Olde Mountain Miniatures that I bought several years ago. It's a "Harvey Wallhanger" box and I had this idea for a roombox in my head for a while. I actually started on it this past winter and set it aside to do some other things. the other week, I decided to go ahead and paint it since the clay work had already been done and this is the Magical scene that I was able to create. It has a a lighted carriage light too which is lit by battery.



Even though this was made from a "Harvey Wallhanger" roombox, it is made to sit on a shelf. You can almost smell the Wisteria flowers & almost hear the water fountain.
