LUNDBY

Last week I went to Berlin and found these amazing Lundby pieces in a junk shop. They came with a two room Lundby house, which I believe is the ground floor of the "Post Order House" shown here. Does anyone know more about it?

I love the reduced colour palette of the walls, floors and furniture.

Over the years I have collected a few pieces of 1:16 furniture but this is my very first scene in a smaller scale. I think I'm hooked...

SHIPPING

Just to let you know - I have now found a way of reducing the shipping for the larger items in my Etsy shop. :-)

NEW ITEMS!

I have just added a few more bits to my Etsy shop - most importantly a wall shelf inspired by the classic STRING shelves I love so much (Thanks for the encouragement, Oese!).

I have also been sewing loads and have made tons of pillows. My favourite ones are the red vintage ones.

I'm still trying to work out if there is a cheaper way of posting from Switzerland - the prices are just ridiculously high! Basically they charge the same price for anything up to 500g no matter what size it is... If you are interested in anything, please e-mail me and we can work out something together.

ETSY SHOP

I just wanted to let you know that I've opened my very own shop on Etsy today! I have added a few pieces and will add more when I get round to it. At the moment I'm concentrating on smaller pieces - but everything very Mid-century modern. If you have any ideas of what you would like to see in the shop - let me know...!

NEW HOME - NEW PROJECT

Finally after a couple of busy months with moving country and getting married I'm back making miniatures! I've uploaded a first preview of the current project - a real living miniature garden with summer house - onto flickr. The summer house is inspired by my parents' house here in Switzerland.

ARTICLE IN THE GUARDIAN

Sorry for the long silence - I've just moved back to Switzerland two weeks ago and I'm getting married on Friday so there is not much time for miniatures at the moment! I thought I'd share this article that was published in today's Guardian.

Hopefully see you soon - I still enjoy reading your posts every day!

MODERN MINIS ON THE BBC

A reporter from the BBC came to visit me on Tuesday to shoot this little report for the news. She even featured the Modern Miniatures Flickr group and photos from the Shopping Sherpa and Oese!
