Before starting a big project like my English Country Cottage Kitchen,
I knew the I would need some statement, quality pieces that would anchor
my room. Two miniaturists immediately came to mind, both of whom have Etsy
Shops. The photo above, shows a big stove surround and an Aga stove.
These were both created by Rebecca of Tiny Dwelling. She sells original
hand rafted designs that are unique and memorable. All of the pieces can
be purchased in various color ways, which makes it quite easy to stay within
your own design needs. I also purchased the Aga stove from her.
This vintage looking standing sink is one of Rebecca's designs too. Both
pieces were investments, but the results are so worth the means. If you
would like to see more of Rebeccca's creations, look here:
Another one of my favorite artisans on Etsy, in Matthew Weston of
Weston Miniature. He created this lovely arm chair in the photo
above. Matthew sells splendid furniture, but also fine and one of a kind
accessories too.
This little porcelain hen sitting on a basket is one of his. A piece like this,
gives charm to a room and adds character. I have more of Matthew's
porcelain pieces that I will share with you later.
Here is an example of a find quality piece of furniture at a very affordable
price. Don't overlook craft shops like Hobby Lobby where you can find
some nice unfinished pieces that you may paint and make your ow.
This is another favorite miniaturists, Cynthia Lauren Sperin. I met Cynthia
through blogging and we have been friends for years now. She enjoys creating
mostly food items and her work is beautiful. Here she created the
jars of jelly, the dessert, the coordinating towel and book. Everyone wants to
see food on the table, and here items are so yummy looking! Cynthia's son was
just married, so her shop is empty at the moment, but will fill up again soon.
Stop by and see her at
In the days ahead, I will have more vendors to share with you. Stay tuned!
