New Miniatures, New Fairy Artwork & Related New Sale!

New Artwork: Half Scale Fairy House by Shannon Cooper!
This is sooo fabulous! Design Team Member Shannon Cooper has made a teeny, tiny fairy house (that new corner room box is just 6″ wide)!
And see that little picnic basket in the lower right corner of the photo grid? It’s just 1″ wide!
 |
From Shannon’s blog post:
Have you seen the new Half Scale Tall Corner Room Box? It is a wee thing measuring just 6″ tall x 6″ wide x 4″ deep. A perfect size that doesn’t take up too much space. Will it become a pint-sized Christmas scene with a decorated tree? A minute library that fits in your hand? I almost want to upholster another chaise lounge and make an elegant sitting room (and then fill it with cats). So many tiny possibilities! If that doesn’t have you grinning ear to ear, there’s a second Square Half Scale Corner Room Box that’s even smaller! I know, right? Deep breaths!
After my excitement ebbed a little, I decided to turn the room box into a house fit for a fairy. It seemed appropriate.
This whole project actually started with the new half scale versions of the rectangular bay windows (the bigger ones are the ones from Laura Carson’s Streets of Paris project)… then the house and the room box for the house kind of grew up around the window!

What an adorable project! I love the wooden exterior!
I love what Shannon did with the bark and moss!
I would go with a library.
Just love the exterior of this little house. It’s just so charming!
This is awesome! I love the use of the natural bark she used in the outside!
Love the way Shannon used the bark and moss, so creative. I would probably go with either a Halloween or Christmas theme, love both of those.
I love the way the flowers and vine add to the beauty and the lace valance gives it a sense of home.
I like the moss and bark.
Love it. The dragon diorama might need a shop annex.
Oh my gosh, that is ADORABLE!! I am in love with the little hanging baskets! How cute are they!! <3 <3
Oh my! Those tiny pastries! Swoon.
I LOVE the little lace valance!!!! Its all enchanting but i never thought of adding that little touch!!
What an enchanting project! I love how creatively she used all of the products. It would be exciting to have a chance to make something similar. I might scatter a few more flowers, I absolutely love the little rabbit beside the bowl. Thank you for the chance.
I love this! I want to make a 1:12 scale one. My favorite part is the added window to see in.I also love the real bark used. supe cute!
I love the weathered wood and all the moss. This project is full of texture. Its beautiful.I would like the 1:12 scale better myself.
Just darling. love that basket!!
Was just thinking about smaller scale projects. May make a fairy room or maybe a tiny she-shed.
Amazing project love the roof and the bark walls.
i would love to add this as a greenhouse to my miniature haunted house!
Love how she used the natural elements! The half scale basket is adorable!
My favorite detail is the lace at the top of the window.
I love how Shannon designed the outside of the house with bark and moss and the inside with the cute shelf with twigs and cardboard. I would do a pastry shop.
All the bark and natural materials is so nice. I love the food, the basket. All of it!
These extraordinary items just keep getting better and better!! Talk about taking your breath away……
I absolutely adore how Shannon used bark, moss and twigs to make the faerie house! It is totally breathtaking! I would be making a Faerie house with these goodies if I won! Thanks for the chance to!
I just Love! Love! Love this! I can’t pick one detail because I honestly Love the whole thing!! So awesome! Thank You so much! So Beautiful!
I love the outside with the bark and moss. And the little pastries made me think it was a bakery lol! Love Shannon Cooper’s designs!
Love the picnic basket and the rabbits!!! The bark exterior and moss make for a great woodland scene 🙂
I have a medium and small ivy punch, silk crepe paper, and 33 gauge wire that I could use to make ivy to run up the sides of the window. Then inside, I would make tiny cakes and sweets out of polymer clay. I have some thin acetate that would be perfect to make the “clay” for the panes.
Oh how magical…..love the bunny. However I am in love with the idea of the chaise lounge cat room…..might have to do that….
I love the natural elements she used; I would do something similar but with a darker atmosphere.
The fairies might find that the mice have raided their house (I have a mouse house I’m collecting for)!
Love the picnic basket and the flower pots. Great job Shannon.
I love Shannon’s project. Just so dang cute. I love that touch of lace! I would like to make a mini Christmas living room.
It is the cutest thing that I have seen in a long time. I would make an exact copy.
Absolutely without doubt the bark and the roof. Love it.
So tiny! So cute! Love it! Would make any faery proud!
I love this idea. I’ve ben making fairy gardens in my garden and this house would be a perfect addition. I love the idea of using natural, found objects to enhance the house.
Did someone say Fairies??! OH BOY! My favorite! I love the little cottage, especially the wood exterior. SO cute.
I love the miniatures especially the pastries
I love the Tiny Fairyhouse and all the little tiny things inside. This is so cute!
The bark detail on the outside, it makes it so charming. Amazing attention to detail with that.
I love all the tiny Fairy things. I have
a friend who would love to make the Fairy
House. Just might be a gift.
Love the picnic basket and utensils! The cottage is toooo cute!
I love the moss & bark and the natural elements used. The lace in the window is sweet looking as well as the utensils in the pot.
I think my favorite touch though are the moss & flowers on the window grilles. The whole cottage is really enchanting!
Fairies, Christmas, library, halloween? Who can decide. Have you ever considered making and selling kits of all these wonderful ideas.
I do love Christmas but I think I would decorate mine as Mrs.Rabbit’s bakery. Are those little acorn cap bowls I see? I love them! I have a collection of bark from different types of trees just waiting for a project :O)
You have some awesome designers and I enjoy your humor! I adore the use of wood bark on this project. You think you might come across this little house in the woods someday
It’s wonderful! So sweet and enchanting. The wooden exterior makes the window scene so warm and welcoming.
Congrats Ina! Love the fairy house! Everything about it is wonderful. The detailing is great. Something similar for my fairy garden. The chaise and cats sound good too. Thanks for the opportunity.
Hanging basket of berries (I believe) on Rt side in middle. This would make a cool frosted winter window scene.
I just love the bark that she used.
I love the idea. I do not think I would change much.
I love the bark and moss on the outside. Outstanding!
This little house is marvelous! I love the bark on the front. Very creative.
I believe! Who wouldn’t like acorn cap bowls, baby silverware and planters! Wood bark siding and sweet flower blossoms! Need this in my craft room!
Wow, absolutely darling, I would love to make this.
I love the way she decorated the outside from the walls to the surrounding area. I would turn mine into a fairy house with lots of stuff for them to get into!
I love the teeny utensils! If I were to make this I would definitely want a teeny fairy peeking out of a window! Beautiful.
The elves at my house love your work, Shannon !
I love Shannon’s projects and smaller scale. The collection of Gnomes I have will need to have this structure to have a forever home.
I love the bark!
