An Alice Spinny Thing! New Prima Clips; Paper Flowers Sale!
Filed under Alice in Wonderland, Art Projects, Fairy Garden, Flowers, Giveaways, Miniatures, Shannon Cooper
Wow! Lots of new items, a big sale on paper flowers, and TWO Alice in Wonderland projects by Design Team Member Shannon Cooper!
Alice All Around, A Weird and Wonderful Spinny Thing
My, oh my! This project is so delightful! Not only a new (tiny) room box with 4 rooms (!) but Shannon made Alice scenes in all the rooms! (Scroll down a bit to see the wide photo showing 2 of the scenes.)
Here’s a bit from Shannon’s blog post to start:
I am very excited to tell you about a Quarter Scale Four Scene Room Box – Forest from Alpha Stamps! This tiny thing with its long name is simply awesome! It is two flat chipboard pieces that you can paint (or paper, decoupage, whatever!), assemble, and then affix to the round base. That means there are four little areas to decorate until your heart is content. The whole piece is 6″ wide, so each room is 3″ x 3″, with a bit less space as the floor is round.
And what better way to decorate it than with Alice! And miniatures! And miniature Alice paper dolls! And let’s also make it spin!!! (insert flailing Kermit arms)
Okay, I am getting a little carried away… ahem. But this four scene room box does deserve all of those exclamations.
Ha! Shannon’s project and lively text are much appreciated! Note: Shannon added the Lazy Susan so that the tree can spin (not included by default, but a fun idea).
Plus, what is that little book at left? Shannon also includes an extra Alice project at the bottom of her post!
Here’s a link to all the supplies Shannon used for the Spinny Thing. Be sure to visit her blog post for lots more info & photos (and a video of it spinning)! AND see below in the Giveaway section for another photo (showing how you can take the characters OUT of the scenes!) and a chance to win lots of the supplies!

Alice Spinny Thing Giveaway!
And that promised second photo of Shannon’s artwork! She made little cardboard stands for some of her Alice characters (pics in Shannon’s blog post), so they can stand up and be taken out of the scenes! Perfect for playing paper dolls with a small human.

Such a cool room box! I would love to make a fairy themed one. But I love the Alice theme as well

Love this spinny thing! I would like to make a room for each major holiday – Halloween, Christmas, Easter, and July 4th.
Great spinney thing! Would love to try something similar

Alice is such a classic I love Shannon’s project. The spinning just makes it so much cooler.

Recovering from surgery, so I think I’d make a Halloween project with this awesome spinny thing! Wow, how fascinating it is!
Oh my! What wonderful things!
after many months of not crafting this pulls at my heart strings! love Alice and this is amazing, this could be the thing to send me back to making things again
I would love to make something Alice themed. Thank you for the opportunity.
Wow! Love this project a lot. I’d have to make a spinny fairy garden for my granddaughter!
MUST FIND items to clip in my findings clipper. Then sort them out again and put by the door knockers! Happy
Very cool! I’d make a spooky, spinny Halloween scene!

love the Alice themes! the clips are so cute!
How cute is this. Love the spinner.
I love this 1/4 scale roombox!! I love Alice! I would make the Alice scenes.
I love Alice! I would make either an all-Alice spinny thing or classic fairy tales –Snow White, Hansel&Gretel, Red Riding Hood,Rapunzel(since forests are associated with fairy tales so much).
That new room box gives me so many ideas!
This is the greatest and Shannon did a super job on the Alice turntable. So much to drool over. I’m thinking this would be perfect for a spooky Halloween themed project too.
I have to win this. Alice is my alter-ego.
I would have to make some Alice In Wonderland Divination cards.
Enjoy everything Alice

Alice is my favorite after Halloween. Would love to win.
Fabulous project using original Alice artwork. Beautiful piece of art. So inspirational. Thank you

This awesome spiny thing ROCKS MY WORLD! I am totally amazed and drooling over it and hav a quintillion ideas running through my head for different scenes I would love to create using this and the other goodies in this fabulous prize package!

Love the new Quarter Scale 4 Scene Room Box! If I’m so lucky to win this fabulous giveaway, I would do Halloween scenes.
Love the divided tree base. It would be fun to do Alice in a scene for all for seasons of the year.
Just love when you have Alice in Wonderland art
Cool project. I might do a 4 Queens project.
I love the spinny thing! What fun.
Absolutely love this! I work a lot in quarter scale and this has so many possibilities! 4 seasons, rabbit family house, Halloween, Alice, and on and on.
This is just great!!!
Little spinny thing is great.
I’d do a Headless Horseman theme in the spooky spinny forest
So many options with this 4 space tree rounder thingy!
“Off with their heads”
I love the spiny thingy. I have to have one.
I am so excited about this project! This is my first comment but not my first completed project. Alice projects are my favorite and I’m working on down the rabbit hole now. I love the spinner as is but I have items left from other projects I will use to make it my own.
I’d love to do a four seasons tableau. Maybe Alice, maybe not
I love the “spinny thing”! I think I’d make a Halloween scene with it.
