As the unbelievable and quite tumultuous political dramas continue to unfold here in the UK, practically every single one of us has an opinion of some sort, so it is best for me to say nothing other than let's hope there is a
happy ending for all concerned. Meanwhile, life has to go on...
If you have been following KT Miniatures Journal just recently,
you will have seen that my workshop colleague Robin has decided to retire
completely from the world of professional miniatures, so this coming Saturday
will be our very last workshop together. All kits are ready and we have just
had our very last "workshop management meeting" this morning.
Although Saturday will be tinged with sadness, we are very much looking forward
to seeing everyone who have booked to come.
Just to reiterate, that I hope very much to continue the workshops
in some shape or form once Mr KT's health has (fingers crossed) improved -
hopefully by next year this will be so. Any future workshops will be run under
the banner of KT Miniatures, as the Nostalgia In Miniature Workshops website will
be no more by the end of July.
A Bit Of Website Tweaking Plus KT Miniatures Sold Gallery & Handmade Gallery
Inspired by
a tiny motif seen on a page header in a late c1800s children's book....
I have managed to create a new patterned
wallpaper background for KT Miniatures website, hope you like it. Well you know
me and my patterns...I couldn't leave that background plain for long, and once
the pattern had been created I then had to learn which buttons to press to
transfer it onto the website background. But yay - sucess! Am quite chuffed
with the result.
Yes....am
pleased to say that very slowly I am getting to grips with the new website and
have also got my act together to create a Sold Gallery plus a KT Miniatures
Handmade Gallery too. But I'm afraid due to logistical reasons, I simply will
not be able to resurrect the Customer Creations or Customer Old Dolls House
Gallery from the old website. Is a shame I know and I have received one or two
emails with regards to this, but if you scour through the archives within this
KT Miniatures Journal, you may find one or two interesting snippets from those
old galleries on here for your enjoyment.
The new Sold Gallery contains images of many of the old dolls houses sold by KT Miniatures over the past few years, which you may find useful. If you click on any of the dolls house photos you have an option of viewing it as an enlarged image and as a slideshow.
Plus on a different page, there is a KT Miniatures Handmade Gallery, with images and videos of just some of my own favourite miniature scene creations, including one or two made jointly with my workshop colleague Robin.
Within time I hope to bring a further gallery page of sold antique and vintage accessories/furniture but for now, I need to concentrate on listing more vintage items to the website, as and when I can in between all the comings and goings at this end.
