I May Be A Bit Quiet ....But Just Doing A Spot Of Creating!

Whoo Hoo......thank you to all you lovely Followers who have just recently joined us on here.....there now appears to be 200 of you.....

WELCOME!  

Sorry I have been rather quiet both on KT Miniatures Journal and also on my website....(nothing new has been listed in the past few days). I am still here....but the reason for me lurking in the background rather quietly is that not only has real life got in the way a little (this includes trips up north to uni open days with daughter) but I have also been embarking on a spot of creating too, in preparation for Thame Fair in 3 weeks time. 

 

I try and give my creations a well used and much loved appearance so that they can look just at home in a genuine vintage dolls house as well as a dolls house that may have only recently been built.

I am hoping to have a new selection of handmade stock for the fair......and am thoroughly enjoying getting back into the swing of proper creating once more.

Everything shown in the photos will be unveiled at Thame Dolls House & Miniatures Fair on Saturday 23rd February here in Thame, Oxfordshire. Hope lots of you can come this year.....it is always a fantastic day out!!

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN....THE RAFFLE PAGE IS NOW LIVE!

Yes, it's that time of year again and the promotional page for the charity raffle in aid of Breast Cancer Campaign has just gone live. I am of course talking about the annual charity raffle that is taking place at

The Thame Dolls House & Miniatures Fair on Saturday February 23rd 2013.

Pair Of Hand Painted Tins & Bowl Donated By Victoria Fasken

Once again I am delighted to be co-ordinating this raffle as each year this proves to be a popular attraction at Thame Fair. Everyone's generosity never ceases to amaze me....from the artisan donators to the public buying tickets. There are currently four donations to kick this off.....and as the donations emerge, I will list them on the promotional  page in the order that they come in. Please note that the tickets can only be purchased at Thame Fair so hopefully we can tempt your mini tastebuds and entice you along to the Thame Dolls House Fair next February?

"The Bar At Folies Bergere" Donated By Ryan Terry Of Petite-Art

The raffle prizes, as always, will be from professional miniaturist artisans and traders only. So if there is anyone out there reading this who fits this category, no matter where in the world you are.... and would like to make a special donation, please do send them to me, Celia Thomas here at KT Miniatures. My contact details are on my website: www.ktminiatures.com.

A Pair Of 1/24th Scale Dolls Donated By Robin Britton Of Coombe Crafts

On the day, many of the rather lovely stand holders usually donate some magnificent prizes too so we often have well in excess of  30-40 prizes (and over 30 -40 winners).....so its worth coming to this very special and magical Oxfordshire event for that reason alone!!! The Thame Town Crier....will be conducting proceedings as usual.

Old Style Trunk Filled With WW1 Mementoes etc. By Celia Thomas Of KT Miniatures

KT Miniatures will have a double stand at this event and its the only regular fair that I attend nowadays. So do please make a note in you diary of Saturday 23rd February 2013. It will be taking place at the Thame Leisure Centre in Thame, Oxfordshire. The M40 is very close, plus there is a regular bus that stops right outside direcly from Oxford Station plus Haddenham & Thame Parkway Station.  Not only are there 46 high quality artisan stand holders but there are various fundraising attractions too, all in aid of Breast Cancer Campaign, including the infamous Sales Table! 

This charity funds research into breast cancer and has great personal significance as I have lost both my mother and maternal grandmother to this disease. Sadly I am sure there are many of you reading this whose family and friends have also been touched by this awful disease, either directly or indirectly. So why not come along to this wonderful event and help us raise lots for the worthwhile charity and have an enjoyable miniature day out too!
