Today our resident miniaturist has lost her voice! So the 'Sparkie' has been promoted to video presenter! Jill has a terrible pre-winter cold and has lost her voice. The 'Sparkie' is not allowed to say "mixed blessings"! But a cold does not deter any determined miniaturists, so today we made some miniature appliances for 'Lavender Cottage'. A blender, an electric kettle, and a toaster. Once in place 'Lavender Cottage will almost be fully complete and Jill will conduct a full tour of the house when it is. Could not work on the Tudor House today - far too cold in the garage to spend any time there. For those new to my channel, this is Day 326 of my video diary 'A Year in the Life of a Miniaturist'. It's all about recording my miniature endeavours as I work on my various miniature projects. Some days, heaps of progress. Other's more thoughtful and slow. But that's the world of a miniaturist ... right? I do also share some free project ideas folks may be interested in. So do make sure you subscribe to my 'Free Projects' playlist as well. Check it out and grab the free downloads! You can see a lot more projects on the 'Free Projects' tab on my website too: https://miniaturetimetraveller.com/fr... And don't forget to consider joining my channel membership group. The major benefit initially is member access to my online miniatures magazine, including all back issues (50 at the present time). And the member content will evolve over time. One great idea, still formulating, is to use it as a vehicle as an online miniature club. What do you all think of that idea? Any other suggestions for what to include are highly valued, so keep the ideas flowing! Keep a watch on my YouTube Posts Tab for news on this front. For now, best wishes to all, Jill.
