New miniature toys

The first day of the new year somepeople enjoy themselves by going to the gym or reading a book or they simply want to rest. But if you happen to be a miniaturist, you go out for a walk and you try to find the wooden sticks they use in the fireworks. I'm so glad to have two children as a cover (without them my neighbours might think I've lost my mind :) ) I like to use those sticks for my miniature projects and at the same time you get to be environmental-friendly too.

Do you remember my new toy that I got as a graduation present? Here are some new wooden toys I've made with the scroll saw. The models are old and I've seen some miniature versions in other blogs too, so the ideas of making them in  miniaturesize aren't my own. These toys are perfect for my antique toy store project.

Last year (funny I can say that :) ) I managed to make some tablegames for my antique toy store. The first was an old game called African star, then I wanted to make an animal dominoes and the newest of my creations is Scrabble classic.
