The miniature scale, the attention to detail, the simplicity of the design is so effective and beautiful.

I love this one, a city of row houses, just like where we live now, except all of ours are attached.

And Christina's also a dreamer, like me. Here's her profile on etsy:
"One day I'd like for us to be living on and working our own farm...with two kids, a barn, a shady garden, and no one to boss us around, free to enjoy life... "

And now this is why I haven't been posting so much in the past few weeks. I've been off dreaming ... but now it's coming true! We think we found a vacation home in the wine country. It's almost ours. Just a few more weeks until closing but it's such exciting news, I couldn't wait to share. And speaking of cute little houses, here's the best part of the cottage, a separate artist's studio!
It needs a lot of love but it's charming just as it is right now. I'll keep you posted! In the meantime, please check out The Oak Leaves etsy shop, it's full of charming little homes.

Thanks for this Kathryn! I sure hope I get to that farm someday soon, but until then Ill keep rearranging my miniature versions...
fantastic! the studio is amazing, you'll enjoy setting it up; maybe even adding a cafe table and chairs, or folding wooden and fabric beach chairs in front.
Very lovely!And you know ..i have something with houses :)
thanks for showing!
O..i just read the last part.
How exciting Kathryn and also a studio for you..you are a lucky lady!!
Oh YES, Eye-snacks!! How could I have excluded your work! Your pieces are coming up next :-)
Very exciting news, and big congratulations, Kathryn! (As for the tiny little houses... they are magical. I am always enthralled by such darling miniatures.)
That is so exciting Kathryn! I LOVE the little studio...perfect! Having a bit of trouble just now with blogger, so if this is the second message I apologize.
A space to dream and play. Every artist needs it! I love the possibility of new space. But, your talent would make any space creative.
Congratulations.
So whatever will you do when you are at home, in the future, away from that lovely yellow studio??
How lovely! Your studio looks so charming; what a wonderful place to work.
