Tiny Terrarium Necklace by WoodlandBelle
I’m not sure where my love of tiny things started. I suppose subconsciously I always liked them. When I was little, I would tag along with my mother to a craft store called Mac’s, where I would always run to the dollhouse section and look at the tiny chairs and sewing machines and apples. While we were there, I also had a habit of begging my mom for a new tiny ceramic animal to add to my collection. I amassed quite a few, including rabbits, dogs, otters, frogs, and penguins. Almost all of these have endured unscathed into my adulthood.
This love of minis manifest itself into my crafts as well, with the first items I made and sold on Etsy being polymer clay dollhouse miniatures. Three years later, my favorite items to make are still the teeny ones. Particularly itty bitty polymer clay items in little glass bottles, such as the adorable metroid on my pinkie below. My husband always marveled that I am such a klutz, yet I can sculpt things smaller than a fingernail.

He bought me a dollhouse for Christmas one year. I am still in the process of putting it together (almost done!), but one day I will adorn it with intricate wood flooring, little throw pillows, and quite likely a lot of teeny bottles.
If you are looking to furnish a dollhouse as well, or also have a love of tiny things, you’ve come to the right place. Check out this gallery of top quality, unique items for your viewing (and buying!) pleasure.
