I was given a pleasant challenge last week by a customer who wanted a painting and decorating theme for a pendant to give to his wife. I am not entirely sure the reasons why but he ideally wanted a miniature paintbrush setting within a teardrop shaped pendant.

After much searching on the internet, a lovely Etsy store called ‘Middlemums miniatures’ came to my rescue. Carole of Middlemums miniatures produces fantastic handmade dolls house miniatures including a range of miniature painting and decorating items!
Because the paintbrush came with a separate paint can I also included an additional pendant as a gift to my customer. I added a sterling silver bail to the paint can to produce this pendant.

I am just loving encapsulating dolls house miniatures within my pendants and spending many hours searching through all the lovely items Middlemums miniatures and other similar sites have to offer.

Both items are brilliant! I have to agree with you- there's something really fantastic about a miniature suspended in resin- just has a delightful quality!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I just love dolls house miniatures and spend hours looking at them; take a peek at mytinyworld.co.uk, the attention to detail is incredible.

How absolutely wonderful, a couple we know are painter and decorators they would love this too. Many an artist would love that necklace.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynda! You have just given me the inspiration for a new pendant for artists. A miniature paint brush and paint palette that actually works; so they can paint ACEOs whenever they are in the mood!
