Doll Festival - from About.com

Fuji Fashions - by Chris Shabata in Canada.The exterior is unchanged except for some decorative additions, a sign and the skylight, so it is basically what came out of the box, just a different colour scheme. I changed the sidewalk in front by slightly widening it, applying a textured printie for the brick sidewalk and adding a full stone step but he inside is totally different from the kit, which included some clunky-looking shelving, signs, plants, a stool and other stuff that didn't work for this shop. So I guess I'd term what I did as slight modifications to the structure, with the interior made from scratch.
As for the front, it is hinged on the left side (hinges and nails were included), and the whole thing, including the attached sidewalk swings open. I can't remember if the hanger came with it or not....... And the figure you see wearing the kimono is a 1:24 dressmaker's mannequin that was part of a bridal shop kit.

Instructions for Japanese miniatures

  • Japanese lanterns -Use white bendable straws. Pull them open and use Sharpie Permanent Markers to make pictures or random color spots around the accordion part of the bendable straw. When dry push it back together. Then cut the straw barely above and below the accordion part. Use them as is or drill a hole in the porch roof above where you want the lantern to hang down from. Push a light down through the hole from the top of the porch so it hangs out the bottom. And then glue the lantern over the light so you have a lit lantern.

The geisha tutorial is false. Geisha's aren't looking so. Could it be deleted?

there's always room for imagination in mini projects. but we can remove geisha content from this page as we have a page dedicated for them.
