Miniature Monday: Lehigh Valley Miniature Show

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Last weekend, my girlfriends and I attended the Lehigh Valley Miniature Show.  The show is hosted by the Lehigh Valley Small on Scale Miniatures Club. You can click HERE  for their website.   We make the 2 hour trek from Brooklyn to Pennsylvania every year and really enjoy the show.  It's a small show, which is perfect for me since I take forever to look at each table.  I always manage to find incredible miniatures from talented artists.  I'll be sharing some of my goodies over the next few posts. 

I spent a fair amount of time at Arlene Finkelstein's table (Artistic Florals.)  She's an inspirational miniaturist who loves to teach others her beautiful techniques.   While I love flower making, I LOVE flower buying even more.  Remembering how hard I worked on the lemon tree she taught me, when I saw this orange tree on her table, I bought it immediately.



These two arrangements caught my eye and I had to have them for my kitchen roombox.

 The two tiny pots on the right are 1/2" scale sunflowers.

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Hello Ketsia! I think that it is Grand when the work of an artisan that you admire can also teach you how to make the things that you love for yourself too! Your orange tree is so lush and looks wonderful in the pot that it is in. I know that you enjoy flowers and the ones that you have purchased are very pretty. I especially like the tiny yellow flowers in the green pot. Flowers always make any place, feel more welcoming and add so much cheer to the environment. Have lots of fun placing all your new pretties!

    1. Oh boy this makes me wish I still lived in NJ. :-) I really like that orange tree. I see it in a relaxing courtyard. Can't wait to see what you will do with it. :-)
