Worn Elegance Miniatures

Thank you so very much for visiting my "little" boutique!

It is filled with fine miniatures in 1:12 scale and offers one of a kind, artisan pieces  for collectors and enthusiasts.
My background is in interior design and furniture. My passion is in miniature art and design! 

My pieces are created from unfinished, museum quality makers, such as Bespaq, JBM, and Jiayi.  I also work with high end quality kits from Italy, Netherlands, South Africa and England. 
Once received, these pieces are meticulously hand painted in oils, chalks, acrylics and enamels. Glazing techniques, gilding and waxes result in amazing finishes. Ornate metal hardware, drawer pulls, and architectural details are added. The finest coverings of  gorgeous silks, taffetas, dupioni, linens, and French and English lace are used. All pieces are finished off with lovely, tiny, and amazingly detailed trimmings!

My pieces and “little” creations are meticulously filled with the tiniest of details and lots of love! 
If art is defined as "an imitation of life," then this is my art , and I am truly grateful for the "little" treasures in life!

Thank you so much for visiting, for your kind words, and for allowing me to design and create every single day!  Heidi C
