I recently acquired a Cricut Explore Air 2 machine, which is kind of like a printer except that it doesn't print, it cuts things out. It also draws and scores stuff, but I got​ it mainly for the cutting because I cut out so many tiny shapes, flower petals, patterns, etc. that I might actually wind up giving myself carpal tunnel or something. With a Cricut I can make a machine and my laptop do some of the more repetitive work now. Since I'm in the middle of learning how it all works, and just for fun, I designed some paper chain dolls in Illustrator, shrunk them to dollhouse sized, and ran a cheap piece of copy paper through to see how it turned out. -Yeah, that is pretty amazing. Near perfect, cut out faster than I could do it on my own. This machine has opened up so many possibilities... #cricut #cricutexploreair2 #dollhouseminiatures #paperdolls #microminiatures #papercraft #craftadventure #bykylelefort #illustrator #adobeillustrator #paperchain #paperchaindolls #possibilities

Not sure how it started, but roughly a month ago while browsing Amazon I found several companies that sell wholesale teeny tiny people for relatively cheap (definitely need to be painted better though). Bought, oh 300 or so, split between a few different sellers just to see if there were any differences (If you were wondering, these all wound up being pretty much the same). Took a month to arrive, forgot all about them during that time, and was very surprised today. ~ This is a weird thing to get in the mail, but not nearly the weirdest thing you could get in the mail... #microminiatures #people #trainpeople #modeltrainpeople #tiny #artadventures #itbegins #amazonfinds

Today I am prepping today for next week's Miniature Monday.  I had to borrow these from the map collection just to get a shot of the book.  "Miniature" does not begin to describe next week's book...Look forward to it!  Meanwhile, I need to find out what else I can do with these while I have them...
