When I had first started working in the MicroMiniature scale, I found this darling little log house kit. Pat had often asked for a miniature log cabin, so I decided to give this one a try. This was the first kit I attempted after I'd actually learned a little bit about working in this scale ("little" bit being the operative word here). When I got it completed, Pat was excited. He decided it looked somewhat like the Ponderosa, although I don't quite see that. So, here it is, my little log house and my early attempts at making things micro. The thumbnails below show only a very small portion of the entire picture. Click on the thumbnail to see the whole picture, full-size in a new window.

Kinda looks like the Ponderosa, huh?	Grandma and Grandpa on the porch, talking to their grandson. (He's less than 1/2 inch tall)	All the bricks were cut individually by hand from egg cartons. The grout is tinted Elmer's glue.	Another view of the chimney	The other end of the house
The flowers are made from false eyelash clumps and 1/2mm micro marbles.	Sparky checking out the garbage can	I need to patch the porch roof, don't I?	Full front view	Side view
End view	Other side view	Other end view	Porch again - need to repaint the door	The chimney again
Sparky and the garbage	The unfinished interior	The attic	That's a photo of Daddy when he was about 16 or 17 leaning against the wall.	A better view of Daddy's picture
Daddy's graduation picture hanging on the wall	Daddy's picture in the living room	The kitchen (Momma at the stove)	The upper floor	The nursery and little boy's room
