The Minimice in The Garden of Lace

The Minimice in the garden of lace have been busy writing a book. It's a cheerful and beautiful book. A book for both children and adults, and a keepsake book with cute little stories and many detailed pictures. The Minimice arrived at an abandoned garden and decided to stay there. They live in a world were life is so positive and good. Don’t you think we need more of that? This is where The Minimice share their life with you and their excellent tried and tested recipes for desserts, breads and cakes.  The book is now finally in it's last stage and will soon be presented for you. If you are a publisher or an agent please contact me and The Minimice for further info.

Making apples

 

It surely suits the weather these days to sculpt apples. Rosy apples for the mice so they can make cider, apple cakes and crumbles.

 

The Mini Mice, a new blog!

I have made a new blog devoted to the mini mice I am currently making. The blog is called
The mini mice. Please come on over and say hello. I would love for you to become a follower as well. The mini mice will show you their recipes from their kitchen. All tested beforehand of course. You will also see how they live and what they are up to. I will still have this blog Little Treasure for all kind of minis.

Here is a peak of what they have been up too..Today they are making crêpes, and I have included the recipe.

.

The mouse is here

Here you have mr Mice. The first one made with flocking. The cat is very curious, but I actually think they can become friends

 

 

It was great fun to get to know you Cat, but I have some work to do. Better clean those floors.

Cider making

                

 

The cider making has started in the mouse house. I bought some ready made bottles that I made new labels for. Also made the wooden crates.

Now I need to make hundreds of apples to put in crates and for the pressing machine. Weird to make them after the cider has been made though, but in mini world one can actually do that…

Summer feast

 

Today there's a summer feast in the mouse house kitchen. Fresh cooked lobster, salad and bread.

 

 

 

 

 

A potholder has been added to the kitchen. Those mice sure  like to cook.

Mouse house bedroom

 

Monday morning today, and showing one of the mouse house bedrooms. Very romantic decorated with pastel colors.

 

The beautiful baby crib was made by Janne Mauritzen A very talented furniture maker and a Norwegian friend.

Mouse house..a peak

           

 

 

No sight of the mice yet…guess they are out blueberry picking or something. Before they left they made some very nice smelling breads in the kitchen.

 

Here you can see some of my purchase that  I bought while I was in London. Beautiful porcelain by Avon. I think they were made for my mouse house.

 

 

Look what they left on the counter..

 

 

The beautiful “flie” cabinet on the table was made by Kari Mette Tvedt. They will be storing pies and eggs in it.

 

Have a terrific weekend. The mice says hello..;)

Mouse house

Lately I have spent some time on the large mouse house mansion. It’s a big apple tree and as I have told you before they will be producing apple cider and apple pies in the kitchen. It is not finished yet but wanted you to see how it looks at this stage. I like the terrace addition I made on the top and the apple tree flowers gives it a cozy feel I think.
                                
                                The house is so large that it is hard to take pictures of it.
                              
A close up of the bark and flowers. The lighting is bad, no sunshine nearby me, only rain and dark clouds. Doesn't make good pictures, but it makes me creative and work inside so it’s good for something.
        
                             
                                    Impatiently waiting for the mice to move in….

Mouse house next generation

 

This is a new project I have started. Another mouse house! It is very tall and will have many small rooms as you see. The sculpting process is quite tedious so it will take a while for it to finish, but as you see I am almost done with inside décor. I will make it into an apple tree, cozy and with a English cottage feel to it. I will show you more pictures as it evolves. The idea is that the mice will make their on apple cider in the basement and apple pies in the kitchen. How fun is that? Thanks for looking and I hope you all are enjoying spring these days.

                          

Treehouse

Yesterday I put my tree house up in my living room. I wanted to show you the size of the tree house. The mice are happy about the move from the basement and mummy mouse is busy making all sorts of  foods for the holiday. ( Yes I know I am mad)Maybe you can see the small trees I put around the house. Think I will decorated it further when December comes. Not many days left now. Thanks for all comments on my giveaway by the way. You are all so sweet.

Here you can check out my previous post on my Tree house

Last picture is my dog Fride. She was also very exited about the mice moving and wanted to help…

Happy Saturday everyone
