Are miniatures for kids or adults? 🤔 I posted this video of my miniature office on @youtube and they designated it to “Made for Kids.” I appealed the decision- but they won’t budge. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I always make my content 🧒🏼👧🏿👦🏻👧🏼👦🏾 friendly because I’m 👵🏻. BUT… I’m wondering how to change their perception that miniatures and dollhouses are for kids? 🤔

Do you keep up with makeup trends? My kids (thirty-somethings) tell me I’m so 1980s. Not true, because I seldom wear blue eyeshadow. 🤣 I don’t keep up - I usually do my makeup just like I learned back in the day. How about you? This miniature makeup is made by ReMent in Japan *Full unboxing video in stories.

Do you use your “nice” dishes. I seldom use the dishes I inherited from my mother, but I should. I got these adorable miniature dishes for my doll house in Vegas at the International Market of Miniature Artisans. Janie Blair of La Petite Decor has adorable tiny things and I’m still regretting not buying the little pecan pies. I’m looking forward to going back to Vegas next year to get some.

What variety of Girl Scout cookie did you get this year? In case you didn’t notice - Girl Scouts across the country are out in force. I bought Caramel deLites, Do-si-dos, and Lemonades from the adorable young ladies who set up shop in front of my grocery store. The cookies almost didn’t make into the photo because I have a cookie rat 🐀 in the house (hubby) who can’t resist sweets. Have you been nibbling on any GS cookies?

Did you have any of these Midges or cases? Midge has been Barbie’s best friend since she debuted at the toy fair 60 years ago today. Do you have a best friend? I’m blessed because Nancy has been my BFF for 3 decades. AND I met my first Barbie friend @midgefan73 at a Barbie event 5 years ago - and I am soooo glad I did.

What is your most memorable baking mistake? When I was first married I made biscuits and used baking soda instead of baking powder. 😳 They were flat and hard. For four decades, I have referred to them as my hockey puck 🏒 biscuits. 🤣 This miniature box of baking soda is a Mini Brand and is perfect for my tiny kitchen.

Is you phone storage full? I keep getting a message that my iCloud storage is full. Probably because I have thousands of videos like this that I made and never posted. 😬 Are you a deleter or a saver?

Would you rather be shrunk down to miniature size or have your miniatures blown up to real size?
I met Brandalyn at her first Miniature convention and I predict she will be very popular in the Mini scene. Her plants, charcuterie boards, and food magnets are beyond cute. Go follow her account @82moonsdesigns so when her Etsy shop opens back up, you’ll be first in line. Yes, I purchased a bunch of her cheeses and cold cuts and I made my own charcuterie board - while I’ll post later. Her minis are 1/12th but she is willing to learn 1/6th scale 🥳 Thanks @imoma.lv for making it possible for me to meet the up and coming talent in the world of tiny things.
