Dollhouse Miniatures in Maine

What's a Miniaturist to Do?

The great state of Maine has a wonderful history of handicrafts, and long winters in which to practise them. The dollhouse and miniatures hobby goes deep here. In some quarters the hobby has dwindled in popularity, shows have slowed in frequency, shops are few and far between and have limited hours. This sure isn't like the hay days of the 1970s for miniaturists.

And yet, there are hundreds of us here who love this hobby and can't let it rest. On these pages I have sought to gather all of the information I can find that is pertinent to miniaturists in our neck of the woods. If you know something that should be on here, contact us at this email address.

What You'll Find Here

Under Happenings you'll find lists of events, club meetings, and exhibits.
The Places heading holds a list of shops and artisans around the state.
Look in Houses and Furnishings if you want to enjoy viewing mini stuff from the comfort of your computer chair.
How about some mini articles? In our mini weblogs section we are plotting a mini revival, posting photos of current projects, and keeping a travelogue of mini excursions.
Yes, we have a photo gallery, too!
Have you seen it all? Is there something that you can't find? Our Site Map page shows how we are organized and even has a search feature for the site.
