I see an awful lot of the books I have in your list! FYI, for those interested, the Helen Ruthberg book is OOP, and I believe the one by Thelma Newman and Virginia Merrill is, also. I also see that the Willowcrest didn't speak to you, either.

[New Day]

LOL Holly. I love the Willowcrest style, but am really more into the half and quarter scales now. Love the space savings! If Greenleaf does the Willowcrest (and the Glencroft) in half inch scale, I will be first in line!

[havanaholly]

Oh, do I ever hear you! When I have built & found homes for all my 1:12 kits the only 1:12 house I plan to keep will be the Craftsman Bungalow I want to scratch build. Of course, I want to make an apartment for my 1:6 dolls...

[ADayInTheMiniLife]

Are any of the books still available? I see its been a little bit of time and am interested. Please reply here, or u can reach me thru my website or email.

Thanks

Kris

Thanks a ton

[havanaholly]

Kris, you really don't want to post your personal email in a public forum for spammers and webots to get hold of. That's why we have a personal messaging feature.

[ADayInTheMiniLife]

Oh wow ok. I honestly wasn't thinking. And I just made that email for my blog. Thanks for reminding me. Its not there anymore. Did a moderator delete it? Thanks for reminding me and telling me. I apologize and thanks again.

Kris

[New Day]

Thanks for asking Kris and for the reminder.

I'm so sorry I forgot to post that they are all sold now. I put them on Ebay and they sold while the forum was down, so I completely forgot to post here.

[havanaholly]

Kris, I let the mods know. You can google subject areas for mini making books and then see if your local library can get a copy (like on interlibrary loan) for you to see if it's something you'd want.

[New Day]

Just an update, everything has now found new homes. Thanks!

[Chris Wiggins]

Hi,

How much for There's a Dscorator in your doll house?

And The complete book of miniatures By Thelma Newman

 

Chris 

[havanaholly]

Chris, we do NOT post prices on this site.  You might want to read the prior posts to see that Traci has sold all of her books, back in 2013.  Once again, I suggest you look for the DIY books you might be interested in, and then see if your library can get you a copy on interlibrary loan to see if it's one you would want to own, and then haunt the used bookstores and online sites until you find them.
