The world of miniatures and miniaturists is a fascinating one. Miniaturists are some of the most caring people, always looking out for each other, always willing to help one another in any way possible. Not only do they care for people, they care for detail and historical accuracy in the houses and scenes they build, too.
These are just some of the questions you may see in Small Stuff Digest. Incidentally, the mouse skull and the tanned hide of the mole were to be used in making a realistic bear skin rug. Other postings will ask about the possibility of a ride to a show, or sharing a room. Still others will tell about a miniaturist that is in the hospital. Another person may ask if anyone has the email address of someone, or there may be a question whether a certain miniature store is still in existence, or where a certain product is available. Often the question refers to a way of making a certain miniature, or how to fix a problem that someone is having with building a miniature, whether it be a house or a single object, such as a garden hose.
The "SS"rs, as we call ourselves, look to meet each other at a show someplace, and Tracey designed a badge that we could wear to be recognized easily. After reading the postings of certain people, you feel you already know them, but since we are from around the world, we may consider each other as good friends, and never met face to face before. I have two such friends in Australia, and I have had the pleasure of meeting one of them, and her husband, when they were visiting in New Orleans.
