Annina's House

These pictures are from Annina's house.

The cozy sewing room,

the kitchen after dinner,

the recycling on the sidewalk in the early morning.

This is a house where a family lives, with a pocketbook and a bike in the hallways, crumbs on the kitchen table, all the lights blazing, a laundry basket in the hallway, homework on the desk, and an unmade bed. Can you believe that this is a miniature house? It was made by Annina Gunter. Her blog is called Miniatures by Annina.

She was featured in The New York Times this weekend in an article about miniature house makers. To see more great pictures, go to http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2010/04/07/garden/20100408-minimod-slideshow_12.html These pictures make me want to build a miniature house, too.

All the pictures in this post are from The New York Times and Annina's flicker account. Thanks, Annina! I'm fascinated by your miniature world! love, Beth

me encanta el trabajo de Annina y, particularmente me entusiasma la idea ya que, como entretenimiento he realizado algunas maquetas de viviendas, además de una casita de muñecas para mi nieta (ahora que estoy jubilado), incluyendo todo el mobiliario. Estoy pensando seriamente en seguir adelante con eso y al ver lo hecho por Annina me siento mas entusiasmado todavía. Felicitaciones.

Oh wow, for a second even I was fooled into thinking it was a people sized house. These are wonderful. Thanks for showing us this.
