Merry Christmas Everyone! Santa's Workshop in 1:12 scale by Jean Day

1:12 Scale Roombox: Christmas Morning: The Girls

This girl's Christmas room box and porcelain dolls I made in the 1980’s and enjoyed renovating the box recently. After having 2 terrific sons myself I realize a girl’s and boy’s Christmas can be quite different. The next post shows the boy's Christmas roombox.

There is a tutorial on our website for the Angel on the mantel piece. I’ve put free miniature gift wrap printables in a previous blog post, many were used in the boy's room and can be printed in various sizes. The bows I made from vintage self sticking ribbon we sell in our Etsy site.. Thank you Tony for your beautiful videos.

1:12 Scale Roombox, Christmas Morning: The Boys

As a child, Christmas morning was the most exciting time of the year! I would wake up really early and was aloud to open my stocking but not the wrapped gifts until my parents were finally up. I would wake up my younger sister for this special time too. Santa would always put such thought into my stocking. The little things always meant so much to me.

I made these two room boxes, the girls is shown in the previous blog post and porcelain dolls in the 1980’s and renovated the boxes recently. After having 2 terrific sons myself I realize a girl’s and boy’s Christmas can be quite different.

Free Season's Greeting Printables, Christmas Gift Wrap, Boxes and Cards DIY

 

Here are some free printables for this season's gift wrapping. The last gift wrap I have offered before in AIM magazine and here,  I thought I would offer them in red and green this year too. The top gift wrap I made up this year with gnomes, snowflakes and some bricks for a Santa scene.  Just click on the images and right click to save them to your computer before printing. These can be printed in many scales, they are supposed to be 8.5 by 11 for 1:12 scale but I enjoyed using them while revamping my old Christmas room boxes in a smaller size too. If you can change your printer settings to 50% you get half scale papers and 25% you can print out quarter scale paper too. I will soon be posting my newest videos to see more ways I have used these papers. If you search for Free printables on my blog you can find some other gift wrap as well. On this page I show the above printable and directions as well. https://jdayminis.blogspot.com/2013/12/free-printable-page-and-aim-12-makes-of.html

A Mini Miniature Show starts today until Sunday, New Snowy Town Scene kit

 

Just organizing my page for A Mini Miniature Show starts today until Sunday. Hope to see you there. http://aminiminiatureshow.weebly.com/

When I was young at around this time of year and closer to Christmas, I used to love walking up and down our main street and visiting all the wonderful shops, fabric shops, toy stores etc. It was so much fun to just window shop and the windows were always fabulous. That was what I was thinking of when I started this kit but it really morphed, LOL.

I have just finished a new Quarter Scale kit as a roundtable kit for the show. It is called a Snowy Town Scene that is laser cut on heavy paper and the 4 layers and buildings can be arranged in many creative ways.

 Here is my latest video that I'm so excited Tony produced, he did a terrific job. This was my very first roombox  I did in the early 1980's.
