In Labour weekend (24 -27 October) this year the Nelson Miniature Club held the biannual convention in Richmond, Nelson. This year the theme was 'Bon Appetit'.
Garden City Miniaturists (the club I belong to) decided to make scenes inside food containers for our display.
I decided to make a scene in an egg carton using one of my miniature knitted hens. One of the lovely ladies at club suggested she should be knitting!
I made everything from items I had at home, and the TV screen and DVD container were printed using the home computer. The only things I had to buy were the polystyrene eggs - very easy to find, as I made it well in advance for the show, at Easter!
When we put all the club members items together we displayed them as if they had tipped out of a grocery basket... titled "The Whoopsie Waterfall"!
