Leonardslee Gardens and other Miniature Delights!
June 30th, 2008I was lucky enough to visit the Leonardslee Gardens last year and I must say that it is a very impressive display of miniature talent! It really is a beautifully crafted exhibition with stunning attention to detail.
For those of you who don’t know, Leonardslee Gardens houses one of the worlds’ largest exhibitions and includes a 140 foot display frontage and a country estate! And like all The Dolls House Emporium products, it is produced in 1:12 scale, meaning that every inch represents 12 inches in real life. What a lot of work!
If you’re a member of our forum you’ll be able to access the pictures taken by one of our forum members on her recent trip, surely inspiration for us all.
For other dolls house and miniature outings, try visiting the following places:
- Sudbury Hall and the Museum of Childhood– watch out for Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle’s! www.nationaltrust.org.uk
- Windsor Castle – the home of the world famous Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House, a treasure trove of ideas and designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. www.royal.gov.uk
- Houghton Hall – our very own home from home! With the World in Miniature Museum www.dollshouse.com
We’ll see you there!
