Welcome To What's New
COMING IN 2008
After
many suggestions and requests, I am expanding my hand painted
miniatures to include Hand-crafted Doll House Furniture in 1/12 scale.
If you aren't familiar with this scale, almost all doll houses are in
1/12 scale or more easily put, 1 inch = 1 foot.
To
continue bringing you the very best in miniatures, I will have
available furniture from the 'House of Miniature' line. These were very
popular with the miniaturist hobbiests in the 1970's -1980's. The HOM
line is finely crafted furniture that will also have the finest of
staining on them. Just imagine walking into a fine furninture store and
then looking at mine. The only difference will be the size. Hobbiests
are using the HOM line in both doll houses as well as room boxes. Look
for these soon, and watch the newsletter for additional information!
Now
that you have the finest in furniture, you will want to set it off with
the most stunning miniature rugs imported from Ankara, Turkey.
These
rugs will be arriving soon. They are in the 1/12 scale just like the
furniture! These will NOT be stamped, or knitted, but actually weaved
just like the fine rugs that are imported from Turkey. They will also
feature the fringe on both ends. The samples will be arriving soon, and
will include multiple patterns to better serve your miniaturist needs.

Well, if you have made it this far with me, this will be the page where
I will try and tell you what's new and exciting in the world of
miniatures.
This web site has been a long time in coming. Having
started off selling on eBay under the ID of serenitychimes, I have
worked each day to bring a quality product to my customer. The feedback
system on eBay, while it has it's flaws, is the closest thing we have
to monitoring our behavior. My feedback speaks for itself.
Currently I am working on a number of projects. One that I am very proud of is my 10 piece collection from
Charles Dickens'
A Christmas Carol
Below
are the first two pieces in this series, Mr. & Mr. Fezziwig. The
complete set will soon be premiering here and will be available in
small groups as well as the complete set.

$43.50 This outstanding grouping is now
being made available.These pieces are NOT considered a toy, but a fine
collectible. They are painted using the very finest acrylic paints and
finished in such a way as to protect your investment for years to come.

Mr. & Mrs. Fezziwig
$43.50 These pieces from Charles
Dickens 'A Christmas Carol' are newly available and will be a certain
high point in your miniature collection. A stand out, certainly for the
Christmas season, but also as a lasting tribute to this famed author.
The complete 10 piece collection will soon be available.

I
would like to know what you would like. Is there a type of band or
figure you would like me to make available? Please let me know. Feel
free to email me at streamofserenity@aol.com. At some point I hope to
have the email system on this new web site operational. Also, as time
permits, when new things are going to be made available, I will feature
them on this page along with pictures.
Until next time,
steve

Well, I didn't expect 'next time' to be so soon, but feel I MUST inform
both my established customers and those who are thinking of choosing
STEVE'S HAND PAINTED MINIATURES as your next opportunity to add fine
miniatures, that my caster, simply the best in the country has been
smacked with a whopping increase in the price of metals he uses.
Consequently, my prices simply have to be increased. I certainly would
RATHER NOT have to do this, but it is just a business decision. I have
some stock on hand that I can sell at my regular prices and will do so.
This would also be a good time to explain my 'PRE-ORDER' statement in
my eBay auctions. My income is such that I cannot carry a large number
pieces in stock, so when I list an auction, often times you will see
the 'PRE-ORDER'..meaning that when you win the auction, you will pay
just like any other auctions, and then I will order the pieces in for
my painting. I invite you to review my eBay feedback, or contact me for
some personal references, those who have offered to gladly spread the
word about the quality of my work. thanks,
steve
