Have you heard about the little.linzi project?

 As you know, I joined instagram a couple of months ago. and soon after discovered the feature which shows you other photos you might like based on your behaviour on the site.

This was how I discovered the account little.linzi, created by fellow Aussie Linzi Macdonald, who renovates dolls' houses in the most delicious spare and up-to-date way (and also has an online shop, which so far only stocks lovely miniature teepees, but hopefully will expand with some of her other pieces soon *hint hint*).

On Tuesday her work was featured on the West Elm blog, where she has recreated some of their classic pieces in miniature.

Fabulous exposure for Linzi (well done!), but also wonderful news for the modern miniaturist world in general.

The first thing I spotted in this kitchen was the Marimekko Siirtolapuutarha mugs and teapot

(which Linzi made herself: now why didn't I think of that?!)

Her friends have contributed to the house, one made a tiny crocheted afghan for her

Now I just have to wangle an invite to meet Linzi and visit the houses next time I'm in Sydney...
