Miniatures Design Class

When you click on
these thumbnail images,
you will see the designs at
approximately their true size,
less than 5" x 5" x 5"

The Miniatures are no more
than 5"x 5"x5" in any direction.
All the Principals of Design
still apply but in tiny
dimensions. At flower shows
the miniature designs are
staged in small niches
to place them in appropriate
scale to their surroundings.
