Small Scale
These sweet-as-can-be little ones made by Christine, frolic together in the water with their micro-fish made by Mariella Vitale of Muffa Miniatures. Christine started carving wooden dolls in 2004 and creating them has become her main passion in life. Take a look and you will find that her dolls and creations always have stories of their own to tell!
CDHM Artisan Mariella Vitale of Muffa Miniatures crochets the very tiniest of fantastical creatures and critters. Using a combination of techniques, she creates her bright and happy funny guys with a very unique style all her own.
This fabulous shelf display houses many delightful creations. The inspiration of the incredible Dr. Seuss is evident in the lively colors of the threads and the adorable whimsy of her toys. From the super-tiny gnome in a snow globe to the micro sock monkey, her creations have expressive faces equal to the great Dr. Seuss' illustrations.
Even the tiniest of little snails are all just as happy as can be springing to life from the end of Mariella's crochet hook. Due to her passion for all things sweet and micro, most of her work is smaller than anyone would think it could ever possibly be, and we love it and can't get enough of her teeny threaded treasures!
