Nell Corkin, 2014 Academy Instructor

Nell Corkin, IGMA Fellow, has sent us pictures of what she will be teaching at our 2014 Good Sam Academy of Miniatures. This adorable cottage in 1:144 scale would be perfect as a stand alone piece or as a dollhouse in your 1:12 scale dollhouse. The battens (vertical strips of wood) shown on the front of the cottage will not be used at the Academy, but otherwise this is what her students will take home.

Look for Nell’s bio on her web site, http://www.nellcorkin.com to learn of her background, including working with such as Steven Spielberg. Click on pictures to enlarge.
