MINIS4NZ FIRST BIRTHDAY GARDEN BBQ PARTY PROJECT

Welcome to the Minis4NZ First Birthday Celebration Project
_______________________________________________________________

When Minis4NZ reached its first birthday, on 27 November 2001, it was felt that we needed to commerate this achievement. But how? Many members wished to send the list owner miniature gifts as a way of saying thank you for all the hard work and time put into making Minis4NZ a really great place to visit. In the end we decided that a 1" scale garden barbeque party scene would be a great way of creating a permanent keepsake for the list owner with items contributed by any member of Minis4NZ that wished to do so.

All contributed items will be photographed and displayed on this website as they are received.

All going well the finished project will be displayed at the October 2002 NZAME Convention in Auckland.

As I have no experience in creating outdoor scenes I will make two gardens from the book " The Dolls" House Gardener" by Lionel Barnard & Michael Hinchcliffe.

The two garden designs that seemed the most suitable are:

- The Vegetable Garden

- The Lighted Deck Garden

They will be displayed side-by-side to create one large garden scene. However, if there is not enough room in the two gardens to display all the contributed items then an extra lawn will be placed in between.
