77. Lamps for your 1/144 dollhouse that really work. They're too tiny for our eyes to appreciate them--there is only one fibre optic strand in each lamp--but they will show up as intriguing pinpricks of light in a dimly-lit room.
They come with instructions for those not familiar with fibre optics. If you are comfortable with dollhouse electrics, you will have no problem; for those who aren't, I describe a simple arrangement with a very small flashlight (torch) hidden under or behind your 1/144 scene. It's not as complicated as it sounds!

I enjoy turning tiny vases and bowls, and even little pots with lids, so these (pictured just below) are usually available. They are for those who are super-enthusiastic about tiny things, because they tend to look like just a tiny piece of wood, and are easily lost. I use quite interesting woods, including "pink ivory" (not connected with elephants, just a kind of wood that finishes to a bright pink-red colour). |
