Sarah Maloney of The Dollshouse Kitchen...

My name is Sarah Maloney I am based in the UK and have been making 12^th scale miniature food for about 4/5 years now, on a part time basis. I am on the brink of making it my full time occupation which, I am very excited about one minute and terrified the next. I have also dabbled in 1/6^th and 1/4^th scale which was very strange at first as everything just seemed way too big.

Currently I sell my miniature work on Etsy www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6537317

I have always been interested in dollhouses and had several when I was a little girl. The sort a not very competent Uncle or Grandad manages to muster up. Well   after visiting the Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green UK and seeing all those beautiful Victorian dollhouses – which incidentally put mine to shame- I decided that one day I would own something similar.

Eventually in 2004 (in my 36^{th year}) I purchased my first and only grown up dollhouse. It was while I was on holiday (I work in a school and had a 6 week summer break) that the polymer clay food bug bit me. I thought I would have a go at making some food for the house that was 5 years ago.
