Yesterday evening after work I set out on a big long-weekend adventure to visit the wonderful Div in Bowral. We plan to spend the next couple of days holed up in her studio, sorting things out before a couple of other miniaturist friends arrive for the weekend. And she's given me the back-story to The Pink Door, the shabby chic shop she displayed at this year's Sydney Miniatures Show, so I can share it with you soon!
