We Enjoy Creating Miniature Versions of Real Life Items and Settings
About Us
Founded in 1976, members of the Toledo Area Miniature Enthusiasts share a common interest in creating and collecting miniatures including dollhouses, furniture, dolls, and accessories. We also craft miniature settings and small structures. Representing all skill levels from beginner to envied skilled and experience artisan, our group consists of both women and men who enjoy not only sharing ideas, tips and their artistry with other members but also the special camaraderie.
Our organization is a chartered member of the National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts and is consistently recognized as a Blue Ribbon Club.
We welcome new members and our club is open to all skill levels and individuals of all ages (16 and older). Our members work in 1/12, 1/24 and 1/48 scale projects. Join us and share in our excitement of miniatures and dollhouses!
