I love the tiny things of this world whether created or found in nature and very much enjoyed and appreciated this video. In my next life I will finally have a doll house and will make all the textiles myself. The crewelwork on that chair and the chair itself are so beautiful. Before I became disabled, it brought me great joy to make elaborate doll and heirloom clothes from fine cotton and silk for the infants and children of my family and friends. I learned to embroider first from my great grandmother and then from books and, later, videos. I’m working on getting my hands in condition to copy and create 1950s and early 1960s couture clothes for my collection of 8 and ten inch dolls of the 1950s.

Fascinating content. My only problem with the video is the sibilance in the audio.
