Maureen Holmes-Woods has always harboured a dream of owning a dollhouse, enchanted by the magic, playfulness, and escapism it represents. Fourteen years ago, she turned this dream into reality by channelling her lifelong passion for crafting. Today, Maureen's collection boasts over 50 exquisite miniatures, along with a workshop that captivates both children and crafty adults alike. This beloved hobby infuses her life with daily joy, and she delights in sharing it with others.

Her dollhouse collection is a testament to her meticulous attention to detail and artistic flair. Each miniature is carefully crafted, often taking hours or even days to perfect, and reflects her dedication to the art form. Maureen's workshop is a haven for creativity, where she offers classes and workshops to inspire others to explore the whimsical world of miniatures. Her passion has not only allowed her to fulfil her own dreams but has also created a community of like-minded enthusiasts who share in the joy and wonder of her creations.
