The Undersized Urbanite dollhouse contest has a new sponsor! (Can you tell I’m a little excited?!)
Miniaturas magazine (Facebook page here) has offered a free year subscription to the three winners. Not only that, the editor would like to feature the three winner’s projects in the magazine!
According to About.com Miniatures, Miniaturas is an “exceptionally well produced magazine” with a “wide range of easy to follow projects, many with a European flair.” It also includes “full sized centerfolds of a featured collection plus high quality printables in most editions.”
Now, the tricky part is that, being from Madrid, the magazine is published in Spanish. But, according to another About.com review, the photographs are exceptional and the projects are easy to follow even without reading Spanish.
At the current exchange rate, a one year subscription is worth $108 USD. Which doubles the value of even the first place prize. Never mind the cash value, though, the winners will have the opportunity to be featured in print!
I am really excited about Miniaturas offer and I’m sure you will be too, once you read the reviews (here and here). Really happy for those of you who are still sticking through the competition, it’s awesome to be able to give you a boost of incentive and offer you a way more valuable prize at the last minute.
Now get back to work so you can get featured!
Oh my that’s big! Wohoo. What an acknowledgement for the contest!
I’m happy to tell that I’ve finally pushed my project forward. Approaching deadline is the greatest motivator 🙂
Yay!
The deadline just hit me this morning…it’s less than a month away. I am so far behind. 🙂
Wow that is soooo cool, the deadline just hit me too, I still have to finish the kitchen and the bathroom, really need to start working on it this weekend. This motivates me even more. Thank you.
Can’t wait to see what you’ve been working on Ginger!
That’s very exciting!! 😀
Fabulous! Thanks Christina!
Cheers, Neen
That’s so cool! Kind of funny that it’s in Spanish, not complaining though, I can sort of read it.
Thanks Christina!
Impeccable timing, I needed some motivation this week. 🙂
Well you can read it better than I can, then. When I get the copy with the winners in it, I’ll have to ask you what it says! 😉
Wow, that’s impressive. I’d love a subscription to any mini mag, although I fear how that would increase my “to be tried” pile. Very exciting. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s progress.
I know it! It’s pretty selfish of me, but I wouldn’t mind if your “to be tried” pile had more minis in it…I love watching your projects. 😉
By the way, I’m going to attempt to follow your printed rug tutorial this week.
OMG THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!!! Wooohoooooooo!
Pressure is on to finish and get some good pictures. 🙂 I should have a post up later today.
Amazing. So generous!
I love anything that has to do with art. The fact that you can create these beautiful doll houses is awesome, it is tedious work, but well worth it in the end, so many people are doing beautiful things, love the victorian houses the best, im glad I found this site, im looking to be in tune with the Mini loves of doll homes and dolls, So let’s take this to a new level miniature worlds.com 🙂
