Life is uncertain. But there is one place where all is serene and predictable - the world of miniatures.
“Unlike in real life, things are perfect in the miniature world,” says Lee Thomas Seawell, 66, of Lee Thomas Miniatures in Syracuse, New York. “You can look in your miniature room and everything is right. There is no strife. There are no issues to cause tension.”
Seawell, who has been working on five custom dollhouse and miniature room projects, including a Tuscan villa and a New Orleans townhouse, is not alone in recognizing the stress-relieving effects of collecting and creating miniatures.
