Melanie J. Flegal is familiar with magic.
Artist entrepreneur Melanie describes herself as a “fairy homemaker”. For her small business, Meldogminiatures, she creates woodland dioramas, doll houses, doll house furniture and accessories, and just about anything else imaginable.
Melanie’s enchanting miniatures include a custom-made tree-trunk dollhouse and a welcoming-looking woodland neighborhood bar, where you can easily imagine the forest gnomes stopping in for an acorn brew, after work. And she’s currently at work on some Christmas-themed dioramas for Christmas 2014.
Melanie talked about her experiences as a creative entrepreneur, and offered a preview of the special gift items she’s creating.
