A walnut-panelled doorway with a brass arch. Through it, a warm room with a gold glass cart holding a miniature street on its top shelf.

A collection, up close

Shirley’s Mini World

Kits, builds, and tiny specialty pieces, shown the way they look when you’re the one at the table.

Scroll down to go in.

Through the doorway, a gold cart with two glass shelves.

Looking down at the top glass shelf of the gold cart: a row of shop kits, a red phone booth, a cherry tree in bloom, and a small park.

The top shelf holds a whole street. Keep going down.

At street level among the shop kits: a café with a green striped awning, a blue ramen shop with a noren curtain, a red phone booth, and yellow chicks on the glass.

No. 01 · Top shelf

A street on a gold cart

Shop kits stand side by side, with a red phone booth on the corner and a cherry tree in bloom. Small yellow chicks wander between them.

On the lower glass shelf: crates of tiny records, wooden speakers, a gold record plaque, a pink vinyl in a clear case, a small black camera, a yellow double fryer, and a mint rice cooker.

No. 02 · Lower shelf

Records, a fryer, a rice cooker

One shelf down, music and kitchen pieces share the glass: record racks, wooden speakers, a gold record, and a pink vinyl in its own clear case. A yellow double fryer and a mint rice cooker sit nearby.

Two clear acrylic display cases on a white dresser with chevron wood drawers. Small furnished rooms fill each level, wooden shop kits sit on top, and a blue dollhouse room fills one side.

No. 03 · Along the dresser

Rooms in clear cases

Two clear cases hold small rooms on every level. Wooden shop kits sit on top, and a blue dollhouse room fills one side.

A kit in progress on a walnut table: a green cutting mat, a sheet of laser-cut wooden parts, a half-built tiny chair, tweezers, a craft knife, a glue bottle, and tiny porcelain plates.

No. 04 · The workbench

Where a room starts

Before it’s a room, a kit is a sheet of flat parts. Pieces get popped out, trimmed, glued, and left to dry while the next one waits.

The bottom of the world, for now

There’s more on the way.
