CDHM Artisan Kris Compas

My name is Kris Compas and I am 1 inch minis.  I make 1 inch scale reasonably priced, quality upholstered furniture.  I have a blog on techniques.  I experiment with different techniques and how to's: www.1inchminisbykris.blogspot.com. 
Please look up the article in "Miniature Collector", April, 2009, pages 24 -27, Miniatures on a Budget.  You will get an idea of what I make.
I want to keep my prices low, that's why I use only cottons.  They are reletively easy to get and easy to use.  That doesn't mean that I will not be attentive to quality.  The pieces I make will be mostly one of a kind.  I buy my fabric from everywhere and usually only buy a third of a yard. 
I cut my own wooden legs, whether they are round, square or cabriole.  I dowel them into the bottom the furniture so they will be sturdy. 



Shipping information:
  I use the U.S. Postal Service.  I live in a rural area so this is easier for me.  I am setting the shipping charge at $7.00 per piece or set (like the slipper chair set).  This is for shipping in the U.S.A.   Shipping for overseas is $15.00.
You can still contact me and purchase with a money order.

 www.inchminisbykris.blogspot.com  is my blog, I try to have a tutorial up by the 20th of every month, stop by and see what you can make.

I am not taking any custom orders at this time.
