Welcome to Wizards and Wands. My blog dedicated to the residents of my miniature village and houses. Here you will find tales from the characters in my 12th scale houses and shops and some of my favourite miniature wands and possessions. A little bit of fun from a magical, but rainy Wales x

Meeting the Peeswick Family




My first family to move into Hazel Hill are the Peeswick Family.
 Handsculpted for me by Joy of Adora Bella Dolls they are deligfhtful and perfect for the scene setting I have in Hazel Hill.

Angus is the head of the household and runs the village Apothecary....




Whilst 'mum' Alice runs the local magical pet shop.....




where Neville their 'son' will call in to on his way home from gathering newts!!





Inside the Petshop, there is a variety of little magical creatures, hand made for me by Nicky


There is Casius the Crow, who refuses to sit in his cage and would much rather perch on top!!



and Rompold the Rat, who sits on the shop counter guarding his stacks of magic tips!!




The pet shop is yet to be named and will be filled with yet more magical creatures, some of which I already have but have yet to photograpgh.. so I will edit this post this week :0)

Then along came the witches...



My very first witch was made by my hubby and dressed by me... she's not perfect, but.. she has the most amazing fingernails and a really pointy witches chin and nose. She will eventually have a nice little witches stall to lord over in one of Hazel Hill streets.


The first witch I purchased was the lovely Agatha.....




Julie of Bellabelle Dolls sculpted her and she is delightful. She lives in Hazell Hill at Tumbleton Tower, but can often can be found reading to the little witches in the Wizards and Wands Bookstore.

She has wonderful stripey stockings and black shoes 




My little witch is Mischievious Maddy
Bought at Miniatura 2009, she was made by our lovely Nicky of Nickys Dolls and Critters
She is lovely and this photo doesn't do her justice, so I will take another one soon!




Then along came Gertie and she is very special. Hubby bought her for my birthday at Minatura 2010 and then he went onto make her a wonderful cottage and glasshouse of her own ;0)




Jain of Giddy Kipper Dolls sculpted her and I never fail to smile when I peek through her cottage window and see her snoozing by the fire :0)
