A new contest has just been announced!  Miniature Collector magazine, in collaboration with New York miniaturist Susan Santilli, presents The Bistro Kit Challenge.  You simply order your kit from Real Good Toys and create your own unique design.

Bistro Challenge Shell Kit

This contest will be presented in three parts in Miniature Collector magazine starting with the May 2013 issue, which features Susan’s inspiration for her project, resources she used, contest and kit information.  Part 2, which will be featured in the June 2013 issue, features tips and techniques from Susan, the Bistro Kit Challenge entry form and kit information.  Part 3, featured in the July 2013 issue, features the faux finish sidewalk instructions by Rik Pierce and kit information.

The contest  is a year-long event and submissions will need to be submitted by February 15, 2014.

Good luck and mini wishes – Jennifer
