Meet Teri . . .

GET TO KNOW ME • GET TO KNOW ME • 

Who believes everyone can be creative and that “Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder”.

I specialize in crafting miniature kits, SVG files, and pre-made miniatures.

My website offers tutorials, design inspiration, and a variety of miniature kits for purchase. I am passionate about sharing my enthusiasm for miniatures with others, encouraging them to explore new skills and materials while making one-of-a-kind miniatures. My philosophy is that if you are happy with what you have created, then it is a success because mini-making should be a fun and rewarding experience and only you can be the judge of what you make!

I now have two websites you can visit depending on your needs . . .

  • The Covered Chipboard which is for papercrafted projects, cricut type SVG files, and some minis
  • Teri Hanson Miniatures which is for laser-cut miniature structures and furniture wood kits

Both sites have their own store where you can purchase my products. I also currently have an Etsy shop but due to rising fees on Etsy, this shop will likely either close down sometime in 2026 or I will only carry a small amount of items in this shop. I don’t like having to charge more for products in Etsy simply to cover the high seller fees. I feel it’s just not fair to customers.

Collaborations

I am always looking for other miniaturists to collaborate with and have some fun or create something unique to share with others. I also love to do challenges with other designers if you are interested.

If you are interested in a collaboration, please do get in touch with me to discuss your ideas!

My 2026 calendar is full but I am open to opportunities for 2027.

Scratch build

Steampunk Watchtower

Sometimes, when you have no clear vision of what you want to create or how to create it, the best thing to do is to simply dive in and start playing with what you have. That’s exactly what I did with this build.

RGT 1:12 Scale Lighthouse

Emerald Coven Lighthouse

This is an ongoing update build to the Real Good Toys Lighthouse. It was first built with a beach theme, partially destroyed in a move, and is now becoming a light coven shop with a couple of innkeepers. Stay tuned for monthly updates as soon as I get back to the project.
