Murphy's Law of Miniaturing

by Barbara J. Campbell

- If you need two lengths of skirting, you will only have one and a half.

- The chair leg you meant to cut short is the other one.

- The pattern you want to use again will have one key piece missing.

- Whenever the construction process is going well the glue runs out.

- If you drop something it will be your glue bottle.......with the lid off.

- The knife cuts easiest when it is going crooked.

- Fusible Vylene always fuses to the iron.

- Your lost minitack will be found by your husband...while walking around barefoot.

- The wall paper sticks best when it is crooked.

AND

- The magnitude of the goof is in direct proportion to the cost of the article/kit.
