Not Your Mom's Dollhouse by Mary Davos Sullivan (sp, 2021). Sizes: 0.75" x 1.0"
I don't usually focus on Dollhouse-sized (or 1:12) books but wanted to fill up an empty shelf on a Dollhouse-sized bookshelf that found its way to me. I was introduced to Mary Davos Sullivan's work with Dollhouse-sized books through the Instagram feed of Pulitzer Award-winning art critic Jerry Saltz. Mary's books allowed me to soothe my soul by filling up the middle bookshelf:

I don't usually acquire blank books but did for Mary's work through her "Not Your Mom's Dollhouse" project when I realized all this artist needed was the book covers for her "canvas"es. Here's what joined the Miniature Book Library--scenes with books on a table are from Mary's dollhouse photographs:

In 2022 I reshelved the books in a chocolate box from Earth & Sky Chocolates (Calistoga, CA). Here are updated photos of the book bon bons:
