Bobbi Jo's Miniatures and Dollhouses

Bobbi Jo (Barbara) Krakenberg, miniature hobbyist and owner of Bobbi Jo's Miniatures and Dollhouses in Spokane Valley, has been an avid miniature hobbyist since receiving her first dollhouse as a child. Krakenberg personally designs and searches for specific pieces to enhance each of her prolonged projects. Her 22-year-old store is mostly found by fellow miniature hobbyists through word of mouth. Miniatures, she says, is a lifetime hobby.

Inlander intern Natalie Rieth recently talked with Krakenberg about the growing popularity of miniatures. Read the story here.
