Salt Lake City Temple

A few years ago I had the honor of meeting (via email) the artists of the Peter McCann Architectural Models Inc. This Canadian company has been commissioned to build models of the world's most magnificent buildings. This model of the Salt Lake Temple in Salt Lake City, UT is 1:32 (3/8" = 1'), and the detail is remarkable. Look closely MINI friends and you will recognize the light fixtures that I assisted with and which many of us use in our dollhouses! I have many highlights of my 30+ year career in all things MINI; this ranks right up there as one I will always remember! ~judy www.justminiaturescale.com

A magnificent 1:32 model of the Salt Lake Temple in Salt Lake City, UT. This is one of many of the remarkable models built by the Peter McCann Architectural Agency

•A 16-member team constructed the model in five months, after several months of preparation.
•Experts were brought in with specialized skills in model construction, including an electrical engineer and craftsmen who constructed the chandeliers, the structure, parts and interior paintings.
•Materials used in the model include acrylic plastic, heavy card stock, brass, wood, gold leaf and glass.
•The model was built in eight different sections. Each section is independent of each other.

Look closely MINI friends and you will recognize the beautiful chandeliers many of us use in our projects and dollhouses! I had the honor of supplying the lighting fixtures. 

Every detail depicts the beauty of this amazing building.
