Local Man Creates Miniature Marvels

What started as a summertime activity to stay busy while a broken leg healed has blossomed into more than 20 years of creating miniature replicas of everyday objects. We revisit Chicago Tonight's profile of CoRiccio Baskin.

What's new for Lil' Thangz?

A collection of Baskin’s miniatures will on display at the Richton Park Library during the month of August, and on Aug. 26, Baskin will host a public workshop.

See a slideshow of Baskin making a tiny toilet paper roll with a step-by-step guide. Visit the Lil' Thangz Facebook page for more guides and images.
