This coming Saturday, I'm taking a M.E.E. workshop given by Linda Austin. I am SO excited!
We will be learning to make 1:12 scale jewellery.

I've had this storefront (think it's Reutter) for years. Until now, it has been filled with special minis.
|
Sorry. This is the best picture I could get with the glass in. |

Top row: ginger jar (unsigned), vase (think it's by Porcelain Fantasies) Second row: cranberry glass (?), silver candlesticks and egg cups by John Meacham Third row: Reutter vase, silver ladle (by me at a John Meacham class; covered divided silver-plate dish; silver knife (another John Meacham class); silver goblet by Greg Matusovsky; peacock with tail down Fourth row: Bouquet of roses; Tudor (?) woman; spun glassbird bath with two birds; Toby jug turned vase by Tom Saunders |

Needlework by Luba Barnes Red vases (unsigned but sure they're Janice Crawley's work. Middle piece is unsigned. |
I think this (now empty) storefront will be perfect to display much of the jewellery from Saturday's class. If I really concentrate on Saturday, I should be able to fill it and actually complete something!

Removed all by Luba's needlework. |
Seven years ago, I bought the
Cerveny store roombox from Alex at
Miniland. It has just been sitting here waiting for me to decide what to do with it and I think I have it!
Since this is an eclectic collection of really nice pieces, I think maybe I need to make a shop to include them.
I got this shelving and the counters from a club estate sale. Beautifully made.
Here are some of the pieces I would put in the shop:

Unsigned but beautifully made. |
|
Signed BK87 |
|
Sterling Hall Fine Miniatures. Books are by Barbara Brear. |
Think I would maybe have to only put in the night stand and bureau from the bedroom set with just a picture of the bed.
Will have to put a lot of thought into this.
For now, all I can do it concentrate on the jewellery and the store front.
