Back to the storefront box I bought at the dollhouse and minis auction in November. I cleaned it up, went through my many boxes of stuff, and made a junk store . . . pardon me, an antiques shop. Great way to display items rolling around in boxes, and if I need one for a new setting, I know where to find it. Scroll for photos.
The store offers a selection of mirrors and old photographs as well as walking sticks and umbrellas, and a clock I made from scratch (one of the first pieces I made myself).
Shelves are filled with items I’ve stashed over the years: from an artisan made candlestick phone to the Dolls’ Cobbler shoes to a stereoscope from an old Chrysnbon kit. I seem to have a plethora of non-working oil and kerosene lamps too.
Here you can see some of the Christmas items I pulled out of the original store: Gingerbread houses, Santa-in-a-box toy; and Santa pull toy.
Needed a close-up of the demon cat. I bought this at a show because it reminded me of the terrorizing kitty I had at the time. She sadly passed away, but I have this green-eyed demon cat to remind me of her.

Hmmm, I have a white demon cat with same look on her face, I will have to find one of those mini versions. I love the idea of a junk, er, antique shop to store decorative miniatures until you “buy” them for a room or house.
Still love your blog,
