| There are over 60 handmade replica vintage books in this shop window! |
This LITTLE BOOK ARCADE will go up for sale at next Saturday's Thame Dolls House & Miniatures Fair. It is a bit of fun, small enough to sit on a shelf, mantlepiece or even hang on the wall. The sash windows open so whoever purchases this can add more bits to the shelves if they wish.

| These have been given a paint effect treatment in order to give the illusion that they are aged rexine sofas just like those from the 1930s! |
I have just completed more aged sofas with handpainted 1930s style cushions, fixed books, blankets/throws etc and will also be released for sale at Thame. For the first time, these have been created with castors underneath. All items are fixed.
Also, just recently having emerged from my workroom, are four 1930s/40s gas cookers and three aged cream painted metal beds with lumpy old fashioned mattresses. One of the mattresses I have stained a little, just like old mattresses!

The book arcade is fantastic - it'll fly off the stand. Love it.

Cheers Robin....we shall see! Have still a long list of "makes" that I am hoping to get finished by next Saturday. Just wish there were a few more extra hours in the day!!! Sadly I have to find time to partake in food shopping and feed the family too.....(and sleep)!! Can be very inconvenient at times don't you think? My workroom looks like an exocet missile has hit it..can hardly get through the door!!!
