Old Dolls House Gallery Up & Running At Last Plus A Bit Of Chit Chat!

It may have taken me much longer than anticipated...but am chuffed to say that at long last the Old Dolls House Gallery on KT Miniatures website is now fully live and kicking....hoorah!
These rare Beatrice Hindley plants are now featured  amongst the pages of KT Miniatures' Old Dolls House Gallery
Wendy Stephen's G&J Lines circa 1910 features in Collection Six
Alicia Davies' Lines No 10 circa 1906 features in Collection One

If you are a fan of antique and vintage dolls houses....and you have plenty of time to spare,then you may wish to browse through the Old Dolls House Gallery on KT Miniatures' website (there is a permanent link along the very top navigation bar of the website).

You can see my much cherished c1930s Hobbies 186 Special dolls house amongst the collections

There is a fantastic selection of private collections containing all kinds of houses and miniatures spanning over many decades from the Victorian, right through to the 1970s era.  I have also included one or two videos of  old dolls houses sold by KT Miniatures over the years  plus a couple of 1930s houses from my own personal collection. Due to a special request from a customer, I have also included information of the gorgeous and extremely rare Beatrice Hindley plants sold earlier this year by KT Miniatures.
Jesamine's  Tri-ang  Jennys Home Tower features in Collection Two

Marilyn Pittman's Bliss House features in Collection Eight

Customers Have Been Wondering Where I Have Been This Past Month.... Well...I have been around....honest, but working quietly in the background on KT Miniatures website, tidying up loose ends and sorting out workshop "stuff".  Have also been away on a lovely holiday and have also been somewhat distracted by family matters. In the past couple of weeks, my eldest celebrated his 30th birthday, my youngest celebrated her 18th birthday plus we had to endure with baited breath her A level results!!! But we can breathe a sigh of relief as it is now all over. Youngest got her A levels and is now off to uni....three weeks today so there is still much to sort out. 

Meanwhile....
Both Robin and I are very much looking forward to seeing you all who are booked to attend our latest workshop on Sunday at Waterperry Gardens. 

See you all at 10.30am...all bright and bushy tailed!!!!

Celia


PS. Booking will open on Monday for our brand new Saturday November 30th all day workshop that is taking place in Thame.....so watch this space!!!

The Old Doll House Gallery looks great. I've only had a time to have a quick look so far but I see I am going to have to put an evening aside to look at all the wonderful houses in the gallery. Thanks for putting it together.
