    Have a lovely holiday!
    The red fabric, the strange yellow tape measure, the patterns and the rather wonky tiny little pair of golden scissors originally came with the body form. I bought the exact same set in the 90s. It wasn't cheap back then. Well worth the price you paid for the whole lot.
    In my mum's dollhouse, a granny lives in the attic in a sewing room with the body form, an ironing board etc.
    I am already looking forward for Minimas. I bought the first gingerbread this weekend. 😂

    I have lived with doll houses, miniatures and tiny creations. Loved paper dolls. I have a very large printer’s tray mounted on the wall in my guest room filled with miniatures. Never get tired of arranging items and playing with them. Your little home is so cozy. I pretend I’m spending an afternoon with both of you drinking tea and eating cucumber sandwiches while designing the next addition. 💕

    I used to collect those little ceramic animals and I had this set and the kittens had a beautiful momma. I would save my allowance and buy sets of the little animals as I could. That brought back great memories for this old lady.

    The little kittens are by Hagen Renaker in California. They are no longer made. Yours are in really good shape!! Those things can fetch a pretty price so you got a great deal. I have a large collection of the cats and dogs. Have a great holiday. 😊

    For your sewing room - a suggestion - I saw a mini embroidery hoop in our local antique shop which sells some doll's house bits. I thought I could have a go so I made one from that thin wood round Camembert cheese. I soaked it in hot water to curve it smaller and made the two hoops and put some very fine cotton on them. I've yet to do a wee bit of embroidery on it. It's for a Gypsy wagon (Vardo) which I'm gradually doing up. Re things seen from above, it will open from above but also be able to be seen through the door. Really looking forward to steaming ahead on it very soon!

    I believe your little phone is Pit-a-Pat, a line of furniture made in England in the 30’s and 40’s. It is a bit bigger than 1/16 and I’ve used it in 1/12 doll’s house. It’s very collectible and somewhat rare, good buy.
    Happy Holiday!

    I wonder how old they are?
    I'm glad you are happy with this collection and i love the sound of a sewing room make. So many ideas and so little time in a day to make. Especially when looking for a home for yourself Kate. Good luck with that adventure. Oh and thanks for giving me the yawns. They're catching you know. 😂 x

    @Sohi1388 4 месяца назад +3

    I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before and I know you guys mainly like old vintage and found things, but I still recommend looking into re-ment miniatures from japan, in this instance, re-ment petite sample series, grandmas sewing room. It has a lot of great things in the set including a fold out sewing box, a sewing machine, tiny tiny thread scissors and even the stereotypical cookie tin sewing kit (though the stuff inside looks like sewing themed cookies). There several different themes that could work for so many different rooms, but again, it’s all modern made and can get pretty pricey.

    Hello, Ladies. Wonderful price for that mini lot, Fleur. I also recall a small goblet placed where a seal would be on (a brandy bottle?) in the early 70s. Kate, particularly on a warm day, yawning is a side effect of a lack of oxygen. No worries. : ) A lovely holiday to you and yours. The absence of your videos will only make us miss you more and we can always re-watch past videos, as they are all enjoyable. : ) They will do until you return refreshed and ready for your next lark or project. Much Love from this ol' Nor Cali gal across the pond.

    The kittens are by Hagen-Renaker. I had some as a child. Even the kittens could be in your sewing room-- after all, what is a sewing room without a cat to lay down in the middle of your fabric when you are trying to cut your pattern out? By the way, "unopened" (past tense) is used as an adjective describing any package d thing that hasn't yet been opened.
