3 Blind Mice - January 2012 mini show

by brae Email

I am lucky to live in an area that has a mini show of some sort every few months as well as the larger Bishop International Show in April every year.  This weekend, I attended the 3 Blind Mice show.  :]

I met Carol of True 2 Scale.  It was fun putting a face to a name.  :D  You may recall I made her milk carton flower kit for the Heritage.  I picked up two of her glitter house kits - the Haunted House and the Barn.  She has amazing kits, so be sure to check out her website!  I already have her florist boxes and a cake box kit, though I haven't worked with those just yet.

I picked up a small round side table for the Heritage parlor.  I was going to make something for this space, but the color and style work well for the setting.

I like that it coordinates but doesn't necessarily match the style of the coffee table.  Grandma has eclectic taste like me!  And, this one is the right color to start.  A good buy, I must say!

The Chrysolite table lamp I bought previously fits perfectly!

I hadn't planned to buy much since I have most of what I need for my current project, but I did pick up an online order from Missy at Green Gables Dollhouse.  I figured it was just as easy to pick it up in person at the show as to have her ship it, and we got to meet in person after talking online and on the phone a number of times.  :D  You'll see those items in future posts.

You are lucky, there is only ONE fair in Italy and we must be happy with it.
It is held in February and I cannot look forward to it. Then I'll go to Simp in Paris just because it is the "closer" to Genoa.
i'll wait to see your new items. Have fun, Rosanna

That little table you picked up fits like a glove in that corner and it compliments that gorgeous lamp.

Darling little table! Thanks for the info on 3 Blind Mice shows...I found one in Pittsburgh in March. I am about 2 hours west of Pitts. Putting it on my calendar! Btw, I bought another dollhouse kit today. Picked it up at an antique mall. Greenleaf "The Coventry'. Good price!~Patti
