Hi Brae! So happy that you sold your place and found another one. You’ll be pretty busy for a while! Poor Mr. Rat, that box looks pretty heavy for him. He’s so cute! I took a look at that website. What beautiful work she does!
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
A dedicated work space - bliss!
I’ve never seen a rat before.
They are banned where I live, both in the wild and as domestic pets.
Mr. Rat looks like rather a darling!
All the best for a stress-free move into your new home. 
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Yay! Congrats and good luck with the move!
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Congratulations!! Good luck with the move(s) and looking forward to your return!
Such a strong helper Mr Rat! Way to go :-)
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Congratulations on the new home, for selling your current place – and for the soon-to-be work room!

A big HIP HIP HOORAY for dedicated workspace! Congrats on the sale and purchase.
Tee hee at the title of the post
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
A large dedicated workspace? I’m so jealous =0) But happy that you’ll have the room that you need. Looking forward to your return.

After 25 moves(husband in the services) don’t throw anything out till the other end
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Looking forward to your return…but probably not as much as you are. Having a dedicated work space is the bee’s knees
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Huge congratulations! And here is wishing you as painless a transition as possible.
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Looks like a heavy box 
Here’s to a smooth transition for all
In response to: You've got to move it, move it!
Hahahaha! Move it!

I sympathize with your house sale. We’re in the same position; our first buyer fell thru & we’re now waiting on the 2nd buyer’s bank to give approval. Viewings ARE a pain so I thought you could use a chuckle:
just had a lady come to the door:
“Is there an open house? I saw the sign in front of the driveway”
“It’s just to show that it’s this house that’s for sale”
“Well I’ve phoned your realtor several times but she’s never gotten back to me”
> long pregnant pause
“………I was told there’s an offer on the table”
“we’re just waiting for bank approval so the deal can close….”
“Maybe I should phone her again…”

Im so J I wish I had one too (Im really bad with stuff like that I buy it or win it and then I put it on a shelf and look at it but never use it..it’s probably a good thing that I dont have one cause Im running out of shelf space)

Doll Domiciles… sigh.
I still have one of their brochures tucked away somewhere.
I was too young/poor to ever purchase anything from them but they were so covetable!
I can’t wait to see what you do with these!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Holy cow, this is great!! Love it!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Great find! It’s perfect for mid-century or before!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
What a fabulous find. It is amazing what you can find in old salt and pepper collections. When I was a child my grandmother had a huge salt and pepper collection - 100s. Unfortunately I wasn’t into miniatures then. I am sure there would have been many sets I would be able to use now in my miniatures.
In response to: Spin cycle
That is amazing!!! Even the little knobs look so real!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Awesome find! You have a great eye for such things!

What an awesome find! Oh how I remember watching Saturday morning cartoons on one like that–black and white, of course!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Where do you have the time to find these things? You are a master!!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Oh my goodness, this is brilliant!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Oh what a fabulous find! I’m happy you found such a PERFECT vintage TV

Have a nice weekend

Otterine, do you read Susan’s Mini Homes (susanshouses.blogspot.com)? Within an hour of your post (if I’ve got my time stamps right), Susan posted a photo set from one of hew houses…and she has a vintage television salt-and-pepper shaker set just like yours!
In response to: Cathode Ray Tube
Wow, Brae! An amazing find!

Add me to the list of “we miss you” friends ! Your work & blog is some thing I “go to” when feeling the need to be inspired, get ideas or just plain chill out & relax. Selling/moving can be sp stressful so here is a wish all goes smoothly & you can bring your projects back out into a workable space!
In response to: Spin cycle
It’s an amazing set, Brae! A beautiful gift!
In response to: Spin cycle
Wow! That’s amazing. Love the tiny bottle of Tide!
In response to: Spin cycle
What a find! … and the gallon of Tide is too cute!
In response to: Spin cycle
Gorgeous set! Love the details!
In response to: Spin cycle
That’s a wonderful set. What a lovely gift!

Here’s hoping the right buyer shows up soon–and may I tell you how much I admire your attitude through life’s ups and downs?
In response to: The Brownstone - timber grid stonework, part 1
Hi Brae! so Sorry your buyers fell through…. it can be a challenge to keep everything so tidy for the “viewings"! I wish you luck and a quick turn-around!
At least you do have some steps you can complete while it is still flat…. but I would be tempted to set it up anyway and have it be part of the “decor” or covered with a big sheet in the corner! LOL! It seems so unfair that we have to make a house look not lived in to make it sell-able!
I am glad to see you posting… I was just thinking how I missed seeing your fascinating work in progress!
In response to: The Brownstone - timber grid stonework, part 1
Hello Brae,
Slowly making my way back and I will have lots to catch up on. I hope your house sells quickly so you don’t have to pack everything away.
Thank you for you post on my blog.

Glad to see you and your great work back! Good luck with the house. it will be sold at the exact right time and circumstances! ;-)
In response to: The Brownstone - timber grid stonework, part 1
I’ve missed seeing your updates. I hope your house sale is settled and over soon, so that you have a bit more ‘me time’ =0)
In response to: The Brownstone - timber grid stonework, part 1
Hooray, you’re back!
In response to: The Brownstone - timber grid stonework, part 1
I’ve missed reading your blog! So glad to see you back, if only for a bit. Hopefully the next prospective buyer will step up and love the place!
While you’re on here for a bit–do you know of anyone with a door handle like a business (old) might have–with the upright curved handle that had the thumb button on top? I’m doing a bar and would love to find one of those, but so far no luck.
