It is amazing to see so many items of such high quality up close and all in one place! But a little overwhelming too! And unfortunately I also have the problem of starting too many new dollhouses before the others are finished.... but wait... that's the FUN of it....! So maybe it really isn't a problem at all!

But I always want her to see some of the things other people are doing that I find so fascinating....!<br />And yes... the stories "come with" the items... I just can't help it!! I am trying to figure out how to make the settings I need to tell these stories.... Not enough Houses for all of them! Of course... I also want to build the houses I "see" in the stories.... I think I need to build a Stage... and change the scenery to fit the story.... But that is really a whole other project....! We shall see what I manage to come up with.... and hopefully it won't take me Forever!!!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-7495103067683368412013-06-13T21:04:43.290-04:002013-06-13T21:04:43.290-04:00Thank you Sharee!

I was trying to only buy what I couldn't make for myself... porcelain and metal items are high on the list! The doll was so unexpected.... not really on my list at all... but irresistible in the end! I am so glad I bought her... she really is enchantingly lovely in "person"! And the tiny scissors I have coveted for a long time... the thimble was an unexpected bonus! It is discoveries like that that make this hobby so much fun! Who knew they even made thimbles that small!!!

And everyone from that 1st fair will have a special place always. <br /><br />You have made so much progress with all your projects, I am sure your sister and you have a great time bonding over them :).

She is obviously interested in your work and you have quite a catalogue to daydream over! But NOW I have dolly envy! Your little porcelain doll is wonderful and I love that you have placed her in the Book Nook,, one of my very favorite spaces! I know that you are going to have lots of enjoyment playing with all your new purchases. I also have SCISSOR ENVY! What a wonderful array of scissors, even teeny tiny embroidery scissors!!! I lLOVE THEM ALL! You have a lot to keep you busy! Wasn't going to the fair Fun!? Nothing beats a day of shopping for minis in an environment like that. <br /><br />elizabethelizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-64261333689489017342013-06-05T16:49:00.186-04:002013-06-05T16:49:00.186-04:00The doll is gorgeous! and I like the nativity scen...The doll is gorgeous! and I like the nativity scene too =)<br />HannahHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06976324431231714576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-71928605475341926242013-06-05T14:00:04.135-04:002013-06-05T14:00:04.135-04:00I kind of envy your sister... because she was able...I kind of envy your sister... because she was able to look at all of these miracles with her own eyes... ;O) You've made some fantastic purchases - and that tiny doll... so lovely.
