I would like to say a big hello and welcome to all my new followers. I hope you enjoy your visit :) If I have not followed you in return please leave a comment so that I can find you :)  I have at last started to get back into miniature making lol  it has taken me a while I just could not seem to get started but I gave myself a good talking too ( I do that a lot hehe) and so I started by making shelves for my rather neglected toy shop. I had to make them because its in the attic part of the house and it slopes down completely. I am rather pleased with it and it gives me lots of room for toys. Here is some pictures. I hope you like :)

Here with some toys on it though I haven't decided how to lay the toys out yet.

I have lots more work to do on it yet but I have at last made a start :D
I have also made a few toys for it.
Some pull along toys and 2 little dolls made from beads and pipe cleaners. these are my first dolls. I need to experiment with these :) 

Some stacking toys.

A closer look at the pull along's  the rhino is a bead and the other is a little wooden horse that I put a thread tail and mane on. .

I hope you like :)
Thank you all for your visits to my blog and thank you for all the wonderful comments that you leave.
Have a great rest of week. 
Hugs to all my Friends

Looking good! Check out my Glenwood's attic - I made some shelves in there like yours!


I have been looking for a good bead shop in my area that has the charms. I found a website that has silver ones that can easily be painted

You're shelves look perfect for the attic and the toys are so cute, job well done I think!! Taking a break from minis good as it helps clear your head from all the creative 'overload' but you always have that niggling feeling pulling you back to starting as soon as you can... I think it's called love?
Hugs, Mins xxx

Comparing to me you're doing a lot in miniature, Maria!:) No worries about the breaks, we need it sometimes! I like your collection of toys!:)

It is a good way to take advantage of the sloping walls on. Exciting with all your toys, I look forward to seeing more.
When I saw your new front page today, I thought that it is also one of my ideas about Ireland, very green and open spaces. Then it hit me I have been in Ireland, I have been to Dublin. My oldest daughter lived there after high school. We visited her, of course. A very exciting and lively city that one day I would like to visit again. I love city breaks.

I'm so glad you listened to yourself... ;O) That shelf is a clever solution to cope with the walls - and it will be perfect to show all your toy treasures. What you've done so far looks gorgeous, I especially like the lion, great idea! Hope you'll show us more soon - and not to forget: Your new header looks beautiful!

Greetings

Hello Maria,
What a beautiful toy shop!
The shelves look great and are such a great use of the space! And those toys. Your collection should be shown in a museum! Everything is lovely and I think your hand made toys are great! You always do such an amazing job.
Big hug,
Giac

The shelves are a great solution and I love your little selection of toys to date. This exercise has probably got you on to thinking "now, what other toys could I make?" and before you know it, you'll have loads!

esto promete...

mijbil said...

Of all miniature things, toys are probably my favourite (maybe because they are already so tiny in real life, which makes their tiny version even cuter!). Hope to see more pics soon, your shop looks great so far! :)

CARMEN (Hadanet) said...

Que buena idea Maria, te va a quedar genial y ya tienes muchos juguetes para llenarla, seguire tu avances.
Besitooos.

Eliana said...
