I would love to know how you made the counter and back piece with the tiny rails. Your shop is amazing I love it. dollchitchat/confused0068.gif and you got a pregnant lady to, wow. dollchitchat/bearhugblinkie1.gif

Avrilm- 12-10-2007
Hi Veronica,
The counter back piece is 2 shelf units with a piece of Balsa wood cut into the shape I wanted and long enough to join the units together..Kebab skewers make great rails for hanging my knitting from..and a mirror set in the middle ..I also papered the inside of the shelves with the same paper I have on the walls so they blend in better..the counter was a light wood one which I repainted white and stuck baby decals on to it..the balloons and baby stickers I got from baby cards and scrapbooking items I had in my stock box..Hope this helps..

The customer inside the store is pregnant..and the lady in the white smock outside the shop is also pregnant..with fimo shaped baby bumps... laugh.gif

Hugs

Avril - there is only one word for it "PERFECT" - I just love everything in this shop and the pregnant ladies is just the icing on the cake - thank you so much for showing us - I just love looking at everyone's miniatures.

Love Sue

dollchitchat/x1.gif dollchitchat/x1.gif dollchitchat/x1.gif Avril it is outstanding. I love the counter. The highchair with peter rabbit is just so cute. It is all amazing. Well done you are an inspiration. I am working now on a shop I have had for ages. I cannot afford much to put in it but it is to be a fortune tellers. I really need to make things for it and that is why you are so inspiring.
love ruth
