Playing havoc...

It seems that old toys are popular at our vintage markets

but they are also becoming harder to find

so I've been doing a bit of 'restoration'.

It looked like a mini pink boudoir at first

but the sanding revealed...

'Tri-ang Stores'

so it has become a labour of love.

I'm a bit low on stock at the moment...

just herb pots wrapped in can labels so far but I have a mini shopping list.

I was looking for a till or perhaps some scales but

I found some cute pots and pans that I couldn't resist.

A little shelf solved my cooking problem,

with coasters for hot plates, a few knobs, hooks and a clock cut from a book.

I'm cooking on gas!

(electricity, actually)

I have no oven (yet) but with a suitcase full of mini baking gear

it's only a matter of time... 

When did cooking become this much fun?

Fancy a chip?

We are planning to downsize next year...

this could be the answer.

I like my mini world.

Crafty ways makes shopping fun.
