The third Miniature Online Show is now open to visitors.
You can find us HERE, and we have a special discount offer valid for the duration of the show.
If you need any information or have any queries, you can contact me direct using the email link on our page.
There are over 100 exhibitors this time so I'm hoping to be able to find some time to visit as many as I can over the course of the weekend, daughter's birthday celebrations permitting.
Happy browsing......

Online show......
It's the third online miniatures show this weekend and I've set today aside to update my virtual table and list some new toys.
The show will open on Friday 9th in the evening and will remain open until 12 March. No passwords required this time, just visit the show HERE at the appointed time.
Lots more exhibitors this time round, but we're under the Dealers I tab. We'll be having a very special online show offer for visitors so we do hope you can find the time to take a look.
Righty-oh.
Better get back to it then.
No displacement activity for me today.
No by no nonny no.....
*ahem*

Happy Birthday.....!!!!!
Just have to wish my gorgeous daughter a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY today!
It's a milestone birthday but it's very uncouth to reveal a lady's age so I won't. Sooooo looking forward to her coming down for the weekend to celebrate.

Pinhead..........
Small Dog has had half a haircut.
She would have had a whole haircut but her 10 minute goodwill period only allowed for PP to trim her head, ears, neck and half her back before she became feral.
So she looks, not to put too fine a point on it, absolutely ridiculous.
I have renamed her Pinhead, which is a fairly accurate description. Tiny little shorn head, great big fluffy, shaggy body.
She is not amused.......

Spoke too soon..........
What idjit's been banging on about the advent of spring and how it's only just around the corner, yada, yada, yada......?
Predictably, following the brief spell of Elysian weather this week, the past two days have been grey and misty, and there is a persistent,cold, steady drizzle today which just saps your will to live.
Nevertheless, I am determined to maintain the optimistic view that we are finally in the dog days of winter, and that in no time time at all, buds will be bursting from the trees and all will be well with the world.
In the meantime though, it's a thoroughly miserable day and the temptation to snuggle up on the sofa with Small Dog is almost insurmountable. I suppose I could take the laptop with me, ostensibly to do some 'paperwork' and have an old film on the TV in the background.....
Sounds like a plan......

Lights....camera...... action!
Had to be up especially early this morning in anticipation of the arrival of the photographer from The Doll's House Magazine.
He's been here once before to take photos of my Victorian Toy Shop for an article in Christmas edition of the magazine a few years back, which also appeared on the cover.
On that occasion, Small Dog, in her role as Business Mascot, muscled in on the action and ended up with her photograph in the article too.
She's most definitely NO shrinking violet!
This time she kept well out of the way, apprehensive perhaps of the extensive array of equipment in evidence, as the aptly named Anthony Bailey (no relation I'm informed) took photos of my day nursery room setting for a DPS.
No. I didn't know what a DPS was either, until the blank expression on my face elicited the explanation that it refers to a Double Page Spread.
Of course it does.
How silly of me.
Anyways, the photos have been taken, all the equipment packed away, and calm has been restored.
Here's one corner of the nursery.......taken by me beforehand hence the less than perfect quality!
The son of the house, Aloysius St. John, has ambitions to go on the stage one day. Here he is sitting by his beloved Punch & Judy puppet theatre, rehearsing for the performance he is due to give to his sisters. Unfortunately he has misplaced his swazzle, without which the show cannot proceed.
I hesitate to suggest an interrogation of the usual suspect to identify the phantom swazzle swallower........

March Kit of the Month........
The past few days have been a whirlwind of activity in the Tower House Dolls workroom as I really wanted to get our new home workshop packs ready in time for March 1st.
Which is today.
I've even surprised myself that it is actually ready...... I'm usually a complete doofus when it comes to deadlines. However my pre-Thame Fair work ethic is still in evidence, so I've been completely focused on the task at hand this week, disdaining the temptations of displacement activity and the Interweb.
*ahem*
So we are pleased to announce the release today of our March Kit of the Month......
*insert anticipatory drum roll here*
Kits are now available to purchase on our website HERE!
