I’ve tried to include vendors where possible. I am sometimes bad with keeping track of what came from where so I made a point to be more diligent this time around.
From Wright Guide Miniatures: matches, shoe polish, and a cobalt bottle I’ll make a label for before using. They have a set of awesome vignettes on display using their items – just wonderful stuff!
A pair of pedestals from Carol’s Bloomers to finish off the front steps. I’ll paint them to coordinate better with the stone.
A frame for above the fireplace from Small Talk (no web address), shown here with a quick printout of my original artwork titled Favored Knight. I will change the coloration so it’s not so bright and shiny.
From the same vendor, I bought several colors of tiny punched Impatiens flower shapes (not for the Heritage). I’ve looked at these many times at shows, never bought them and always wished I had. :] I have some flower punches of my own, but nothing that makes shapes as small as these.
From Mini-Tiques: a pewter sugar bowl that looks like an urn, a wine bottle with removable cork, a pewter ring holder, and several packages of Grandt Line widow’s walk in 1:48 scale (look at the new penny design!).
One of the finest (and most expensive) miniature purchases to date: a pair of sterling silver griffin candlesticks. These are crafted by Don Henry for Small Treasures Miniatures.
The detailing on them is incredible. They stand just 15/16″ tall without the candles.
