Bishop, day 1; 3 Blind Mice, day 2 – 2014

April 13, 2014

Went to the Bishop Show on Friday for the preview sale.

First, the item up is the one I couldn’t show you the other night.  Two fox doorknockers in brass from Ron Stetkewicz Miniatures.

Jane Graber pottery.  There’s one more piece I’ll be ordering from her directly since she didn’t have more there.

Twilla’s Tiny Treasures.  I bought two more birdhouse kits like the one I made for The Aero Squadron Lounge.

She also had the tiniest pine cones which she said she harvested after a wind storm before anyone could trample them.  :D

Lisa’s Little Things. These kits looked beautiful in the display, though it is hard to tell the amazing detail from the package photos.

Griffin box.

Small and long treasure boxes.  There are two boxes in each kit.

Tea chest.

Wendy’s Miniatures.  She had such an amazing collection of geodes, fossils, gemstones and other curiosities.

Vilia Miniature.  I have one of these sinks already, but I have an idea for another.

These stacking trays came in blue, red and green.

Vitreus Ignis.  Tiny glass paperweight.  She had a lot of wonderful designs.  It was so hard to choose.

Ray Storey lighting.  I always find great stuff here.  :D

Miniature Atelier 2CV.  Wonderful modern hardware.  They had intricate metalwork inserts for doors and windows as well as beautifully made furniture and lamps.

Ulus Miniaturas.  The smallest tape measure ever!!!

L. Delaney.  These quilts are printed on paper towel.

The detail and texture are amazing.

She had a bed made up with one as well as some folded in a cabinet…very realistic.

I also picked up this tile with a bird.  She said these were images from Pompeii.

Sir Thomas Thumb.  Carpenter’s square.

He also had loose Chrysnbon sinks, tubs and toilets.  The tubs didn’t have the feet, and the toilets didn’t have the tanks, but they would be great for bashing into custom pieces.  I picked up a bunch of the sinks since I love them and don’t want to buy the whole kit every time I want the sink.  I also picked up some fencing which you will see on the Brownstone.

Then back to 3 Blind Mice.

All About Miniatures.  Greg kept putting more things out for us to peruse.  :D  First is a window with arched shutters…awesome.

A working gate.

Old World Tile kits.

I love these!

Hartland Miniatures.  Chrysnbon pitcher paired with two glasses.

Chrysnbon candy dishes.

Brushed metal salt and pepper shakers.
