THE ANTIQUITIES SHOP
by
Bob Francis
from an original design by Suzanne & Andrews Miniatures
NEW PICS - December 20!
This 3 floor structure, set on a cobblestone base, will be completed as a small
Antiquities Shop on the main floor with the proprietor's living quarters on the
upper two floors.
New photos show nicer views of the shop, plus
-
shelves/fixtures for the main floor shop
-
furnishings for the Bedroom on top floor
Still to come:
-
more furnishings for Kitchenette/Sitting area on middle floor
If you wish to wallpaper your interior, I will have a selection of quarter inch
scale wallpapers for purchase or you may bring your own.
Saturday will focus on completing the structure (hopefully!) and Sunday morning
will focus on the furnishings for the interior.
