Toy Shop - update

Hello,

Here is an update of my toy shop.

At the moment I try to grouping the toys.

Some of my toys are to big for the shleves!

For this project I have also a little shopping list:

a till,

little cars / planes (model railway)

The last months I was cutting out a lot of printies (toys, button cards.....)

and I have done a lot of cross stitching

which you can see on my second blog:

Die kleine Puppenschneiderei / Litte Doll's Dressmaker Kit

For my toy shop I have done a doll's dressmaker kit.

On the internet I was searching for images which I can use for this project.

I was happy to find one. My next problem was to find a 

red fabric with tiny tiny white dots...... and a naked baby doll. 

I am really happy about the result.

When I was a child I had a little sewing machine. 

Now I am searching for little sewing machine

which I can put later in my haberdashery shop..

Greeting from the Belgium seaside

Doll's pram

 

 

I have upholstered a little doll's pram.

The doll's pram was 2013 in Els's advent calendar.

 

The biggest problem was to find the right fabric.

A fabric which is not so dominate.

 

I will put some of my new soft toys (raabbit, teddy bear and teddy girl) in the pram.

 

Els once again thank you for the pram.

 

Kiss

X-mas is coming / Part 1...a teddy & a rabbit

 

I know x-mas is in 2 weeks but Santa stopped here!!!!!

Hehe he needs a calender!

 

I received a lovely teddy in a clown costume and a rabbit for my toy shop.

They are super cute!!!!

 

My first idea was to put them in the cabinet....

but later with a till on the counter.....I can not see them!

So I will arrange them....maybe I put them in the little red wagon.

 

If you are interested in felted toys, toys or x-mas miniatures please visit Natasja's shop:
