Are you obsessed with dollhouse things? Who buys a miniature radish at a dollhouse show? 👋
Then you should have been at Espace Champeret today for the 1-day only Salon International de la Maison Poupee.
Bear was insistent we go. After all there were 100 dealers from all over the world present. Including PBer Marie-Paule who made these exquisite woven straw bits and pieces.
Isn't it fun pretending Summer has arrived? Miam miam
So many miniature-smitten, obsessed visitors.
One obsessed visitor couldn't take her eyes off this jam jar cupboard.
Look! French cheese-making was going on onsite.
Brit craftswoman, Angie Scarr gives classes in Andalucia (where Summer has arrived by the way, a very good reason to go).
A perfect miniature of a patisserie tradionnelle with glass paintings.
Many amazingly detailed miniatures I've never seen before.
Teeny, tiny hand-cut silhouette pictures to hang behind your spinet while you pound out Mozart.
I fell head over heels for these little puppet theatres.
They look just like this real one in the Butte Chaumont park.
These were brought to the Salon by Argentinian Reina Mab.
Bear fell head over paws for these handsome mini bear musicians.
You could so easily break the bank at the miniature salon. At least no calorie counting.
Wouldn't it be nice to pack up all your things in mini Vuitton trunks?
