Recent Acquisitions

I have not had much time for miniature projects this summer.  We are getting our house ready to put on the market.  So I have been busy with repairs, painting and de-cluttering.  Any advice on how to pack up a room full of miniatures would be greatly appreciated. 

These are some recent purchases from my lunch time estate and garage sales.


I was fortunate enough to find a 1" scale Strombecker side table and carpet sweeper.
I have another table like this one, but not in as good condition as this one.



I came across this small box marked "Made in Germany" at an estate sale yesterday.
It has most of the pieces to make a miniature sleigh.  I am not sure of the date, but it looks pretty old.  Any help would be appreciated.


I found this small country style table at a local antique mall.  I will probably find a home in my cabin.  I will make some small checkers for it.


This small lead house is probably part of some railroad set, but I thought it would make a great dollhouse in one of mine.
