DOLLS HOUSES for sale:
Now that I have moved, I am no longer able to store dolls houses. However I still have a few, so will try to get the gallery sorted in the next week or so. I am also thinking of putting on it one or two fragile items that are hard to display at Miniatura: a set of Avon blue and white china, for example.
I am still selling many lovely things at Miniatura twice a year and I will continue with this while the donations are still arriving! I have a brilliant team of friends who come a few times a year to price and sort things with me, and it has now become fun, rather than worrying!
I will combine the results for the three years between our sale in 2019 and Miniatura this year, as Covid threw everything out of balance. In that time we raised £39, 961. This included two Miniaturas and money raised from the sale of some antiques that were too fragile to transport.
At the Spring Miniatura this year, we made £8452, surprising us all! This is partly due to our being given a terrific space, consisting of a square of tables. It allows us to spread out more and we now also have a £1 box which has proved hugely popular. Please come and visit us on September 30th and October 1st. The new venue is excellent as there is lots of parking nearby and a spacious hall for us all. Food and drink available too. Stoneleigh NAEC: near Coventry
