On May 6, the last ever Moncton Miniature and Doll Show is being held, and I am in the process of finishing up some things I began during the last three years of Covid. Recently, I was gifted with a genuine printer's drawer, lots of tiny niches, and it is being prepared for me to use as a display at this show. I doubt i"ll be able to fill all the niches with sales stock, but it is worth trying.
As Spring has finally sprung here, the Carpenter-in-Chief is busily pruning apple trees and getting some seedlings started for his vegetable garden, but he thinks he can figure out a way to have this stand up on my sales table. This drawer is quite heavy, understandably so since old moveable type was usually cast in lead, which means the support has to be really, really good. Lots of spaces for tiny items in this thing!
We had our mini meeting via Skype again, as Louise's husband developed Covid, and she herself wasn't feeling all that well either; however, both Marilyn and I worked away, and I potted up some small yucca plants and echeveria. The String of Pearls plant is for my flower shop, I'm keeping that one, although it won't work in the little wall planter.
