I just love your shadow boxes! I've always wanted a doll house becuase the tiny furniture is so fun. Shadow boxes makes it so much more practical. Great idea. Thanks for sharing.

Me too!! But limited space (and funds!) made it a 'no go' area!!! Looking for the bits and pieces on Ebay was fun!! Very addictive!! So much out there!!!

Absoluitely charming! I want one!!

Jackie Spencer 11-16-2012 05:04 PM

Gosh these shadow boxes are just wonderful! I can't imagine making a quilt that small for it.

katesnanna 11-16-2012 05:51 PM

Just fabulous. What a wonderful friend you are.

Lori S 11-16-2012 05:53 PM

Those are just too special!! I love them! I might have to "borrow' this idea.

Thats quite ok!! The box frames are 10"x8" and are 21/2" deep (3" would be better, but these were all I could get in UK)!! oh ---plenty of Super glue!!!!!:)

patsynel 11-17-2012 03:43 AM

These are awesome.

happyjan 11-17-2012 04:00 AM

These are so cute! Can I be your friend? :)

jeank 11-17-2012 04:07 AM

These boxes are wonderful. I have often gone into the minature store in Frankenmuth MI and admired all the tiny furniture, but knew I had no room for one of the houses. Maybe this idea could fit the bill for me.

debcavan 11-17-2012 04:33 AM

Those frames are just too darling for words. You did have a great day.

Helen S 11-17-2012 12:37 PM
