Thank you.

With the exception of the Fey and Lamey houses, almost everything was found at tag sales. The rabbit with the shovel was a quarter; the salt cellars were less than two or three dollars....The plates are from the very first set of dishes we bought as a couple--they only come out twice a year! Once for this--and again at Easter.

Of course what really makes the scene ARE THE HOUSES!
