Adding Miniatures and Accessories to The Coffee Corner

Hello my dear friends,

Finally I found time to sit down and post. The day isn't long enough. The kids have started their summer school break and it is just fun to have them here with me. I really enjoy their company even if they tire me out. The weather is getting hotter but hasn't settled in. I wanted to welcome a new follower to my blog Welcome MelyMel. 

I also wanted to remind you about the free give away. You still have time to join in. The closing date is on 30th June and the lucky winner will be announced the next day. For more information you can click on the picture on the right hand side of my blog page.

Today I will be sharing you what I have been up to with my Coffee Corner shop. I am really enjoying this small project even if I am not working on it every single day.

So I have added most of the items that I have been making and it still seams not enough. I have made some more canisters. These are made out of ceramic but I have decorated them with the same shops logo.

 My father has hand painted for me another lovely piece for the shop. I am so happy with the scales and it fits so well in the scene.

I also wanted to introduce you to the owner of 'The Coffee Corner'. Here is our dear Manuel. He is Italian but he lives in Britain. He fitted in the shop so well. He reminds me so much of Manuel in the British comedy 'Fawlty Towers'.

And here comes the exciting part. I really enjoy adding all the little miniatures and accessories in place. It gives me great pleasure as it relaxes me. I can spend hours and I wouldn't even know that I did. So firstly I decorated the shop counter's lower part with the same wall paper border that I have designed and printed. I loved how it looked and I also added some golden cardboard paper in the inside of the display to make it look richer.  I have placed the cakes on ceramic plates which have also been decorated with the shop's logo and have placed them in the counters.

Then I added my decorated ceramics to the open dresser and added some more miniatures to it. It is not complete yet as I still have to add some more pieces in the lower part.

I have also added the canisters and tins in the wall shelves and added more pieces to the side table. I am still not happy with them as they need more details and definitely they need to be moved.

Here are some pictures of how the whole shop looks like at the moment.

Hope you have liked what I have done so far. There is still so much to do and add. So please do keep tuned as I will be updating you soon with the final few additions.

Take care and see you soon.
