Farm-stand Tour

See the video here

I have some mixed feelings about finishing this project. On one hand it has been so much fun making all the produce all summer long and sharing the projects with all of you. On the other hand I have to admit I am getting tired of making produce.

I will still make some more produce items, just in smaller quantities more like what you would put in the kitchen of your dollhouse. There are still so many more produce items I want to show you all how to make. They will come later.

So is there much else to say about the produce stand? It is a huge project especially when all set up. It is on display at the local mini show this weekend and takes up a lot of table space to be sure. I just love it when it is all set up though. In reality except for being displayed (like at the show) it will probably spend most of its time as separate pieces. I decided not to permanently attach any of the parts to the board and the board will need to be store most of the time, at least until I figure out a spot to put it. I do hope to display it at the local county fair next summer and maybe at the state fair too. I'll have to see how that all works out when the time comes.

Sorry this is a short post but most of my time lately has been taken up with show prep and I just haven't had time to sit down and write this. There will be at least one bonus video this next week about the show.

Enjoy!
