The beautiful Bespaq vanity and heart-shaped chair came from Small World Miniatures (now Regent Miniatures), one of my favorite eBay sellers. I think the pieces look wonderful against the wallpaper. The hand painted details are incredible.

I chose vintage inspired accessories for the vanity. The vanity tray I made fits perfectly on one side with the C. Rohal peacock box and Art of Mini lamp on the other. Not much room for anything else besides a small book. At first I thought the lamp might be too big for the vanity, but I rather like it. It has a warm glow and the perfect vintage feel.

The tray is a jewelry finding that had been completely flat. I used pliers to bend the handles up. The tall black bottle with the silver stopper is a turning from CW Lubin, but the others I made. The blue crystal bottle has a silver crimp bead and a fancy head pin to make the topper. The round black bottle has an earring stud for a base and a brad as a lid. The clear bottle has a silver crimp bead and a flat head pin for the topper. All are attached to the tray with mini hold wax.

The Italian leather shoes are from Patrizia Santi. The pale pink Chanel replica handbag and wallet are from Dollhouse Ara. They are so well made and have a nice weight to them. I chose this set for the Heritage since they are a nice classic style that shouldn't interfere with the era of the house. Grandma has good taste!
