WyckedWood Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I was curious if anyone else had one....or had heard of these kits...I found this particular Greenleaf kit on ebay several years ago, and just decided to finally finish it as part of my spring cleaning/organizing efforts to complete UFOs. Anyways...I added a paperclay tiled roof, little mossy chimney, wallpaper and some rough paperclay for a cottage vibe. Its nice to have a place for minis that would otherwise be packed away in a box waiting for homes of their own Sure would be nice to have something like this a little larger and laser cut....hint, hint....

Roxxie2 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Oh gosh I would LOVE one of those!!!!!!!!!! Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I've seen them a few times on eBay, always thought they looked neat, but never got one. I love how you did yours, I may have to think about getting one next time I see it. And I had the same thought, sticking not-yet-used-things in it.

Roxxie2 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 When I moved I sold a lot of my houses but I kept the minis. I am looking for someplace to display some of them. I had a real small one similiar to that one but have never seen them for sale anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Minis Dollhouses Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Oh I love this! I had never heard of them or seen them before. I wish they would release something like this. Its great for displaying miniatures that you want to display but not in a dollhouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Day Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I've never seen one of these before, either. I LOVE how you did yours! Great idea for storing special minis that don't have a home yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyckedWood Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thanks everyone, glad you like it...I took a picture of the box cover I'll have to see if I can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyckedWood Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Found it, but I cropped the photo too close to see the date, apparently it was called a Keepsake House not a Shadow Box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalesq Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have something very much like it, but it's not Greenleaf. I bought it at a Beverly's or Ben Franklin's over 20 years ago and I recall it being somewhat expensive then. I was always going to cut a piece of plexiglass to fit the front because of dust on the minis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alamom Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Great job! I really like this! I could use one or maybe a few. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyckedWood Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks. I remember years and years ago there was a running list in a thread that listed every possible kit by any and all the dollhouse manufacturers, I loved that thread..I wonder if this was on that list.

Selkie Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 In Newt's gallery, there was a pictorial list of houses. Maybe that is what you were looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyckedWood Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks for the link Selkie, but it wasn't pictoral it was just a running list that everyone contributed to when they thought of a house that hadn't been listed already.

Selkie Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 More Mini's has a list on her website under her store page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caseymini Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Put me on the list for one when they come back. I like what you did with it Karin. I too, have a smaller version that I am turning into a quarter inch house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 That's a cute idea. I use old typesetting trays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Interesting find here that someone was hunting for this kit way back in 2006 !! Maybe this is a sign it could be the next Spring Fling !!! Maybe this is the "list" you were thinking of Karin - you added the Keepsake house kit to that list in 2011 at the very end of the topic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyckedWood Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 LOL...I did... I'm seriously losing my mind. Oh well...there are quite a few new kits we could add to that list now:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxxie2 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Does anyone have the latest HBS catalog? I requested one but haven't receive it yet. I want to buy the room box that has the arches in the front. I think that it would make a good adobe room scene don't you? I need a coupon!!!!! Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
