jbnmini Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I knew I saw that house before! It showed up on my CL search "items found nearby" Def has good bones. Houses like that I wish I could just snap up! Unfortunately I do NOT have the room for one more project right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1martinimomma Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Did we have a winner of the Granville this evening on eBay? Several of us were watching the auction and were wondering if someone here won it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Miniature Madness Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I was watching too! Congrats to the winner! It's a gorgeous house, so I thought about it for five seconds, then remembered I have an extremely short attention span. I need to stick to small projects until that improves!

blueirishmoon Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I wanted it, but couldn't afford it. I'll keep looking for one though, especially if you all help me! Too rich for Santa this year, so I have to start building a fund for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueirishmoon Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Congrats to you, then! I read a story this week that was so heartwarming. This person walked into a Toys R Us, did their Christmas shopping, then decided to pay for a bunch of people's layaway items, to the tune of over $10,000. Wow, I wish they could be my secret Santa! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minikelli Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Cynthia, right there with you on needing a fund for one -- for the time being my only fund is for my parents' house and a RL roof. Jeanine, I'm so happy for you and glad it went to a forum member! Can't wait to see what you may do with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thimble Hall Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Thank you, actually I don't plan on doing anything with it for a while. I do have a plan though. I am kind of heck bent on collecting the houses I like and stashing them for whenever. My mobility is slowly leaving me so I am stocking up ahead of the time when I may not be able to go out much. I have also been collecting stuff for my list , wallpapers , windows, door, floorings , lights etc so when I do manage to get to them them there is not so much waiting as I have had this year, and I have a pretty decent stash. I am still looking for a Queen Anne and a log cabin and maybe a Painted Lady or San Francisco , something tall and narrow and then I think I am done apart from furnishings. My givings account is deplete almost for this year anyway so I the others may have to wait till the New Year .The finished houses except for a few will eventually be donated on and hopefully will give me lots of pleasure and recreational therapy doing them. If I pop off before they are done the kits will more than likely be handed over to someone or many someones from the forum here unless I suddenly get a new in law that is a miniaturist!!! I think the person who went into Toys R Us got a lot out of doing that, I can see it but I can't donate that much in one go.It must be wonderful to be able to do something like that, we can but dream. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueirishmoon Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Well, if you never get to it, Jeanine, put me on the short list to take it off your hands! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Miniature Madness Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Congrats Jeannine! I find planning, shopping and buying dollhouse projects is truly a wonderful form of therapy! Even if you never get everything on the dream list done, it is a good feeling to know you've got the dream! :O) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 There was a Winston cottage?! I would have bid if I'd seen it.. but alas it was not me Jackie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thimble Hall Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Susie, I am sorry, I did look at all the automatic s and the person who seemed to be bidding against me most was a first time buyer with a feedback score of 0 and I didn't think that would be you so I carried on.. I put a maximum on but upped it just close to the end, but it went for lower than my first maximum anyway.Are you by any chance looking for a Queen Anne, if so and one comes up let me know and I won't bid.. I promise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise oddly enough Jeanine that person with zero ratings was my daughter trying to hide the purchase from me, she was in charge of buying it to give it to me for Christmas from my kids. And you outbid me on that last raise - all is fair in love and eBay right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thimble Hall Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Oh no and I thought I had it all worked out due to the zero. The maximum I was riding on was from the day before and until the last few minutes it was $350 . I upped my mazimum to $410 in the last few minutes as I was sure at that point it wasn't you, but as it turned out I would have got it anyway as it went for less than my first $350.. Being a 0 It never entered my head that would be you. Alls= is fair in love and war...not.... It feels like I have outbid family. and it was to be your Christmas pressie..I feel awful, I really do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
