Living Room Bureau

Distracting myself before a difficult Social Services meeting tomorrow I decided to put together the Bureau in the living room of Beds, Knobs & Broomsticks.
The radio is an exact copy of a
PYE MM 1931 & is signed DW 1992 UK. The paintbox with a kingfisher on is in memory of Coz/Kevin & was also created by a miniaturist. The apple pot was carved by Brian Taylor of Grandads Miniatures. The Orkney chair with drawer is (unknown) artisan made & in the drawer traditionally was a bible... & a bottle of whisky :-D
Both cats are Falcon Miniatures & the bits in the cubby holes are made by me including the glasses & their case.

Ghostly Harpist plays Christmas Carols

On the other side of the living room as we peek through the window again, you can see the ghost playing the harp for the witch who is relaxing on the sofa with the cat and a cuppa on her lap :-)
Behind the ghost is a Siamese cat lying on the top of the grandfather clock idly watching the performance.
The atmosphere in the room is wonderful, the Christmas tree lit up, the cats purring, grandfather clock ticking, the fire low in the hearth occasionally popping and the magical enthralling beauty of the harp as the ghost plays carols...

Christmas comes to Beds, Knobs and Broomsticks.

In the living room as we peek through the window, the witch sits relaxing on the sofa, feet up with a cuppa and a cat on her lap. Before her is the Christmas tree she put up earlier, it's knackering this Christmas decorating malarkey no wonder she's got her feet up ;-)
