Not quite done but here is a peek at my display for Wee Forest Folk 'Folktoberfest'. The theme centers around gangsters-The Purple Gang in particular since they once hid out at the hotel where the event is taking place (the Doherty in Clare, MI). The special WFF for the event are based on the pieces that I put inside these toy safes. I will post a picture when I return home of the display with the light on-I still have to wire that. But I am pleased with my efforts. I was advised not to glue the room boxes in the safes since they are antique...so I was careful but I don't think these will ever go back to being a working toy safe ever again. I already had an offer to sell one sight unseen (what a compliment!) but I think I will hang on to this fun display. I have parted with too many of my special displays....
Your purple gang displays turned out so well. Mom had told me about the metal safes. Very cool. Sorry your craft fair wasn't worth the drive. Frankie is quite handsome though.
