1:12 Messe 2011

Hey Everyone!

Last week-end was the 1:12 Messe - miniature fair and apart from meeting a few wonderful and sweet people, I also bought faaar too much minis. I think I didn't quite grab the idea of going there as a seller and making money...

Goodies:
Glass: drinking set + funky crooked bottle by Peter Böhm; Alvar Aalto vase and other vases by Leo Reijnders; Flowers by Jan van de Doel; mini tools by Pierluigi Pirovano (wonderful quality!); wood boards and table by Roland Irle (his booth was just behind mine so I ogled a lot! the table is actually an early b-day gift from my mum :)); Xmas minis are by Dieter Dorsch and Hans-Günter Flath.

Well and here's my booth. The fair was nice although quite tiring and I did slightly better than last year. Though I didn't cover the costs of hotel, train and fair expenses. My lovely mother was with me and it was sometimes a little unnerving that people thought she was the miniaturist behind PetitPlat. I was all the time standing up and saying "I do it" XD

I'm not quite back home yet and taking 1 week of vacation at a friend's place. I'll be fully back at work next Tuesday.
