My Garden 

This is where I am often found when not working on dolls.

As you can see, we have taken the Gothic theme of the dollshouse out into the garden. The beautiful Font and window of the Folly are from Redwood Stone. The Folly conceals the wheelie bin and compost bin. The paving is from Stonemarket. The gryphon behind the rood screen is our latest acquisition. The Screen itself is made from exterior grade plywood, painted and sponged in my favourite dollshouse technique to match the colour of the real stonework. At night we have spotlights amongst the plants and mist overflowing from the font - magic! We have even had some suitable weather in which to enjoy it this year. Below is the award we were thrilled to receive in 2006 for the 'Best Secret Garden (Small Garden Category)' from Oakham in Bloom.
