Christmas is in July at King William Miniatures & Collectibles! Up above in the picture is one of our displays which we have planned. Unlike the typical miniature & Dollhouse shop, we also are expanding into items that compliment your home, and your collection of dolls or dollhouses,such as these wonderful porcelaine doll, Santa and Victorian era inspired angel ornaments as well. Shown here is our Christmas in July display at the front of the store to show how you can showcase your collection in a lovely vignette using small trees and some of our foldable stackable tables- an affordable option when decorating your home or doll or display room!
The picture above is done using two small faux trees with white lights. I have used a wood display unit, covered with a simple cream damask tablecloth in the largest size I could find, which will drape over the unit and the small folding tables I sell. On it are the large doll in an antique dress, one of the Melissa & Doug plushies in white, baskets of ornaments, a Cupid/angel candleholder (also for sale in our shop) and the trees lit. The colors I have used in cream, white, pastel pink and blue, gold and silver compliment summer and this display could stay up in your doll /display room area all year round, showcasing antiques/reproduction ornaments or dolls all year round. Some of our ornaments are listed in our Ebay store Pumpkin Hill Studios http://tinyurl.com/yjvz65 for sale.

New Resources on our Blog!
I have added a new resource to our blog, http://www.kingwilliamminiatures.blogspot.com/ . The new resource is the most current Bespaq catalog of not only 1:12 scale furniture items, but also the discontinued line catalog of the large scale Bespaq, available only through King William Miniatures & Collectibles. I encourage you to follow our blog, and to make use of this Free resource we have provided, as a Premiere dealer of Bespaq International. We strive to give our customers the best, not only in quality dolls, miniatures, and dollhouses, but also in the shopping experience, whether you are purchasing in our retail shop location or online, with affordable and quick shipping.
