A CENTURY OF CHANGING DECORATIVE STYLES
I have eleven 1/12th scale room boxes which are decorated and furnished to illustrate the ever changing style of interior decoration and furnishings during the last century.
I am happy to take these to club meetings to illustrate a talk that I give on how life styles as well as the rooms that we live our lives in change with each generation.
Each room box covers approximately a decade and they move in style from the fussy over furnished style loved by the late Victorians through the years of depression and war to the antiques craze of the latter part of the century and the minimalist style that the dawn of the 21st Century has brought.
I encourage my audience to take an active part by adding their own reminiscences of furnishings and life styles, very carefully controlled of course!!
The talk takes a little under an hour but can be condensed or stretched to suit the time available.
Some extra time needs to be allowed after the talk for a close look at the rooms.
My fee is £40.00
Plus my travelling expenses of 12p per mile, while petrol prices remain under £1.00 per litre (to be reviewed if fuel prices rise again!)
=======================================================================
If you are a dolls house group and would like me to bring my kits for 1/12th and 1/24th leather luggage and accessories and pieces of leather for your members to purchase 10% of any sales will be offset against my fee.
