This blows my mind

Look at this life sized light fixture!

This, below is from my dollhouse!



A 1/10 scale from my German puppenstube.

This is a real sized plant stand.



                    This plant stand (full size) is amazing too.

THERE ARE  NO PHOTO CREDITS Of THE REGULAR SIZE ITEMS BECAUSE THE ARE FROM OLD EBAY ADS. IF THEY ARE YOURS, LEAVE A COMMENT AND I WILL CREDIT YOU.




This photo is from http://www.puppenhausmuseum.de/ to show the dollhouse plant stand. Miniature scale. This site is one of my all time favorites. If you haven't been there you must go. I can spend hours pouring over the incredible designs.

But the thing is, though familiar with DDR, Vero, and Crailshimer dollhouse designs I had never seen the real thing until these mid- century light and plantstands were on ebay. Too Much! CM

The tree arrives in the Puppenstube

(Is it Puppenstube or Puppenstuben or Puppenhaus to refer to the doll house?) The family gathers around the Christmas tree mother set up in the living room.
Mother is happy with her work.

Grandpa tells the children Santa will be coming.
Grandma takes the children into the kitchen to bake cookies.
 Brother jumps up when he smell the cookies! Granpa and Father laugh. The children are so impatient.
The little sister wants to put the next batch of Christmas tree cookies in the oven to bake and Grandma and Mother laugh and tell her she is not old enough yet. They reassure her she is old enough to taste them when they are cool.

Midcentury German dollhouse, Caco and Ari dolls. I love these children, they capture the feel of a toddler. DDR furniture.
My daughter tells me every morning my little assistant races out of bed to the livingroom to see if the tree is up yet. My daughter hopes to get hers up this weekend. Meanwhile we have the little trees going up.
Update: Thank you Rebecca for the clear explanation. See comments below. C
