I love these!!!! I’d never have thought of it myself. I really, really like the black ones with the red glitter paint. You’re amazing, Gail!

I don’t know how I missed these before the holidays but I sure am glad I found them now. I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out stuff to use for just this purpose and you did it! Congrats and thank you! Unfortunately the only sets I have are glass but they just might work too so I’m going to give it a try. So cool!

In reply to Kathy A. How clever to use chess pieces for furniture items in a dollhouse! I love it when people think so far outside the box!!! gail

What a great idea! Rustic Christmas ornaments are beginning to grow on me–especially teamed with jute and buffalo plaid! I use some of the chess pieces for dollhouse table bases, lamps, etc. I destructed a magazine rack a while back with great spindles, had SO saw the spindles in half and and will eventually paint them to look like carrots (Lora B’s idea I think). Prob not till after Christmas at the rate I am going! The ends became placques with small wreathes on them!
