  2. Thank you for sharing these window display photos, I love them! The ski window is great, I get lost in all the details. I can see this being a wonderful doll diorama!

    1. I so agree. Display windows give so many possibilities for doll dioramas and photography. Now if I only had the time! LOL! Thank you so much for your comment Barbara. Melissa
