Prop frustration!

That moment when you find that perfect prop, at an almost affordable price, and realize that not only is it too big to get home, but it is too big to fit anywhere in your house!

And then my husband points out that animated light up reindeer would be great steeds! AAARGH!

LOL - I felt that way when I nearly bought a child sized Mercedes sports car for Sherris. She would have loved it, as would I, but there is no room in the apartment for vehicle luxuries :(

Pumpkin Carriage! I saw some jewelry holders shaped like that. Not sure of the exact size. I almost bought one just because I like collecting those types of things. Space is such a frustrating hindrance. >_<

That's why I have to say Re Ment is for Littles (1/6 scale) and the bigger dolls only have a couple of things. I only make an exception for art supplies or specific items that are minis of something I have.

What a shame! It's a great prop. It would be fun to make fabric skins for it, like a tea cozy, that you could use to dress up the coach any ol' way you liked. Space is an unfortunate thing. We need Tardis-like doll rooms, don't we!
