Commissions & Houses For Sale

It's that time of year again when everyone is looking for something special. I always get requests in the last couple of weeks and even days before Christmas for items from my blog. Although this is great to be in demand I have to disappoint a lot of visitors because I don't have many things for sale.

I do go to work for a living and Playmobil is one of several a hobbies I do in my spare time,  which I know will come as a surprise to some people. With all the best will in the world my creations can take quite a lot of time to do and I can't make things as fast as I'm asked. Even a small creation like a decorated room set can take a week to make and that's if I have all the parts I would need. Normally I would say I need a week or two just to get the parts ordered and delivered and a week to paint and decorate it.

As you can guess to do even a small house can take at least a month to make if it's a simple job, usually two months, and some thing large normally four months. I don't keep vast amounts of Playmobil tucked away somewhere - although I wish I could :) - I just order things as I need them.

Most of my work is commissions and I'm always happy to build something on request whether it's a repeat of an older design or something totally new. But this is on a first come first served basis. If your interested in something for a certain day eg Christmas or birthdays please ask well in advance so I will have time to build your creation.

I get a lot of visitors who looking through my blog at past work ask to buy a certain item then and there, thinking that I must still own it. I'm glad to say from my point of view that every thing you see on my blog has already sold. Some items will sell from just a preview others as soon as I show the completed item even before I've decided to sell it. Anything I do have for sale is listed on my Emporium blog.

So if you are interested in buying some thing please feel free to ask but order in advance and I hope you will understand if something isn't currently available. :)

Collection Clearout

The time has come to clear out some of my ever expanding Playmobil collection. I have some large projects on the go and I really need the space. It's a hard decision to have to make but I've got to narrow down the themes I collect, I can't keep adding to it as my walls aren't made of rubber :)

So over the next few weeks I'll be sorting out some sets, putting them for sale on here and reducing the price of the items I already have on sale.

Blue Mansion's new home

Normally I only get to show off my creations on my little diorama table but my friend Manel kindly sent me several photos yesterday of the Blue Mansion in it's new home and I just wanted to share it with you all. It's not till you see it with other things like this that you realise how large these buildings can be.
I'm so glad Manel likes it and I hope he has hours of fun with it.

Thanks Manel for the photo and the kind email :)
