Who doesn’t remember being a child, staring into the window of a toy store, dreaming of owning that special toy? It is a magical feeling that I hoped to capture while designing this room box. The definition of a toy is, ‘an object for a child to play with, typically a model or miniature replica of something’. Being a miniaturist, no wonder toys hold such an appeal to me.
This project is entitled, Once Upon A Time, and incorporates toys from my own childhood, as well as those from my children’s and my grandson’s.
