VINTAGE TOY GARAGE

As I'll be at this year's amazing BEAULIEU SPRING AUTOJUMBLE, I've been sorting out some motor-related pieces from the ArtPix Storeroom.

And look what I have here ...
An unusual and unique garage!




It probably dates to the 1960s, and is all handmade and decorated with loads of vintage motor paraphernalia logos.
It has also been covered with brick, stone and tile effect papers that are usually found on doll's houses and other models of buildings.








It would make a great way to display a collection of toy cars, including the classic Matchbox and Corgi. 
Or even an interesting backdrop to recreating a garage or motor racing scene.


If this has fired your imagination, then tootle on down to the Retro Village marquee at the Beaulieu Spring Autojumble on 16th/17th May, and find it on display at my stall!!
