MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHING CROTON

As always, some wonderful new finds, oldies but goodies and special requests. Click on the photos and links.

Yes. We admit it. We loved all that cold war charm of Rocky & Bullwinkle; to the right, a Bullwinkle lunchbox that was featured in the 2013 auction @ Serioustoyz it sold for $201.25! 

It's followed by a 1958 Christmas lighting catalog page from the Canadian "Eaton's" Department Store---lots of vintage Christmas goodness there---and finally from 1958, and also from Eaton's, Fifty Fascinating Toys for Under a Dollar! SEE ALL FIFTY AT https://www.flickr.com/photos/22283683@N07/albums/72157715132512552.  Again click on the photos and links.

NEWS FROM PAPER GLITTER GLUE! HOLIDAY MAKER FEST!  Finally, it’s here! Now I can show you my paper gingerbread house for the Holiday Maker Fest. The Holiday Maker Fest is going to be held from November 4-8th.

When I was asked to participate in JenniferMaker’s Holiday Maker Fest craft summit, I knew a Christmas house would be my project. One of my friends suggested that gingerbread paint I made last year would be perfect for this project. And she is right. So here is the Gingerbread Cardboard Cottage.

WESTWARD EXPANSION! THE LATEST INSTALLMENT FROM PAUL RACE AND FAMILY GARDEN TRAINS--This is a follow-up to our articles: "Train Storage Solutions, 2020"and "Expansion Planning, 2020."

In those articles, we worked inside to improve our storage situation and tried to figure out the best way to proceed on the proposed last expansion of our new raised railroad.

This article is a next step, which is mostly refiguring the best layout for the extension, as well as getting started on the revised version. READ AND SEE MORE AT https://familygardentrains.com/newbost/20_09_western_expansion_1/20_09_30_western_expansion1.htm
