So I decided to put the entire set into it's own, totally separate, album - Naomi's Costume Shop
I really loved the set for Naomi's Costume Shop. It was the most elaborate setting that I'd ever created. So I took full advantage taking dozens of photos, even though I only needed a handful for the actual story.

WOW! (in capital letters). The photos are amazing. I love the bin of tiny rosettes and the bin of stick pins. The gowns are, of course, stunning. The attention to detail, throughout, is incredible.

Thank you! I suppose the reason the scenes spoke to me so much is because of the reason you give - my own background with costuming. It was a great way to combine and showcase some of most elaborate doll costumes. The scenes seemed so 'personal', and I got totally carried away taking way more photos than the story needed.

Really WOW! (in capital letters, too) Your shop and the photos are awesome. Such a great way to display your amazing gowns and costumes. The Queen of the Night still is my absolute favorite costume, but everything else is very close behind.

Thanks. Christine's costume is one of my favourites as well, but it's not exactly something someone can casually wear. So it was perfect to display it in Naomi's costume shop.

The details are amazing. I sew some and found the little spools of thread to be particularly endearing. It's all lovely.

Lovely to see The Phantom of the Opera dress making a guest appearance! It's one of my favourites that you've made!

Yes, one of the main reasons I made dressmaker dummies was so I could display that costume in Naomi's shop.

I loved the somewhere in time story all the little details were so wonderful, I'm hoping to see where the characters may go in the future, maybe a wedding?

Thank you. Baron and Naomi will be heading out on an adventure together soon.

I can picture a wedding at some point, but it would be a lot of work, since Baron is the son of the Queen of the fairies, so it would have to be suitably extravagant. Which means lots of new costumes. And it's not like I don't have anything else to do.
