Weather Vane


Found the perfect little weather vane for the manor. It is a Holly Hobbie Miniature die cast metal weather vane with rotating parts! It is dated 1976, Durham Industries. The brass alloy metal goes quite nicely with the dark roof shingles.

  2. The house is looking lovely! I am building a Garfield too and you have achieved a very nice finish. Well done! The weather vane is a great touch and does complement the shingles nicely. Amy

  3. The design of this miniature house is so gothic! I admire it, especially its roofing design. Hmmm, a gargoyle would look nicely on the gables. The weathervane makes it eerily beautiful.

  5. Santo… Do you like gothic stuff? I do like 'em too! I usually prefer Victorian styles to be exact. Whenever I roam around places and see houses inspired by the Victorian era, I take photos of 'em. It's my fascination these days…
