Thanks guys. I am soooooo excited, one of the main reasons we are moving is to have more space. My smurfs used to all be out in our dinning room until they took over so the thought of having them out again and this time being able to give them a whole room is going to be great.
I intend to display the majority of the collection as variations in glass display cabinets (Ikea looks good). I would really like to have one specially made cabinet to show 1 of every normal smurf in order, actually I would like to have 2 of these to show an alternative collection of variations but I still only have one version of a few smurfs so that may have to wait..........
I also intend to try and make a display of some kind, I have some fab ideas and a friend of mine has been roped in to help, after seeing the huge Schleich display poster (cliff and tree stump) he believes we *might* be able to do something similar.
There will be plenty of work top space for painting, taking pics and a computer and because the house is a big old traditional build it has really high ceilings so I am hoping I might have room on the walls for some of the different shelf displays I have eg. mushrooms, trains etc. I will of course have to find a nice corner for Papa as well.
Not that I have spent much time planning this..........
I do have to admit at this point I have already drawn the plan for the room on paper, have chosen which cabinets to get and even know what colour paint is going on the walls. I have managed to talk hubby into agreeing that the smurf room is going to be the first room to be done (there is a LOT of work throughout the house) and I will try and pics of the project as we go..........
Okay, I am going to stop now as I think I am probably showing how close to insanity I really am..............
