Tailor-made in wood

Article Abstract:

Andrew Stanley Woodworking in London, England, is able to supply wooden furniture to meet almost any requirements. It works directly for retail customers, and is able to offer competitive prices by avoiding selling through a shop. It takes around eight weeks from agreeing a plan to completing the commission, according to the materials and labour. The finished items produced by the company cover many different styles. Cabinet-making represents a key element of its business, but it also undertakes more routine tasks such as making doors and window frames.

The Lilliputian jungle

Article Abstract:

Many adults in the UK have now developed an interest in doll's house collecting. There are many doll's house fairs across the country, and there are now more than 100 specialist shops, along with four specialist magazines. Doll's house design has become very sophisticated, as have the accessories. It is possible to purchase a doll's house in kit form relatively inexpensively, but the most advanced models can cost as much as 5,500 pounds sterling.
