Setting The Table

Lately I've been enjoying setting up little mindless vignettes and taking pictures of them. I don't know what it is, but I'm an absolute sucker for that super-shallow depth of field.

This table and chair set is actually dollhouse furniture, and I can assure you that I didn't feel weird shopping in the dollhouse section of the hobby store. I'm sure the old guy behind the counter didn't think I was nuts either.

The funny thing was that I was absolutely thrilled about all the microscopic, detailed furniture and stuff. There were tiny potted plants, silverwear, park benches, toilets and SO much more. Everything a tiny little person could ever want in their miniscule existence!

Since I couldn't buy the whole place (I would have), I proudly walked up to the counter with the table and chairs, a bag of fake grass, a miniature tea set, and some random bits of tiny wood. As I checked out, He gave me a look that said "I don't want to know what you're doing later tonight."

Maybe next time I go back to buy more dollhouse furniture (which is inevitable... I'm hooked now), I'll give myself a wispy moustache and see how that feels. That strikes me as the way I probably should look when doing that kind of shopping.
