General Discussion / Introduce Yourself

« Latest by Jdroman26 on February 16, 2024, 05:31:44 AM »

Hi Meghan,

My name is Julie. I live in the Detroit, MI area. I started collecting WFF when I was 19 years old.  I?m now 52 and except for a period of around 8 years, I have always collected the mice. I remember walking past a Hallmark store and spotting them and I was hooked.  I create miniature settings for my mice.  I generally use kits to achieve this.  My dad is an avid woodworker so I am trying to learn from him how to use the band saw, etc so that I too could create some other and more intricate displays for the mice.

A little Jack in the Box.  This is the first time I've come across a Black Friday special on ebay.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/186298900567?itmmeta=01HPQCED5BK5N18AM9Z6AH22PG&hash=item2b6047a057:g:HpcAAOSwhJ5ly~ZA&itmprp=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0MzD%2F6VmBXNS2V8gQYIjp1WWIZJmytsfHOu6283QC7cXTxn0FqUV3%2FdCC%2FU%2FaysP8P8ixuUL75gw7hCxN63Ucn1%2B5rxj08%2BhG%2FM7D93lVs7unMSkq6%2FXIEpjNC7PBFn%2FF7FNBVvHmMOpqbwYY%2F80y0j24LtOZchQmVJMInyA3XMnjCvRo%2B%2FI7H8ISXIxR3yX5Za2hL0ujLJKLvn47zwNBL0bux%2FjLeBzd%2BY1rtj8Qk1Vi52%2BnVbUFws5L1vHk7AZWFhDitFqI0YywiNs2O214Yg%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR-DSuey1Yw

Also, "Garden Get Away", a mouse gone rare I've been searching a long time for recently sold for $165.

I thought it would be nice to make a thread where we could get to know each other better.

My name is Meghan, I live in south Florida (although the rest of my family is from Wisconsin).  I discovered Wee Forest Folk when I was around 12 or 13 years old at Bill Montague's "Mouse Trap" shop in Concord, MA while visiting my brother in Lexington, MA.  I'm in my late 30's now and aside from Wee Forest Folk I enjoy gardening, reading (really enjoying the Bronte sisters and Elizabeth Gaskell right now) and just took up learning embroidery. I wish I knew carpentry. because then I could make my own shelving for wee forest folk, as well as picture frames and garden fencing.

I always like to read other collector's ideas for mice designs.  What new mice would you like to see?

I combined the two "Search by" fields into a single field. Now you can start typing in a name or number and you'll get a list of suggestions. Choose the one you're looking for, or back up and try something different. No more scrolling through the infinite playlist!

Information / Enhancement to new Marketplace: Font resizing

« Latest by Geoff on May 07, 2021, 12:43:29 AM »

The new Marketplace web page https://weeforestfolkclub.org/forsale/ now allows font resizing after drilling down to reveal details of a particular item for sale. Look for the 'AAAAA' near the top of the page to change the font size.

Information / Marketplace at the Forum is Back! Distinct from new Marketplace web page

« Latest by Geoff on May 07, 2021, 12:38:01 AM »

I've resurrected the bulletin boards collectively known as the old Marketplace as the Marketplace at the Forum. These bulletin boards are not the same as the Master List-based Marketplace web page found through the Hot Links. Instead, the bulletin boards here on the Forum fill a niche not covered by the web page, namely, a place to sell collections, groups of WFF, WFF-related paraphernalia, ephemera, etc., that can't easily be listed on the other Marketplace because there is no corresponding entry in the Master List.

I created a category for incentive pieces, Carol. Look for "INC-" in the Master List.
