I wrapped up reshelving all those minis yesterday afternoon.
Just in time for Pony Pal Mila, Ian, and Lukas to come for Sunday dinner. They are really good about asking first if they can see pieces, but I still feel better getting the minis all put away in the curio so that there are no temptations.
I had thought that I would put the Stablemates away, but I decided to keep them out for display.
In the end, the only breakage was this hand brushed black pinto Indian Pony.
Fortunately I was able to repair him!
That leg break was so clean that it repaired nicely with just a tiny dab of glue. Now it is very difficult to see that the leg had been broken. I'm so glad because I didn't want to just throw it away, but a professional repair would have been too costly. So I gave it a try and am pleased with the results.
Now I need to put away the tubs and mountain of bubble wrap and quilt batting that I used to pack and move the minis. There's always something to do when you are a collector, but I don't mind. I love to putter with the ponies!
