Title: Holiday at the beach
Post by: Birdie on August 16, 2011, 15:17:46

I went to the Belgian coast a few weeks ago (Oostende) and I got inspired to make a new diaroma, resembling the beach and buildings behind it.
And I could add some of my recent finds:

- On a trip to Holland I was lucky enough to find a playmobil lighthouse (4294) that I think looks smashing. I had never seen it before, probably because it belongs to the pirate theme that I don't know a lot about.

- I also bought the forest lodge (4207) - I can't resist houses!

I've made tons of pictures and couldn't really decide which ones to use, so... here's all of them  :lol:

Wow, Birdie! This is an excellent display  :clap:! You did a great job of combining the classic Victorian houses with the new harbor sets!

 :o :o :o Soooo beautiful!! I love every little inch of it!! Can I book my vacations there? If all is booked I can stay and sleep in the cave  :love:

Thank you all so much for you interest and your kind comments :)  :-[ 

I'm afraid the cave is in fact already taken by the hobo's who are currently enjoying a little campfire on the beach. But we'll accommodate you in one of our seaview rooms in the hotel, Wolf Knight.

Primus¨Pilus, I love the baby  :lol:  I actually had to babysit my 8 month year old godson a few days ago. He got hold of a couple of clickies sitting romanticly on the cliffs. It was quite the drewl-fest because he likes putting things in his mouth. But the clickies eventually swam their way to safety  :high5:

What a great diorama, I like the way you used the felt for the water and beach, with the rocks along the waterfront.  Your photo tour was delightful as well.
