A Peddlers Cart

Some time ago I made a peddlers cart for a friend. This peddlers cart was empty, so she could fill it up with whatever she liked.
A few weeks ago I made the same cart again, not for a gift but for me. I like that cart and had an idea for it. It also gave me the opportunity to work in 1:12 scale again.



Every item you see on the photo, was once found and since then kept in boxes. Several things I found while walking outdoors, for example: the wands (tiny pieces of branches), some 'herbs' (parts of flowers), the spider web (preserved with hairspray) and a real spider (dead of course) and the dragon egg (a damaged egg I found in a abandoned nest of a blackbird). Some items are made from polymer clay. The scale is made from scrap as well as the weights.
