  • I occasionally visit this store, located at the corner of 58th St / Glendale Ave in the heart of Historic Downtown Glendale, known for its antique shops situated inside vintage bungalows and cottages. As you enter the store, you will notice 2 partitions: on the left is all dollhouses & miniatures, on the right is pre-1970s pedal cars and tiny model cars. The elderly husband-and-wife team runs the store, and the wife carries out her duty with the dollhouses while the husband is in charge of the pedal cars. The wife usually remembers her returning customers, so sometimes she lets me know the new items in stock, especially the shadow boxes for me to check out, because that's what I usually select to house my miniatures, whenever I needed to make a new project. Sometimes I find several miniatures that I can use per shadow box. I specialize in decorating my boxes for each of my Furkids, which I start from scratch. I even met the adorable "Benji' family dog a couple times- the dog remembered me and greeted me when I came back. I enjoyed playing with him. How nice and befitting to see somebody's pet inside a dollhouse store. The scenery reminded me of growing up back east way back when. Oh, and they even have free yummy popcorn freshly popped like in a movie theatre ;) Being that it's located in a vintage neighborhood, the store started out as a general store since the front door points towards the corner of the block. You can also see the duct pipes that snake around the ceiling, with large windows and brick exterior. You can also hear the heavy blowing of the air conditioner throughout the pipes. And, it even smelled like a used bookstore (I still love books). They carry a large inventory of miniatures in various small scales from all over the world. They have their own dollhouses, room boxes, and shadow boxes on display, so you can cull some ideas or just to enjoy viewing. The prices range from affordable to pricey. And, they also carry books and magazines pertaining to dollhouses. The store has been in business for decades (not sure how many), and I am appreciative of their staying power because I prefer to examine/feel the miniatures in person before purchasing, better than online. They're the only dollhouse-with-miniatures store in metro Phoenix. Thanks for the hospitality. I look forward to visiting again!
