My Updated Zoo Gift Shop
« on: October 11, 2011, 02:03:57 »
Since I posted pics of my gift shop in the zoo diorama, I have made some modifications and improvements. The biggest improvement is that I made the walls higher, adding windows and transoms above the shelving units and doors. I also had to change the formerly curved window display and make it square, partially because I did not have a tall curved window, and also to accommodate the other big improvement... roofing sections. And I added some artwork to the gift shop, made out of stickers and displayed in the window. Hope you all like it!

A third painting, and the bin holding additional prints for sale




The new window display area

And some close-ups of the merchandise on the shelves:









My new invention to keep dust out of the shop. I will start another topic about this. ;D
