Nook ‘n’ Cranny’s
An expedition through the yard and the various outbuildings here is like a journey to the heart of your grandparents’ attic. You’d better take Grandma while you’re at it, so she can explain just what it is you’re looking at. Like that crib-type thing in the corner — oh, a trundle bed. Go figure. And this dagger-lookin’ thing? You used to pin your hat to your hair with these? Huh. There’s plenty you will recognize, too, even if it’s through the fog of memory — Flexible Flyers, a rocking horse with springs, ancient cash registers, druggists’ scales. And if you’re in the market for a printer’s tray or a bird cage, you’ll find some beauties. Here’s a stroll down Memory Lane where you can load the memories into the car and take them home — can’t beat that. 879 Steinfeldt Parkway

Again, we had no good writeups and the guidebooks were kind of a loss on details as well, but some of the decorative details were made out of ceramic, I do remember that. So I took a closer shot of this little roof here so you can see some of the delicate flower decorations here.
