bread dough for a big family to be safely left overnight to rise. Then
the bread was kneaded on the flat removable top and baked. The dry
sink shows how a kitchen could function without indoor plumbing. It
consists of a cabinet with a slightly recessed top, made to hold a basin
and pitcher for water. Sometimes the recessed area was lined with
zinc to make it waterproof. The washstand also was a functional piece
in a home without indoor plumbing. It looks adorable displayed with
a small doll with a miniature washbowl and pitcher and little pieces
of linen hung on the towel bar as miniature towels.
According to www.dutchcrafters.com, handmade dower chests
were given to young Amish women as a symbol of good luck in
preparation for marriage. Brides-to-be filled their hope chests with
items necessary for married life. These included handmade items
such as special occasion dresses, blankets, towels, and napkins. The

carried on among German immigrants in
Pennsylvania. A separate, related tradition occurs
in the Netherlands and among Scandinavian
countries and immigrants. Typical motifs are
hearts, flowers and birds embellished with
scrolls and swirls, often using one-stroke brush
techniques to create folk art designs on common
household objects. The doll furniture was all handTOP TO BOTTOM:

but the similar painting style means that different
pieces harmonize well.
These two non-working tall clocks have very different
designs but no moving parts in either one.
Historically, in Europe, many of the earliest tole
painters were actually the families of tinsmiths.
The holes at each end of the cradle allowed it to be hung
on ropes as a swing.
