This week I went to Dollhouses Trains and More hoping to find an iced tea or lemonade set to use in the summer lounge chair scene<\/a>. They didn’t have anything like that in half scale, but they did have this tropical drink. It’s a bit elaborate for lazy summer lounging, but it was too cute to pass up.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

After I got it home I noticed something funny about it. If the red things sticking out are supposed to be straws, what’s the gray wire? It looked like something used to be glued to it. I wasn’t sure if it had broken on the way home or if it was like this when I got it off the shelf.<\/p>\n

I looked online and found this picture on the Handley House website<\/a>. My drink is missing its umbrella.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

By chance I had just received an eBay package that had the items wrapped in pink tissue paper. I used a hole punch on the tissue paper to punch out a circle. I folded the circle in half in a few different directions to give it “spokes”, added a dab of glue to the top of the wire, and rested the tissue paper on top of it. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mine doesn’t have legs sticking out like the original umbrella, but it gets the point across.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Maybe the cat had a few sips and that’s why he’s rolling around in the grass…<\/p>\n
