Dept 56 Displays - Dickens, New England

Do You Want to Make Beautiful and Memorable Dept 56 Displays?

If you love displaying your Dept 56 houses but are having trouble making new displays, or perhaps you simply are "display challenged" and can't come up with any new or original ideas, then you need to visit the following sites.

Elizabeth Dinger has written two guides to displaying your collectible Dept 56 houses.

One is focused on the specifics of making your displays. It includes ideas and tips on everything from setting up to tearing down. Everything she could possibly think of went into this guide. Even though most of her houses are Dickens (and New England) the ideas discussed can be applied to any of the Dept 56 series of houses.

The second site is called "Displays By Number". It offers a guide containing 20 different detailed Dept 56 display set ups. It tells you exactly "where to place what" in each of the displays. The displays vary from table top to full 4 foot by 8 foot displays.

Simply put everything you need to know to make beautiful and memorable displays can be found in these two guides.

Please visit each site and sign up to get free tips and display ideas which will give you an idea of what you get in each guide.
