Chalet School cubicle

 

 

I made this roombox of a Chalet School cubicle. It is 1/24 scale. I picked up the chalet at a car boot sale for next to nothing - I think it was originally a weather house. On the dressing table is a copy of Cecily Holds the Fort!

This description of a cubicle appears in A Genius at the Chalet School:

"They were curtained off by curtains of white, cornflower-besprayed cretonne...It really was very pretty, for the cretonne was reversible.... The little bed with its fat plumeau had a counterpane of the rich cornflower blue over it and at the side of the bed was a washable rug with a cornflower design. A kind of table-bureau faced the bed and in the opposite corner was a wicker chair with cushions"
