    So completely cute. Love that it’s handpainted, love the way the paint has aged, and love that car! That was the only shape the car I wanted to drive one I was a kid (and young adult and adult!).

    So great that your son still displays it in his office.

    Is the bench as tiny as it looks?

    What else did your mom make besides benches and quillows? https://www.alleewillis.com/awmok/kitschenette/2009/12/09/quillow/
    and

    The bench seat is about 18 X 6, and the legs aren’t longer than a foot. I can’t remember if he was 3 or 5 when she made it, but definitely for a little guy.

    This is really amazing. I’ve always loved over sized mice driving teeny, tiny cars!

    Very cool. I love Mickey. In fact, when I took one of those FaceBook tests to determine which Disney character I was, I was Mickey. Would have been embarrassing had I been Cinderella.
