Photos show displays in the shop, nicely laid out objects on pine shelving. This photo has an old miners bottle in a woven covering.
This photo gives an overall view of the shop with a row of tee shirts, a lamp and books. Just to give an idea of the cosy set-up.
Visited Museum of the Home yesterday. Beautiful displays about our homes & lives in Britain, past present & future. Inclusive social history. All free! Lovely garden & cafe & friendly staff. Also an excellent shop (see photos). #Museum #London #MuseumOfTheHome

A lovely little day spent at The Museum of the Home in London! What a novel concept for a museum. I loved it! #museumofthehome
