Thanks!
Yes, before, it was a dinky 2-story structure. There is an interesting
story about the start of the cutie store.
I didn't used to like Belville, but my fiancee (NLF unfortunately) insisted
on getting some because she thought it would make a cute decoration for our
upcoming wedding.
I agreed figuring I could sneakily make SOME use out of those extra strange
belville parts.
I used the baseplate in my fire station

store got most of the other, extra parts. That's when I fell in love with
Belville parts. Unfortunately, the original top of the cutie store used old
castle pieces and it looked pudgy and unrealistic.
Luckily, set 5824 was only $9 and comes with a spire, arches and a bunch of
other cool pieces. I got two of them.
I was able to comine these parts with some other stuff I had laying around
to create the soaring facade of the Cutie store today.
I just looked in the LUGNET section on the Belville sets and I noticed that
they have some blue-clear spires. HMMM - I think those would be cool if I
could figure out where to integrate them!
Have you posted any Belville creations?
I'd like to see them, if so.

| (...) I have never used any Belville elements before, but I just got my first Belville sets, the 5824 and 5823. The triple arches and the white double pillars with the cutout heart arch will be fun to use. I wish they made bricks in the paler yellow (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.belville)
