I’ve discovered a more effective method to search eBay for rare Irish-made items. And I have found rare vintage squeaky toys for both the Irish and British sides, which were made in the 50s.
I have eliminated items in which I lack confidence. For example, I realised an Irish guard figure was installed on the Irish side because of my misunderstanding for a long time (nobody has corrected me!), even though it was a part of a British military figure. I replaced some military and soldiers into both Wade Irish figures and Novelty British Blighters by Dennis Fairweather, which represent regular people on both the Irish and British sides.
After I got a donation of a Derry Girls rubber duck, I installed it on the Irish side, as the story is about Irish girls in Catholic school in Northern Ireland, and on the counterpart of the British side, I installed a Titanic rubber duck, referencing the Titanic, which was built in Belfast.
I acquired a British Royal Doulton girl figure, which is a better balance for the counterpart of the Irish dancer girl figure.
I acquired a British Coalport Cottage Pastille Burner to serve as the counterpart to the Irish Cottage Turf Burner.
I also got a regular-shaped British vase instead of a shoe-shaped vase. I strive to enhance the visual balance of my caravan’s installation, which makes it appear more sophisticated.
I replaced the broken clock in the caravan with a functional Elddis clock.
