Lego story #058: One more winter village inn

Another alternate build for 76388 Harry Potter: Hogsmeade Village Visit.

This is "The Stuffed Stocking" by Little_Thomas. Instructions are free.

Unlike my posts on the Hogsmeade Village and the Old Inn, I've got minifigures posing here (at the end).


Lower floor tavern.



In a corner behind the counter is a cute stove set-up. Close-up below:


Upper floor with two inn rooms. 


Completed build.


Like the alternate build I posted before (Old Inn), the Stuffed Stocking has beautiful snowy roofs.





 And now for a bit of fun . . .


Welcome, travelers!




I used four minifigures from the A-Frame Cabin, one from Hogsmeade Village (Dean Thomas in red parka), and one from Arctic Explorer Snowmobile (the ginger-haired lady in orange and blue).


And here's the Pilot from CMF Series 3.

Now for some fantasy characters:


They're from the Dungeons & Dragons CMF series. But the innkeeper is Fauna from Animal Crossing.

Some day I need to get around to photographing these D&D minifigs individually.



Doesn't it make you want to cozy up indoors with a hot mug?

I'm really glad I got three different builds out of the Hogsmeade Village Visit set before selling it.

I've got one last Harry Potter set to show you, and then we'll move on to a different Lego theme!
