A special gift from far away....

*Hello there*~*grin*

I have been more busy than normal... I was going to post my newly work available now but I decided to to this post instead!

About a month ago, I visited Lisette 's blog. She was doing a *give away* and although I never thought I would win, I entered for the fun.

Little did I know that I was going to receive such special gifts .....








You needed to see my face after a long walk through the country to where my little handmade barn shape mail box stands; When I saw this large parcel waiting for me. When I read the label and saw Lisette 's names I was surprised with the size of the package.


First I opened the card and it said....

When I opened my fist package I found with delight a little suitcase ... so well made ... it looked real.



When I opened I was surprised to find all kinds of paints , brushes and spatula... just like my own ...




Then the next box.... it was wrapped but I was anxious to open as my children were telling me to "open momma*!!!*grin*


Three little packages were lovingly wrapped inside waiting for me...







Can you imagine my face when I unwrap a easel , a little ladder , some pictures and ... guees what ..... a blank canvas waiting for me???*grin*







Lisette lives in Netherlands .... I used to *dream* with tulips .....garden is a true passion for me and I take great joy in weeding my flower beds every morning.... I could not believe when I saw 2 package of lovely bulbs that I am now anxious to go plant!!*smiles*







((( Lisette))), Thank you ever so much for such a lovely surprise. The most amazing thing is that you gave me something that means so much to me. In my wishing list , grin, is to make a atelier with few of replicas of my own paintings . These will will be kept safely and treasure forever!!!
Please take a moment and visit Lisette's blog?*smiles*

Roombox is finally finished!

After seven long months of work, I finally finished my first roombox. This room was entirely handmade and the only store bought items were the fire place ( ourtter frame/mantel) , the piece over the mantel and the ceiling trim. Everything else was carefully designed to have an unique look , making this room totally one of a kind! *grin*
I also should add that for the chandelier, I purchase a very plain piece and it was originally brass color.... I added the crystals after I leaf gold the entire piece.

The windows are missing my pictures that I will be printing soon. I found an artist in UK that does fantastic curtains and I order a set. I have lots to do here as far as adding furniture and my touch ups. I am looking forward to this stage.... it is my favorite!

I am looking for a nursery roombox, if any of you makes it ,please contact me. It will be a while before I start a long project such is this!*grin*

Little girls, Child'd bear table set, Giraffe rocker and Lamb toy

Hello dear reader and friends!*grin*

Please meet all my new minis! Each one of them was a lot of fun to create. I did not want to make a portrait animal this week so I made some animals furniture. I really enjoyed making it and will most definitely make more in the future.



This is Emy . Darling little blue eyes girl. She * thinks* she is ready for school but she is not yet.
Emy will hold few props but her favorite is a color pencil.


You probably meet Abby already ... she is so very tired .... she is trying hard to stay awake but ... it is time for bed Abby!*grin*





Little Anna is my tiny girl this week. She too loves to color.









This is a child table set . It is not tall as regular 1:12 and it is not as small as 1/4 scale. It is just right for a child's room in a 1:12 scale.

I have never sculpted a giraffe before , so this was a *treat* for me! My toys still carries on a sense of the *real* animals ... I like that way.. this giraffe looks a LOT like a real baby giraffe.
She is 4" tall. and she has wool flocking as a coat.Real beauty at person!








This is a Victorian sheep toy , aged to look like a real vintage toy. I will make more for Christmas but I am offering him starting at $.99 at ebay. I will be listing all this minis tonight so if you want to see more picture or take one home, make sure to visit me there. Just click the auction link on the left tab.Thank you for coming and yes, ((( please))) let me know what you think?*smiles*
