And the winner is......? Me!!!!!



Kate from The Whittaker's Miniatures,
had this fabulous mirror for a giveaway, and I was
a lucky one to win, one of these fantastic mirrors!




And as if that was not enough, she also put a lot of other
fantastic mini's in, to play with!
Thank you Kate, I know just a perfect project to use them!




Yesterday, I went to the Arnhem show with Sylvia!
It is always fun when we are together and we have had a
fantastic day. Sylvia, always finds a way to surprise me...
she made me a fabulous teapot!




We also met Sylvia from Sylvia's Lutjeboudel
she is such a sweet woman and we have had a nice
talk! Sylvia sells wonderful kits, klik on her name and
go over to visit her site and to see it your self!

She gave us this wonderful kit to make this lantern!
Thank you Sylvia!

We also met some friends from the Dutch PoppenhuisKladblog,
so fun to see some mini friends!




At the show I have seen lots of wonderful mini's, but did
not buy much...this is something I did buy!

A wonderful kettle made by Aat Outkes Miniaturen
I'm very happy with this perfect little real piece of enamel miniature!

There was some other thing we both wanted to buy very much,
but when we went back to the purchase...they were sold out!
I can not say to much about it...Sylvia was not happy at all, because I said to her it could wait...silly me! Now we have to wait for an whole other year!

There are some packages arived also for Easter but...I have
to wait till Easter....I'm so curious!

And the winner is......?



Thank you for participating in such nummer of people for this giveaway!
Ilayda has draw the firts winner..... Carmen from miniaturas Dora!
Congratulations Carmen,can't wait to start making a nice surprise for you!
Than the second winner is..........?????????
Well that is the Question?
The day I had almost 250 followers I closely watched my blog and at that time the 250th follower and winner was Josje!
Now,it appears that every time the followers get a different position and that makes it very difficult to determine who is the 250th follower?
If someone knows a correct way to find out who is the winner,please let me know!
Until that time Josje is for me the 250th follower and winner!

How to make a Fire Basket!



Christel Jensen has found a cool tutorial made by
Amy Merric on the site Design Sponge.

Christel made her own variation,and created a
fantastic chairs by using the wire parts from
Champagne Corks.

I wanted to share an other idea with you, of what
more can be made out of these wire parts.



This is what you need. The plastic basket are small pots
of water plants for a fishbowl. Do some cutting and painting,
and ....Tádá!




One Fire Basket!

This idea I came up with when I was sitting in front of my
own real fire basket warming up on the heat!
I thought.... I want one in mini too,for my little garden I was
working on at that time.

All about a little box!





It seems that there was someone I forgot to mention on my previous post!

The little box in front of the bed in my daughters roombox,was a gift from
Edith, Grumbler & Poppet

Well not the box but a printie of the box,she sent herself to me
by email to use!!!!!! (this was for a year or two ago)
And that is exactly what I did,I made just one box and used it for
my little girls roombox! I did not sell,give or copied it to anyone else!

She says that I have used it without her permission and accuses me for steeling it from her????

If I use something and it is not mine I always refer to the one who give me the inspiration or permission....hé, do not show it other wise!!! We all get inspiration of each others work and I am honnored if someone likes my work. I am also honnored if someone takes the time to make and
sent me a gift and I'm proud to show it to you all.

I will not remove her comment she gave at my previous post,so you can make your own opinion about it....but I did removed the box!

I,m not the kind of person that likes arguing,but I could not just let go.......

I am furious!!!!!!!

NEVER EVER CALL ME A THIEF AGAIN!!!!
