Mondodifavola is having a giveaway

 You just have to visit her blog here Mondodifavola, you'll be glad you did! 

Holiday swap from Flor and for Anthoula. Thanks Caterina!

Thank you Flor. Your swap items arrived safely and wow are they a treat! Please excuse my photos, I''ve had computer problems and have yet to reinstall some programs. The package is hand painted too.

Flor sent some special item as you will see below. I've never had something mini with my name on it so am really liking the sign. Do you see the cute little rooster and the cow? They are really adorable. Well as you can see everything is great. Mahalo again Flor!!

These are the items for Anthoula. Caterina did not get my photo so I thought to post it here. Anthoula's dollhouse looks to be elegant and traditional so perhaps she will find room for some of these items there. She also makes the most scrumptious looking food.

This was a fun swap. Mahalo to Caterina for her ingenuity and work setting it up.

First light

The last time I was at the miniatures sale a new lady there had this chandelier for sale. After having shopped the internet for fancy chandeliers I thought this one was a decent price. I am very leary about spending too much on the lighting right now as everything metal rusts here very quickly. Some more bling would do this one good though.
At one time you could get chandelier kits, does anyone know of a source?

Cynthia's giveaway arrives

Earlier this month Cynthia held a giveaway and I was the lucky winner. Everything arrived safely and she threw in an extra set of pillows!
