To all of my readers and followers.

Merry Christmas

This is not a real shadowbox but i made this with Polyvore, a real cool site.

My new addiction, you can make there all kind off images by using foto's.

You can create interiors or magazine covers etc.

Some people create real works of art there.

If you don't know it jet please take a look, but look out before you know it your addicted too!

Don't say i didn't warn you.

Decorating the Christmas tree

This scene i made a couple of years ago, although the pictures are a little bit bad, i still want to show you.

I love the two dolls: grandpa and grandma, my mum made for me.

They look like my mum and dad.

Teddybear

Yesterday i bought at our local flea market this lovely teddybear, he is to big for the dollshouse but i still wanted to show him.

 

 Isn't he cute?

I love his inperfections.

I think he is old,but i am not sure.

 Here you can see his size, he is a little bit smaller than a normal size balpoint.

He is now sitting with his friend at the bookshelf.

The other bears are hand-made.(not by me)

Bedspread,kuddly toys and modern chair.

Last week i went to a dollshouse fair in Rijswijk and i bought this modern design chair.

Perfect for one of the boys rooms, i want to make a corner desk to compleet the room.

I also bought a lot of stuffed animals, these two cuties.

And a couple more.

Yes and look my bedspread is finnished.

If you look good you see that one of the drawers in the bed is open, i want to fill this with a lot of toys.

I wish you all a nice weekend.

Laminated

I laminated the floor in one of the hallways

and in the boysroom

and in the other boysroom

in the girlsroom

all with this same laminate, it is the stuff you normally iron on the side of a planchet.

I only cut it in 1:12 size strips and ironed it on the mini floors.

The color is called in Dutch: Beuken

I think i did a good job.

It is looking like a modern floor to me, what do you think of it?

Crocheted mini blanket almost finished...

Yes i almost finished my miniature blanket for the boysroom in the big dollshouse.

I still have to make the border around it to make it more nice.

Here is were i crocheted a lot....in the train.

Especially when it's raining,

and i am traveling alone.

Shabby Chic house.

I like to surf on the internet.

This morning there happened something weird .

I found a new blog about a very tiny romantic real life home: My Shabby Streamside Studio.

So i thought, well that is a good idea for a little dollshouse, maybe my next project.

But when surfing a bit more into lovely other blogs i found that some one already came up whith this idea before: Shop Cinderella Moments .

Take a look at both.

It's so beatifull, especially if you like white and the shabbychic style.

They both have a wonderfull blog.

Mystery man

Who is this man?

What is in the box?

He is leaving the flowershop.

He is not working there, his clothes are more like a bussiness man.

My mother made me this man.

I am so happy with him!

I don't know his role jet.

For now i gave him a box and a sunflower in his hands, but that can be changed.

He is not the father of the house.

Do you have any sugestions?

I am so spoiled

Yes!!

Today is finally the day that i am alowed to open my Holliday Swap gift from Monika.

Mmm what should be in it, i am so exited.

Let me show you the nice words she wrote .

Unwrapping...

Is it tunafishsalat lite?

No, look what was insite it....

A lot of wonderfull miniatures,

everything you need on a long walking trip.

A backpack, walking shoes, walking stick, a book of Saalburg, baquet, fruit on a plate, dessert, a napkin, a paper bag and a flower.

So very beautifull and handmade.

A close up from the backpack(or is it bagpack) and walking shoes.

So you can see the pattern in the leather she used.

Very beautifull front and....

a verybeutifull back too.

Look at this shoe

looks like i can walk all day in them.

The book of Saalburg has a lot of nice real pages in them.

You see what i mean?

There is also a mouthwatering baquet with egs and salat,

a sweet desert/cake and

fruit for the vitamines on a lovey green plate,with a green napkin.

Danke danke danke

Thank you very much sweet Monika.

Holliday Swap

Here is my swap gift for Karin.

but.....

The unwrapping of the Holliday Swap's hosted by Caterina is pursponed till friday 16th,

so we all have to be a little more patience...

And my gift will arive in Canada still in time now.(i hope)

It was the first time for me to swap and i love it, even when it gave me a little stress to made everything in a time limit.

I feel so blessed with these group of lovely friends here in blogland.

Thank you all.

My miniatures in books and magazines

Suzanne from Miniature Dreams had a wonderfull idea of making photo's of miniatures.

So i went playing around and taking photo's.(with her permission :))
