I asked my doll I have since my youth I (seventies) for assistance and she found it agreat honor to be here to participate to help.
She is bigger than 1:12 but samaller than Barbie(1:6), she is the same hight as Daisy..a doll I have also...well enough about her lets  come to business.
First i wrote all your names on a paper and cut it into small strips.


 Then i folded them and put them in a bowl and shaked them real good.

 Now my doll (i don't remember her real name so lets call her Donna) has chosen one paper.
 Donna, are you sure?
Yes i am sure she told me.
 And the winner is......

Congrets Rosella your the winner.

Hang it over a chair.

You can even use it as an tabl cloth.

I made it out of 100% cotton sewing thread.

I spoiled myself today!

Today i went to a miniature fair in Rijswijk and i bought very nice things, you can say i spoiled myself.
A lot of nice goodies.
A modern step, a ladder, a metal rack,  some flowerpots and in front a cookie tin to decorate and some tray's.
Two more flowerpots, a side table, a mirrorcabinet, some toys and two plastic storage bins.
A fireplace with light in it and a little house.
A book by Angie Scarr about making miniature food wuth a dvd, a writing desk and another book with an angel on the cover to decorate the insite (a box )
A modern chair.
A drainer with dishes and the gold thing in the back is a empty pocket watch to decorate.
The little toys again, a piggy an tiny teddy.
Two bottles of wine in a winestand, two buckets an two bunnies.
A garden water-thing...i don't know how you call it and a tub, both for in the flowershop.
A whole bunch of leaves.
You see i really spoiled myself.
I did have a lovely day with lots of inspiration at the fair.
For some unknown reason they removed the playground at the hal in Rijswijk, so my son was very dissapointed at first, but there was also a stone and miniral market at the same place and he liked that a lot.
He bought some shark teeth and a couple of stones.

Thanks for all your congretulations on my 200 followers post.
I appriciate it a lot, i am so very happy to get to know so many nice people true this international medium. I am working on a give-away and its almost ready.
Have a nice weekend .

With love
