I've been placing my purchases in their new homes.
From Alicia Volta of Aligra Dolls I bought this worried little girl who looks as if she needs a happy home!
She now sits in a comfy armchair.
Can you see the cute cushion? Oly made it for me. It's stitched on fine silk gauze.
I was unable to resist these teeny little toys from Pinar of PQF. The furry rabbits are flocked, I dread to think of the mess I once made trying to flock something! The biggest rabbit is only 7/8" tall!
My Christmas house has been sadly lacking a finished bathroom. At last I've found some tiles! I don't know yet whether they will go on the floor or the walls-maybe both! These are from Sophia Miniatures .
This is the 'before' photo of Santa's bathroom. Just a shelf and one wall covered in some awful blue and silver Christmas wrapping paper. (It seemed a good idea 15 years ago!)
I showed you one of Oly's cushions - here is another she made me, this to commemorate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
And in the Jubilee spirit I bought this wonderful glass work from http://www.glasscraftuk.com it's fabulous! I have several pieces of his amazing work.
My other purchases are destined for my Spanish Villa. What Spanish Villa you may well ask. I'm going to finally build my Delprado House and turn it into a Spanish Villa........ one day when I get time!
This last photo is to prove I do eventually finish a project! I made this little doll many years ago, my first and only Fimo doll. She has waited for eyes for years! Finally, two dots with a permanent marker she is finished!
I live in a muddle of unfinished projects, both miniature and full size am I alone?
Have a good week,
cuantas minis bonitas!

ReplyDeleteVaya paseo por la feria¡ además decomprar un montón de minis preciosas supongo que lo pasaste de maravilla. Preciosos los cojines de Oly
ReplyDeleteNoooo Gill, you are not alone :O) I love your purchases (I find it really funny that you have so many mini-girls while there are only boys in full-size!) And your handmade doll is so cute, it was really time to give her some eyes! And I am proud that there is something made by me between all these beauties! Hugs, Sandra
ReplyDeleteThe treasures made by you are always in the front of my displays:) I love my boys very much but it seems only my dolls are to be girls!
DeleteEnhorabuena por todas esas maravillosas miniaturas que has comprado en la feria.
ReplyDeleteSeguro que lo pasaste genial.

ReplyDeleteHello Paky, yes, I thought there might be some 'blog friends' at the show. We will have to wear badges next year!
DeleteBeautiful purchases! I love the doll by Alicia, I love her dolls. The fabric of the armchair she is sitting in is great.
