Spring Swap

Trudy sent my a lovely spring swap! Super cute little chicks for my Buttercup dollshouse.

And also a little girl with sring flowers in a wheelbarrow and stickers (nailstickers). Danke wel Trudy!!!


I have done this little swap for Trudy. A basket with dirty clothes and washing/cleaning products and a little tray for her kitchen. For the basket I used normal jute yarn (for post parcels). Later I will post a tutorial for the kitchen tray and the basket. I sent her also little glas bottles with ornaments (for fingernails). She can use the ornaments but also the little bottles for jam jars....

Enjoy!

A German football supporter

So here is my little German football supporter......I bought it 2 years ago.
I bought also a little football player and a nurse.

Here you find the shop link:

The little girl is 5 cm.

The football player was a present for my brother Andy and the nurse for my sister Claudia (she is also a nurse). I will post the player and the nurse in the next days.

Tonight there is also the first German football match vs. Portugal...I hope we win.

Have a great weekend,
Sonja

Birthday presents

Thanks for all the lovely birthday greetings on my blog and private mails.
Here are some photos of my presents.

1.Grandma and Grandpa (who live in the Buttercup dollshouse)are so happy with their new garden bench! - the bench is so comfortable with all the pillows....

2. Original Tilda fabrics, a bottle of 3d-varnish, a brush and yes a ceramic bowl of 40 white mice (sweets - o.k. now everyone knows my age...) by Annette and Peter. Thank you!!!!

3. My new pavillion/arche for my roses in the garden!!! The name of my roses are New Dawn (the prink one) and Flammentanz (dancing fire - the red one). The roses were 4 years old on the old picture (see post of May 16th,2012).
Yesterday I bought some Black Susanna for the pavillion (so it is not so empty during the summer...). In October I can change the position of my roses......now I am looking for a bistro chair or table....or both...

Have a great day,
Sonja

Summer project 2009 - A miniature work bench

Here are some photos of my summer project 2009: a miniature work bench with a dollshouse. It was an online project by Rita Beninde. I used greyboard for the desk, tool box and the dollshouse. On the net I found a lot images for the little scene.

Have a great day.
Hug & kiss
Sonja

P.S. Now I use the old blogspot design again. I had a lot of problems with the new one....
