What I made for Rita and Siv - Advent Calendar 2010

Now that the Advent calendar swap I had with Rita and Siv has finished, I can show you what I made for them. Some of you has probably already seen this on Rita`s blog, but here it is...

THANK YOU SO MUCH, both of you! I have enjoyed so much opening a gift every day, this is the best Advent calendar I have ever had! :-D

200 followers!

Thank you so much to all of you who read my blog, and thank you so much for all of the nice comments you have written! I am so happy to see that so many people are interested in reading my blog! I have been very busy lately, so I haven`t had time to create a lot of minis for this, but I do want to have a small give-away to celebrate reaching 200 followers!

To enter the draw, simply leave a comment here :-D
If you link to this give-away on your blog, let me know, and you will get one more entry in the draw. The give-away is open for the rest of 2010, and I will draw the winner on Jan. 1st 2011.

The prize is:

This wall-hanging cupboard made by me....



And this mini Le Creuset pot! The lid doesn`t open, and it`s actually a fridge magnet. The size fits both 1:12 and 1:6, as the real Le Creuset pots come in many sizes.

Merry Christmas!

I want to wish you all a very Merry Chistmas! Hope you all are having a wonderful Holiday!

This is the view from my living room window this morning! White Christmas! :-D

Earlier today the boys helped preparing for the Christmas party by putting all of the gifts under the tree. And afterwards they very willingly posed for a picture.

Beautiful gifts from Eli

At our last dollhouse club meeting I got these beautiful gifts from Eli! I just love the sweater she knitted! She bought the tiny matchbox from Kristin Baybars in London, it`s only 1/4" long. Thank you so much, Eli, for these lovely minis! Everything is perfect! :-D

My dollhouse room

Here`s my very own dollhouse room in our new house! It is still a bit empty, I want something more on the walls, and better lighting. But it has plenty of space, both for my dollhouses and for creating minis. Inside the wardrobes are six of my dollhouses, protected from dust and my kids.
