This year St.Nicholas is really fast. My St.Nicholas lives in the Nederlands and her name is Helma!!! I am so nosy.....I am not sure if I can wait so long........

Yesterday I was shopping in my local hobby shop. I bought some wooden boxes, ornaments, stars, glimmer glue and red clay (for x-mas candles).

I also received a wooden letter case and other "craft materials"......Thank you to all my "waste collectors"!!!!!
And I won a space rack on ebay for € 2,50.......I will paint it white........

matchboxes / craft storage / 14 free dollshouse magazines

I have finished some matchboxes. I will use them for my x-mas swap (sorry I can't post here any photos of my swaps....I am not interesting in getting stress with Santa Claus).

I also start to tidy up my working space (craft materials, dollshouse magazines.....)but that is a long term project).
On the net I have found a "lace" printie:

My French Mini House Part 3

I have finished my next "ufo-project". I have done a pavement (a wooden coffee stick), a stair (a match) and some flower pots (wooden beads & flower soft).
Maybe I will make a stairrail and a sign with the French text "A vendre / to sell".

I found also someone (in my plastic boxes) who is interested in the old house (o.k. it is a ruin!). It is the garcon (waiter) Mathis.

Have a great day
Sonja

Dollshouse fair in Arnhem/Holland

Last weekend I was shopping on the dollshoue fair in Arnhem/Holland.
For my Dutch Canal house I bought:
4 cups & saucer (for the photo I put only 1 on the table)
4 plates
1 holder for the coffee filter paper (I will make some small ones for the holder)
1 butter & 1 cheece container

I bought also some furniture, a lot of diy material and 2 Spanish dollshouse magazines. Now the hole in my purse is more than big.

I met also my friend Els from Holland. She made a little baby for my baby boutique. Now it is time to make a pram for the child (2 years ago I bought a workshop kit). But before I start with the pram I will do my christmas presents.

Have a great sunday
Love
Sonja
