Hello mini folk of the globe! I hope wherever you are that you are not frozen, like we have been here in the US. Now when I say frozen I mean yesterday in NY they had a winter warning advisory stating a -15 below zero wind.
So you figure exposed skin in this weather can get frostbite in 15 minuets...in NY not Antarctica! Keep warm, snuggly, inside and mini crafting!

I wanted to show you the swap Fabiola and I set up around Christmas. Fabiola is a wonderful lady who always leaves encouraging messages and kindness on our blogs, I am sure most of us know her and for those who are just finding out you are in for a treat!
Fabiola sent me a amazing array of beautiful and wonderfully crafted goodies as you can see. These signs for a tea and cake shop are just beautiful and are inspiring me to create another café style shadow box.
As you can see this love towel..aww! and wonderful clock would fit in with the scene as well!
Faby also made these fabulous little slippers, a set for him and her.. they are sooo fine and perfect. As I look at my real life ratty slippers *lol*
Fabiola has not gotten mine yet but when she does I hope they are as wonderful as these fine gifts I received! Thank you so much Faby! Your friendship and encouragement are always a wonderful gift and these little wonders you sent just add to how fabulous you are! Big hugs!!

Fabiola's work is indeed wonderful and you are very lucky to have received some of her lovely miniatures. I am sure Fabiola will be equally pleased with what you have sent her. Swaps are wonderful, especially within the sharing and caring minis community we find ourselves in where it is so lovely to share our interest with others.
ReplyDeleteI love those little slippers! Fabiola is indeed so talented! Love those chocolates you posted!
ReplyDeleteTodos los regalos son preciosos, Y llevas razón en eso de que Faby es una mujer maravillosa que siempre deja mensajes de apoyo.
ReplyDeleteOh it's so lovely gifts you received from Fabiola and delicious cakes. Take care of yourself and family in that cold. We have almost spring in Denmark. The weather is fully converted.
