More Pictures From the Mini-Show

I took a class with Solveig Marie Gulbrandsen, on how to make a corset. Solveig Marie is such a great teacher and she is full of ideas on how to do things.

And here it is, all finished up ( thanks heaven for tacy glue :)

Some pics of the other corset there were made.

The next class I went to was making sunflowers.

I just love those little weeds we put in there whith the sunflower. Just like home LOL!!

I also bought an extra kit, and made this one when I got back home.

Time just flies in the summertime. I thougth I would do more blogging at this time of year,but that didn`t happen.

I`ve just come back from our vacation. We drove thru Sweden, Spend like two nights there before we drove of to Copenhagen. We went shopping and sightseing and of course we had to visit Tivoli.This huge carnival in the center of Copenhagen.I love Copenhagen, and I hope this was not my last visit. After three days there, we where on the road again.

Our finial destination was Løkken, where we had hire a summerhouse for a whole week. My sister and her family was there , and we had a great time there as well.

 

In Denmark I visit Miniseum.  Sorry no picture inside or  of the things I bought.  I simpley lost track of time while I was shopping and talking to Lady who owned the shop. Kids and husband was waiting for me in the car. Thank heaven for DS game LOL!!!

Miniature-friends

   Yesterday I had som Miniature-friends over for some workshop. Anne Mari,who has a great web-site. She has some beautiful dollhouses to show you.  And Janne, who just started her new blog.

So please take a few min. and pop over to the both of them and say hi.

We made some mini-can made of paper. We found the tutorial at Marlies blog.  And this is what we manage to make, between all the talking and browsing the nett for minis and just having a good time.

These two are the one I manage to make. Now I have to find a spot for them in my dollhouse. That shouldn`t be a problem.

See U soon!!
