Recent Gifts From Blog Friends

We're coming into Easter season, that time that is oh-so-close to my birthday, and I've received so many wonderful gifts from blog friends already. I'm so touched by everyone's thoughtfulness. Additionally, I recently won three giveaways, so it's like an extra-extra wonderful birthday season! Today I'll show you some of what has arrived. I'm so far behind that this may take me several posts. :-)

Notice Plushpussycat's new sweet doll from Lucille? She loves it!

First up: Lucille, a miniaturist, blog reader and prolific commenter who is familiar to many of us. She is Plushpussycat's (the plush critter that is also my avatar) biggest fan. Lucille's comments really make my day. She sent some gorgeous gifts, including two especially for Plushpussycat: a darling pink doll, and a mouth-watering hamburger plate.

Plushpussycat drooled over this amazing mini hamburger and fries!

Thank you so much, Lucille! Plushpussycat and I both adore the gifts you sent us, and Plushpussycat says you're her favorite too. ;-)

Clear back in February I received a wonderful packet of precious gifts from Petra of peetjes dollhouses blog. Just look at the sweet things she sent:


Petra made everything but the girl doll with the hat and the card, from her hospital bed no less! I keep the needle felted snowman at my computer, where it reminds me of Petra. Look at the darling shabby chic bra and panties set Petra made for Flossy too:


Thank you so much, Petra. Your gifts are so sweet and thoughtful. May you always have fun making miniatures with your children, my friend.

Finally (for this post, anyway!), I received over 1 lb. (500 grams) of tiny scale fabrics and laces from Klara Meijer of Klara's Blog and Klara's Handwerk blog. Out of the goodness of her heart, she sent me all of this:


Klara is special to me, partly because hers was the first blog giveaway I won, two years ago. She got me hooked on blogging, that's what she did!!! ;-) Thank you so much, Klara. I'll treasure, use and share this fabric, always with you in my heart.

Next post, more gifts and giveaway prizes from dear blog friends. Until then, keep having fun! xoxo Jennifer

  2. Hi Jennifer! So happy you liked my gifts. I am thrilled that my darling little Plushpussycat with the sweetest little critter face that I love so very, very much liked her gifts. Tell her that I'm just thrilled that I'm her favourite. I'm sending her a gentle virtual hug and sweet kisses.

    What beautiful gifts Petra sent you. I must say I especially favour the sweet little baby doll with the pacifier in its mouth.

    I just want to add that there is so much you can do with the Michaels' hutch, but you probably know that. Ok, well, take care!

  3. Hi Jennifer! Lucky you! :D What wonderful gifts, that bra and panties set is toooo much. ;) Love it!!! Those tomatoes look so awesomely real (I have "tomato envy" - ha ha - I'm still trying to recreate realistic tomatoes in mini - one day, I'll finally get it. :D Congrats on your gifts and have a happy, happy birthday! xo

    Many mini hugs,
    Jackie

  30. Jennifer, I forgot to add that I did not put those flowers in the vase. Cannot take credit for that, my friend. It was just the vase I gave you. Those are your flowers.

  33. Congrats - these are the most lovliest gifts from three darling ladies, they really spoiled you. But you really deserve being spoiled... being one of the most generous ladies yourself. It was so good to see Plushpussycat again... (although it was even better seeing Raccoon again lately *wink*) but I must admit I wouldn't keep that snowman next to my computer. No way... I mean, he's cute and so well done and comes from a friend... but c'mon - he's a SNOWman! I really can't stand that white stuff anymore... *sigh* ;O)

    Hugs
