MY FAVORITE THINGS....

I just loved this lamp the first time I saw it....I had to have it!!! You know what I mean?!?It is porcelaine and the colors are much prettier in person.. I collect miniature tea sevices.... Are these sweet or what!!! I forgot t photograph the little white set, and look at the wee tiny silverplated one...Isn't it the tiniest?!?! My Mom collected lilly of the valley china cups and saucers, this was the miniature one... What a little treasure.
Thought you might like to see them.

Hi Maggie...Your miniature tea sets are beautiful! What a wonderful collection you have.

Your needle felting postcards are GORGEOUS!!! Wish I could have been one of the lucky gals in your class. I have all the tools and would love to sit down and practice again. I just adore your landscapes! I need to buy some more natural colored roving, as I only have white and blue. Hmmmm...on the shopping list! ~wink~

Your *Matriarch* beaded family tree is beautiful!!! I'm glad you are keeping this treasure to cherish...a treasure it is! You are so multi-talented Maggie!!!

I also want to thank you for visiting and leaving a comment! I had hoped to swing by sooner, but life has gotten in the way of late.

Have a nice weekend...~Lisa
