Long for spring

Everywhere in Blogland you see people long for spring. I also wish spring would start yesterday ;). Today I want to show you the carnation embroidery I finished.



On the background you see the color I picked for the master bedroom on the first floor. I plan to hang the carnation and other flowers on this wall.

When I was grocery shopping yesterday I came across these......carnations!!

Of course I couldn't resist them, so here you can see the colors I love for my house:

Grey's, green, wood and a little accent colour like pink.

Have a nice day!

Welcome

On behalf of my doggie and me!

It's about time I welcomed you here, because 9 new followers have arrived.

Starting with Miniaturemaid and Cheryl. I can't find links, but I now Blogger has problems sometimes, so if you do have a site/blog let me know, welcome!

Marit at http://blackcatcottage.blogspot.com/. She's very good in working with wood. I really like the tool she bought for it! Oh, and I had to keep Benz away from the screen, she didn't like the black cat. Think it's because she's so small, some cats are bigger then her! ;)

Michelle at http://michelle-minithings.blogspot.com/. She's building a house in brocante style and I can't stop drewling over the nice pictures!

At http://minilisa.blogspot.com/ you can see some very good results for workshops. I really like the attic you've made! And MiniLisa is also in the proces of renovating a house (1:1) I'm very curious, 'cause it looks really cozy!

Sylvia at http://miniaturasnatasylvia.blogspot.com/ has a very lovely house called Villa Natalia. Have a look at all the details and beautiful stuff!

Bogna has 4 different blogs, but I'll give you one link:

http://dollknitandcrochet.blogspot.com/. Those dolls look beautiful and I wish I could design the patterns like she does. Very good crocheting.

and Meli at http://casitasdemeli.blogspot.com/ (thanks for adding your site) I've just started following you too and love your work!

Ingrid also added her site: it's http://www.mijndroomwereldje.blogspot.com . I really love the style and colours and also the houses she made for the ceramist and tailor.

Now I'm off taking some pictures for an update. See you!

first floor

I'm so loving this! I've permanently attached the first floor on my house and now I'm working on the roofbeams and dividing walls.

The whole planning thing starts all over again; were do I want the lights, what do I need to do first now....I think that aspect of building your own house is really great! So I'm off dreaming again, have a nice day!

Embroidery

These are the pillows I promised to show you. I embroidered them without a pattern and I think I like the right one best.
















In the Dolls House Nederland magazine there was a pattern for some lovely embroidered slippers. I changed it into a Harry Potter themed one for my dear friend Annemieke who had her birthday last week. We were very surprised they actually fitted on her Harry Potter doll haha!!! I also gave her some pillows with the Hogwart logo printed on them for her 1:12 sofa.

I'm currently embroidering a carnation painting in miniature (pattern here) , so relaxing in front of the tv!

Workspace

I've been working on my dollhouse, but just little things I don't want to bore you with. Just some finishing touches on the ground floor and now I'm moving up a level!

Last week I also got a really big present from my boyfriend, and I mean reaaaally big! At his work they were throwing away a huge desk because it was slightly damaged. He took it home for my workroom (and got himself some big kisses and good food LOL) and I've been rearranging this room for 2 days now! Here's the result:



















Benz already took her first nap here, so I think she's ok with the arrangement :)

It feels so good to finally have it all organized!

Tomorrow I will post pictures of 2 pillows I embroidered. Need some good light to take a photograph.

Have a nice evening!
