A win-win situation

Two weeks ago I was the lucky winner of Sylvia's giveaway. She sent me this wonderful hand crocheted shawl/ bedcover. As I don't crochet myself, it is doubly wonderful to receive a gift like this. You can see in the photos below how finely it is made and how beautifully it drapes! Sylvia ( lotjes dollshouse ) sure is a multi talented woman!

Yesterday I came back from a week's holiday in London (more on that in another post soon) and found out I had won another giveaway. How lucky is that?! I won Hanna's giveaway (Miniature Chef), a rustic board with handmade delicacies. Again something I don't do myself, so a wonderful gift to receive. Of course I will show photos as soon as it comes in the mail.


Thank you Sylvia and Hanna!

    Lucky you, beautiful things .
    Were you also on KDF? Linda and I were there all three days. There was a lot of shopping on both.

    Hope all is well with you.

    I feel lucky whenever I see a photo of your doll's house :-)
    You can always create a magical atmosphere, as Luck is not so blind as they say, in my opinion this is the reason why she chooses you ;-)
    Mini hugs, Flora

    Congratulations Josje! Both of them are beautiful prizes and am sure you will love Hanna's gorgeous work. I just got something in the mail I ordered from her.

    You better run out and buy a lottery ticket too. ;-)

    Congratulations, Sylvia's rug is beautiful and I too own work by Hanna and I am amazed by the detail she achieves.
    Now, they say things come in 3's....so I wonder what is next?

    (I'm guessing you bought some 'pretties' in London and I am longing to see them....?!)

    I'm also not a crochet woman and I understand you. The bedover is doubly beautiful.

    Ik kan me voorstellen dat je erg blij bent met beide prachtige kunststukjes. De sprei heeft in elk geval al een prachitg plekje gevonden.
    Groetjes, Roelie

    Sans, I hope you will be able to see the pictures by now!

    Catherine, yes it would have been a good time for me to buy a lottery ticket, wouldn't it?!

    Linda, I saw the fruit you bought from Hanna and it looked so good. I do look forward to receiving the cheeseboard!

    Heleni, jaaaa ik ook!

    Hallo Josje,

    Wat een prachtige pioenrozen. Heb je die ook zelf gemaakt? Ik wil ze ook zo graag maken, maar de moed ontbreekt me nog. Dat scheerapparaat is super.
    groetjes, Annemieke

    Dank je wel Annemieke. Sorry voor mijn late reactie, ik was met vakantie.
    De pioenrozen heb ik gemaakt met een kitje van Variaatjes http://www.variaatjes.eu/
    Ik heb de bloemen nog wel met verf bewerkt en de blaadjes heb ik zelf gemaakt, want die in het kitje zitten kloppen niet met de werkelijkheid.
    Groet, Josje
