Well, I might need to pack the larger bags and not the mini ones. ;)
I'm going to Singapore to visit with Sans!
How cool, is that?!
I'm also going to get to meet Cindy, aka Snowfern.
I've dubbed them the Singapore girls. All are members of TeamMIDS on Etsy. With the exception of Sans, who Cindy and I are trying to have join us as a collector member. Yes, you don't have to sell miniatures to belong to our team. :)
Needless to say, I am thrilled and excited beyond belief and am ever so grateful for Sans' enormous generosity. Thank you so much, Sans!
Sans and Cindy will be my tour guides and are going to immerse me in the Singapore culture. There is so much to see and do there. It's going to be a fabulous trip. :)
The luggage in the above picture is made by Whimsy Cottage Minis, one of my dearest friends. :) The hutch and carpet can be found in my etsy shop.
I used to think I'd have nothing to blog about. Now, I have so much to blog about and not enough time to do it all. I guess, that's why my blog posts tend to be on the long side. Oh, well! ;)
Some recent work for Ray of Minibuilder for one of his clients.
This is the inspiration photograph.
And, this is the finished result.
I was so excited to win Tallulah Belle's giveaway.
I cannot commend Jayne near enough for how she did this giveaway. Such a novel idea, with a big impact for others.
Isn't this just the sweetest thing ever? I love it!
And, it is so tiny! As it always is with minis, they are always so much better in person, than the picture. I thought this would be like water pitcher size, but, it's more like creamer pitcher size. Tiny! :)
Thank you so much, Jayne!
Thank you for making a difference in other people's lives. :)
Until next time, my blogging friends... :)

Maia
How fun that you get to meet Sans and all the Singapore girls :) I am sooooo jealous!! That piece of furniture is gorgeous - he did such a great job! And congrats on winning - how fun!!
ReplyDeleteI think so too, Ira. :)
ReplyDeleteRay built this bed from scratch and I made the mattress and pillow.
Was yours a kit? To me it has a modern and a zen like look to it. I think it could work in either setting.
I'd love to see what you do. :)
Thank you, Rosanna for your sweet words. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm taking notes, one hug to Sans from Rosanna, and hello, or hallo to the girls, got it. :)
Sans! Did you know that I can't really write your name without the exclamation point? lol ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
Does your sis still have a shop, cause if she does, we have to put that on the must see list. :)
We'll figure out computer details in email, Sans. :)
I am very excited. :)
Here is the link for teamMIDS on etsy, the first page has all of the details and contact info. If you need help, just ask.

Flora, it sounds very exotic to me as well. I don't think I'll be disappointed.
ReplyDeleteIt is really wild to be traveling half way around the world. :)
Synnove, thank you and I think the meeting "the girls" will be one of the highlights of the trip. :)
ReplyDeleteGeneviève, maybe I can just do a photo a day. :)
ReplyDeleteA regular blog post takes me around two hours to do, and I don't want to waste that time there, you know? :)
I'm sure there will be much to show and tell when I return. :)
Thanks, Kim and Paky! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Caterina. :)
ReplyDeleteYou and mom continue to be in my thoughts. :)
One kiss from Caterina to Sans, got it. :)
智能 you are welcome, thanks for reading. :)
ReplyDeleteMaia, I'm taking nothing extra, must have room to bring back as many goodies as I can. :)
ReplyDeleteI might just leave my clothes behind, lol. ;)
Ara, your post snuck into the middle, I thought I lost it! lol
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Ara. You are sweet. Don't be jealous! I hope you get to travel before you are an old lady like me. tee hee ;)

ReplyDeleteMr. Pineapple Man, I can't believe it either!
ReplyDeletePinch me! :)
It so wild that I can't comprehend it and even when I come back, I'm sure I will be in amazement for a long time.
This trip is a gift. :) I thank Sans for making it possible for me, but I am sure, it will be a wild ride for all :) Better than Hershey! (did I say that?, shush!)
