EXTRA BONUS TO GO WITH THE PAJAMAS GIVEAWAY
These leather slippers (all handmade by me) will go with the pajamas to the winner of the giveaway on June 15, 2012.



Working on a special inclusion to go with the pajamas giveaway...will show you when done.
In the meantime, here are some pics of my most recent mini purchases:
Mini Books in Cardboard Box with Shipping Label


I made a cardstock shipping box for the books I purchased
from Carrie Lavender of "A Lavender Dilly".


Also bought some lovely plates and an apron.

These will go into a vignette with an old 1920's Roper Kitchen Stove, Monitor Top Fridge and Porcelain Sink. I adore the birds plate as I love to watch birds; birdsong is one of my favorite sounds.

She makes wonderful mini things!

The striped label on my carton came from this site:
These are presented in "fillable" form or as blanks in Adobe Reader format.
I filled in one of the labels with Carrie's partial address along with mine, then used the select tool to highlight one of the labels, took a snapshot (under the edit dropdown) pasted it into WORD then adjusted the picture to the size I wanted using the rulers at top and bottom as a guide, then printed.
LOTS and LOTS of great labels for all sorts of things. I still haven't explored all of them.

100+ FOLLOWER GIVEAWAY!!!
DRAW DATE:   JUNE 15, 2012
Hey, out there!
Hope everyone is doing well...
Finally finished the project for my 100+ follower giveaway.
At last, something for the man of the dollhouse.
These are 12th scale men's pajamas. Blue and black plaid on white with black piping and drawstring pants.
(These do not fit a doll; just for display only)
TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAY, LEAVE A COMMENT ON MY BLOG AND POST THE ANNOUNCEMENT ON YOUR OWN BLOG SIDEBAR.
I will have my etsy shop open by Wednesday morning, I hope. I have heard through the "grapevine" that etsy is attempting some changes that may not be handcrafter friendly.
Let's hope it doesn't change for the worse.
Have a good week!
