WHAT SWEET LOVELYES CAN THE POST BRING--AND MY FIRST MAKE-DO

 I have met the sweetes friend-Paula, in the community of blogs- and we have become close friends.
She is the most dear woman, and the sweetest soul.
Last week- I recieved a gorgeus packet from her -just looks at this so darling doll, that Paula made for me.

She is so cute. I`m alwayes so happy when recieving a doll from someone, because it is not often,I guess because I sew dolls myself.So this little dear was welcomed with open arms.


But dear Paula, also made me other beautiful things-look at all those packages.
See the lovely strawberry, it is the sweetest ever, and the photo does not do it justice.
I will show you in another post, and the cute pink flowers.

This is the sweetest tag, I love the egg spring theam


A wonderful hanging  "bag" to hide beautiful stuff inside-see the fantastic old lace,and beautiful rosy fabric.


And a most sweet banner made from old doilies , such a sweet idea.

And look at this lovely bird- a mamma bird to a smaller one, Paula giftet me with ,in winter.
My sweet doll also had her own pair of wings ,so cute-and se the beautiful old lace,from a dress top-


I was so lucky,that I last year had bought this sweet little bed from my friend Solvejg, and mini Paula, fits beautifully inside ,don`t you think? Now she can rest there -she also have her own chair- as you will see later:)
I so love everything dearest Paula, thankyou from my heart, sweet friend, for all those heart and handmade beautiful art pieces, you gave me, and thankyou mostly for your beautiful friendship.
***********************

And the last photo to show you my first Make-Do
I have joined . Roses on my Table, and the wonderful artist Christina `s workshops.

Her name is Beth- I`m sure you know her from her blog Gathering  Dust
This is her beautiful tag, laying on top of a tine box...

opening it up ,I found those so sweet and wonderful tiny, baby shoes


Aren`t they the cutest? I so love them

And they came in their original box-well worn ,soft- and beautiful.
Beth new ,I could not find  old leather baby shoes, and found  this lovely pair to me.
Thank you so much Beth- it was so very sweet of you.
See inside the box--I just love this present.

A thankyou gift , send to The Netherlands

I had for long wanted to make a thankyou gift for Yvonne ----Yitte  to show her how much her beautiful OWOH gift to me ,means .She made it so extra, and I love it-and looks at it with joy, every day.
*******
So I thought a driftwood angel woul be a right thank you choice!

Also I wanted to show my thankfulness-by adding a heart

And I thought she should have a little nature from Bornholm ,too.


Because this gift from her, was so very beautiful and gorgeus.


This book made with much love and beautiful french fabric`s-was the winning piece - but Yvonne also made a wonderful envelope for it- and then she added a most beautiful collage-(shown last year when winning)

Everything she makes is fantastic- and so beautifully made-
go to see her newly posted book,(click her name above) she made in  Nellie`s class-it is a fantastic art piece

Also wanted to show you my blue Clematis , isen`t it beautiful-and so full of blooms just now.


I had the most wonderful time in Copenhagen, and misses my little Mathilde.
But it is also good to bee home again, to create-.
I wish you  a wonderful week ahead, and sends all my dear friends and followers happy spring greetings from a cold and rainy Denmark-also to you living with autumn around the corner .
Hugs and love-Dorthe

beautiful paper napkins


Now this is the finished collage, from my last post.
As you can maybe see, I have used a papernapkin to the background.

I found those napkins in an wholesale shop-and bought 12 packages à 12 napkins inside.
You can se there are 4 different prints on them- of beautiful schript.


I will put some in my Etsy  ,if someone could be interested in buying a packet.

I think they are gorgeus for backgrounds for collages of all kind-
AND for putting on your table :)


Tomorrow I`m leaving the island ,to go see my grandchildren in Copenhagen-
and my husbond stayes home,to take care of the shop.
I can`t wait to be with them for some dayes.
So now you know ,what is going on, if I dont get time to visit, you while I`m away.

I wish you all beautiful dayes- spring or autumn..
See you soon again dear friends.
Love and hugs-Dorthe
