You wonder if there is any meaning in whatever you do. And then someone does something that completely rejuvenates you and makes you happy and believe again :):) And when she tells you she wants to grow up to be just like you, then you know you must be doing something right even though she makes you sound like a 100 years old -haha<br /><br />I can't believe you have dreamt of this post! :) Just when I was remarking to someone this morning how sometimes the whole idea of playing with doll houses and miniatures is so frivolous when people in the world are going through such tough times. <br /><br />Yet, when I come home from a hectic day, and I sit down with my minis, be it gluing something very small or writing a silly story, time slows down and I can breathe properly again. And when you make such good friends , sharing this passion, everything makes sense. <br /><br />Thank you, my friend, for the sweetest words ever.

Are you really sending me some of you...Dear Lize, <br /><br />Are you really sending me some of your Saudi shells? awwwwww..<br /><br />Seriously though, I have already used up all the ones Eva gave me. They are all stuck inside the round box so that they do not fall out. I also don't think my doll can carry anymore unless you want the box between her teeth or worse, coming out of her ears! <br /><br />More importantly, I think I know now why I didn't make the box. I am incapable of making a good sea shell box because frankly, I don't really dig seashell crafts. I only like seashells as they are. It was just a challenge to me to see if I can make something I don't like, decently. I surrender.<br /><br />How about you try? I will love to see what you can come up with ;)! I am sure you can make me fall in love with a miniature seashell box, like a miniature HP printer ;) <br /><br />Love, <br />from someone completely defeated by seashells.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-71603073196466070552010-01-24T14:30:48.439+08:002010-01-24T14:30:48.439+08:00"I will buy" is most definitely music to..."I will buy" is most definitely music to any peddlar's ears, Ara, so thank you!

Even if it means staying up till 5am! LOL. I keep forgetting that your weekend is Thurs-Fri. <br /><br />On the shells bit, I wanted to add something about Eva bragging that "the Spanish seashells by the seashore shinning stronger than Saudi seashells by Lize's seashore while she's on a see-saw" but I was too groggy for poetry.<br /><br />The truth about why I took so long with the doll was also because of the seashells. I wanted to use them to make a miniature jewellery box but I didn't have enough to make a nice one. Trust me I stared at the shells till my eyes crossed. That's why when I saw that you had posted on seashells as well, I thought it was kismet!lol.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-69984841986606463952010-01-23T22:08:53.724+08:002010-01-23T22:08:53.724+08:00Eva, és la meva inspiració!

And wet? I can never tell that your weather is so dismal, looking at the pictures of your shed. Now, that is one cosy, pretty and warm room-well deserving of a place in American Miniaturist.

A bit like the Indian version of Wuthering Hills..(Beauty, struggle, drama and desperation) You only need your own young Heatcliff...How about a love story Sans?<br /><br />After starting off this story, you need to finish it.<br /><br />PS Very impressive research you did there!<br /><br />I waited last night, and waited for your post... eventually HAD to sleep as today my week started! So came home from work to read it... (No wonder! You only posted early morning!) <br />And do our minds think alike..

Totally overwhelmed because I did not expect a gift like this. Your post is great, and I really mean it. I've read it (3 times) with an open mind and seeing the relationship that you were building between my world and yours, which basically is the same. I liked very much. Of course not offend me that Eve is a gypsy or a peddlar wearing Peineta or about any of the other features she has. The important thing is that she is a strong woman with inner beauty and also its flaws. The story is hilarious at times, with touches of drama. <br />Peddlar, I had to look in the dictionary, now I know what it means.<br />When I saw the tittle of the post: My name is Eva was a great feeling. I knew at that moment that I gift for me was waiting. I smile, smli, smile....<br />I am totally sincere, I feel very honoured and happy. Thank you!<br />Muchos besos ;)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13184036827772168843noreply@blogger.com
