Hello Everyone :) This is my last post before Christmas though I will hopefully have time to have a look at your posts. The last thing I expected today was another wonderful gift. They were from Karin she sent me some beautiful items  specially for my roombox. Look at these wonderful gifts.
It was very hard to take good pictures as it is raining here and this does not do these wonders justice. I did not have a space for the beautiful candle arch so I made a shelf to put it on  Karin I hope you like :))))

Thank you so much Karin I love your gifts. They finish off my roombox beautifully.
Speaking of finishing that's just what I have done :) I have made a scene for the top of the roombox. I used the lid off a shoe box that fit perfect on the top and filled it with snow. Here are some pictures I hope you like.
I got the lovely little wooden crib at the back in a charity shop for fifty cents.

Full view of my Christmas roombox.


With the lights on. The "lights" is a flashing Christmas necklace lol it was only 1 euro and was perfect for the tree pity they only had 1 left though :)))

This is it with both Christmas lights on. 
I really enjoyed making this roombox it was great filling it up with help from so many friends :)))
All my family are rather impressed with it even though they are not "into" minis :DDD
I would like to a BIG THANK YOU to all my followers.  I would also like to say a Very BIG THANK YOU to the so many friends who have enriched my life by your wonderful friendships. 
WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND MAY 2013 BRING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY'S  HEALTH HAPPINESS  AND MAY YOUR WISHES AND DREAMS COME TRUE.
HUGS TO ALL MY WONDERFUL FRIENDS.

Hello Everyone :) As you know blog friends are Real friend but now I also believe that they are also mind readers lol. I sent  some Christmas gifts as a surprise but the bigger surprise was that they also thought the same thing :)))) One of them was Drora I showed her wonderful gifts on my last post I think our packages past each other on the plane :D The other one was from Birgit and Flutterby and wow what a package it was. Everyone knows that Birgit is one of those extra special bloggers that you fall in love with :) so I was very happy to get such treasures from her.
So many beautiful items including some yummy chocolate. Sorry Birgit the chocolate santa didn't last long enough for the picture hehe.

Wonderful books.

I loved these tiny items since I saw them on a blog and now I have my own they are gorgeous.

Look at the wonderful details.

A box of mixed games tiny game pieces included wow
And this has to be from Fubby it has his picture all over it ;) he even parted with some of his strawberries wow how sweet is that :))))

Thank you so much Birgit and the gang I love all your beautiful gifts and will treasure them always. You have made me a very happy woman :))))
I knew  there was a reason that there was a space left in my Christmas room :))The tiny trees are on the fireplace but I could not get a good picture of them.

I have almost finished my roombox and roof scene. I will show you some pictures before Christmas.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday time and are not too stressed ( is that possible lol )
Hugs to All my Friends

So many beautiful items. Wonderful carpet beater an adorable snowman teapot. He will go into my Christmas room. I love the little doll and after Christmas he will go into my toy shop. Isn't he adorable.

Hello everyone :)  Christmas is well and truly here lol. On Saturday the 1st my Mother was 83 years young. My Mother is a wonderful person I will tell you just a little bit about her. She has so much energy and so full of life she puts me to shame haha. She loves to sing and still get up to sing when asked :) She goes every week to an "old folks home" to entertain the people there and sings for them. If anyone asks her to sing a particular (old) song and she doesn't know it she will find it and practice it to sing the next week. The funny thing is that my Mother is older than most of these folks lol I hope she is singing for many more years :)))
I have a few more pictures of my room box still lots to do but I thought you might like to see how I have got on.
I made the bunting and the wall hangings.

The fireplace is a Christmas ornament i have a few years.

I made a skirt for the tree and some more decorations on it.

The little red and green ornaments hanging on the fireplace were made from a tutorial on Monikas blog I didn't have any moss so I used pom-poms but I think they look pretty :)))

I also made this little snow scene in the bottle. I made the tiny snowman from fimo he did have a hat but it fell off :D and the tree is a tiny piece of pipe cleaner. The hardest part was trying to stick the little stars to the inside of the bottle lol. I hope you like my room so far I am having a lot of fun with it and plan on putting lots more into it including the bottle.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week and for all those of you that are not feeling the best I wish you a speedy recovery. Big Hugs to you All.
A big welcome to all my new followers I hope you enjoy your visit.
Hugs to All my Friends.

Christmas Room Box

Hell everyone :)  I hope you are all well. Everywhere you look now its Christmas . How did it happen so fast lol I do love Christmas its such a magical time and the shops always look so bright and cheerful. This year I have decided to do a Christmas room box and when I was visiting Ikea I found the perfect box. Its a nice size and can even be hung on a wall. Here it is after I put it together.
I still have a lot to do to it but I decided to show you what I have done so far.

I put the paper on light cardboard so that if I ever want to change it I only have to remove the card and not have to scrape any walls lol.
I have started to decorate a little tree for it and couldn't wait to see what it looked like in the room.

I have put lights on it too :) I am excited about this room box as I have never done one before. I have a lot more work to do on it as you can see :D I am not getting a lot done on it as at the moment I am finishing off Christmas swaps and gifts I should be posting them off very soon :) I hope you like my project and if you have any suggestions please let me know :)  When I have more done I will show you my progress.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend. Dont panic but tomorrow is the 1st of December :DDD
Hugs to all my Friends
