Simona's gift

Today started with two wonderful events.  I received notice that thes surprise parcel I sent a dear friend about a month ago, finally arrived at its destination. This was very happy news as I already thought it lost.

A few hours later a surprise gift was delivered right to my door, from one of the most generous ladies on the blogs, Simona.

A model bay house kit.

This is a photo from the catalog.  I already dry assembled it to see if I could build it, as this
is the first model ever for me to handle.  It was very simple.  I took it apart to be painted.  Will
show you the end product, as soon as it's finished.  However, it will have to wait a while as I have a project
that has to be finished before May 8.

Thank you dear Simona for your lovely and thoughtful gift.

For the project mentioned above,  my husband helped me build an IKEA "greenhouse" which I bought
two years ago.  I figured it will be good to put my straw market in it.  Made three new market stands
for the baskets and will have a lot of work filling them.
The hardest part will be making the floor for the greenhouse.  Will show you photos as soon as I
take them.

I hope you all enjoyed a nice Easter holiday.

Blessings and hugs

  16. What a fantastic gift from dear Simona... this house looks beautiful, offering fantastic possibilities... and loads of spaces to decorate is with lovely flowers in front of the windows and at the porch. I'm really looking forward to see what you're going to do with this kit and I am very curious about your actual project. Well, and about you happiness about the parcel that finally arrived... if anyone is out there to share your relief than it's me... *LOL* Thank you once again for so kindly thinking of me... you made my day!

    Hugs
