~ My first miniature give-away ~

This is my first "Miniature" give-away!

I've done many big -girl give-away's and figured it's a perfect time to do a mini one now! As always , it's my way to Thank all of you for being such wonderful friends and followers!

Even though it seems miniatures have taken over my blog somewhat, I'm still itching to do many posts on my usual design inspirations and before and afters and posts on my Cottage home life too. But yes, miniatures are for now , the nicest way to get through the winter here in snowy NY. The fun thing about doing them is, I can use such pretty spring colors and live vicariously through the scene's I create. So I've decided to create a little vignette and give it away as "hope for spring" package :)

My Miniature give-away includes the miniatures above.... A beautiful granny apple green mini Le Creuset dutch oven {which doesn't open, sorry, I wish it did too :), it's actually a refrigerator magnet} , A pink depression glass mini plate with pretty lace edging, a Jadeite copy candlestick, A small bakery island hand-painted with pink roses and vines ( a little smaller than 1" scale because I believe this is meant to be a "kneading table" and lower in height ) A beautiful pink and white pottery bowl, ( just like a Pyrex ), a pretty pink striped napkin, a spring green polka dot plate topped with a vanilla cupcake and rose, a sweet little sugar bowl with cherries, and last but not least , a cupcake blackboard sign :)

Btw, you don't have to have a dollhouse or room box to enjoy Miniatures! I think they make wonderful little pieces of art and a great conversation pieces anywhere in your home. I took this picture below to show you how I sometimes display my own miniatures.....

Here are some up-close photos of the table and items...


A yummy vanilla butter-cream cupcake, just for you :)


And this is an up-close shot of the pretty detail in this miniature Le Creuset...so cute , huh?!


And now ,on to the easy rules...Just leave me a comment and you're entered. I'm going for the simple one this time, no fuss, no work :)

I'll draw a name on January 29th and close out the give-away at 9am ( Eastern time ) on that day...

That's it, simple and sweet :)

I hope you are all having a wonderful week! It's another snow day here today and really pretty and sunny too... the snow is sparkling :) If we "have" to have so much snow, lol, then it might as well sparkle!!

Here's a bit of cake to leave you with , perfect for the hips :)

Have a great weekend everyone and thank you for being such sweet friends!!

Love,

Cynthia xo
