Who wants a giveawaaaaaay?!?!?!

A few weeks ago I was finally able to do a little something in terms of minis. It isn't much or anything fancy shmancy, but I hope you like it. This is what I'd like to give you in the form of a giveaway. Yippee, my first!!!   LOL  

There are no rules. The only thing I ask is that if you are becoming a new follower you are doing it because you are actually interested in my blog, and not for any other reason. I know sometimes people wonder if you need to have a blog of your own, but for me you do not need to. It seems unfair to put limitations because I've met and shared so many things with people, with and without blogs. Everyone shares the same passion and interest for this hobby, and not having a blog doesn't make you any less likely to share your knowledge, feedback, experience, swaps, gifts, etc. So, come one, come all and have fun. LOL

Now on to what we've gathered here for....lol.......
This is what I have for now. I feel like it's missing something, so if I can I will try and figure out what that is and add it.

Here are a few close ups. These are just a few decorative items. You know how I like old and worn...lol. I tried giving these an old patina look instead of my usual rust. The little white one is some sort of dish I put together and painted white. It still needs a few touch ups, and I'm not sure if I should give it some wear.

Flowers close ups. These you've seen before and some of you seemed to like them so I made these for the giveaway.

And here is a pic of the inside of the buffet table. The paper on the doors is the same as on the top.

I almost forgot, I have to set a date for this thing...lol. I'm not feeling any of the days in June without making this giveaway too short, so I'll go into July. You can participate until July 5th. I'll do the draw on the 6th (my mom's b-day). Good luck!!!   =)

Have a beautiful day!

Tub of flowers

This is where some of the flowers have been transplanted to. I made a rusty "tin" container for them. I also made some garden stakes and of course they have to be rusty.  =)

A million flowers....

Okay, so maybe not exactly ONE million, but it certainly felt like I was making a million of them!

There are purple, blue, pink, yellow and white ones. I've already "planted" some of these, but I'm waiting on glue and paint to dry. So, in the meantime I thought I would show you these other things I made.  =)

I used some of the white ones here:

The little bird is a bead/charm that I glued to a toothpick, and the base is one of those jewelry findings. I rusted it up and eventually I think it will find a place on the porch of my house. I hope you can see it well enough. Taking pictures was a fuss!

"A" is for Alma. The name of my mini lady.  =D

Have a beautiful day!   =)

Some more firsts....

I made some of these some time ago to send to the fabulous Katie of (http://katiesclaycorner.blogspot.com/). That perfectly aged bench you see in the photo is made by her. 

That "heart" you see in the yellow flowerpot is supposed to be a "V".  lol  The two V's were part of a swap I also did a few months ago. I should probably take photos of what I received and post about it. =)

Aside from the "rusty" look, I also really like the "mossy" look....lol. I have other things I want to moss just haven't gotten around to it. There isn't much to show here but I do hope you like it!  =)

Hope you're enjoying the weekend!

Extras accompanying the bookcase

I made the bookcase from the previous post as a thank you gift, which BTW, I really hope the recipient likes it. I didn't want to just send a lone bookshelf, so I made a few extras for the journey. They are not intended for the actual bookcase.

After everything was all packed and ready to ship I realized I could have rusted the zinc container a bit (just because I really like the rusted look....lol). It's okay though. We'll just say that it's never been used outside. =) That gray-ish thing on the bottom shelf is what is supposed to be made out of zinc, in case you're wondering. =D

Here's a closer look at the mossy letter. I really like this! Don't know why, just think it's cute!

Sorry for the poor lighting of the pics. It was all rain and gloom here this past week.

Hope everyone had a good weekend and ready for the week ahead!   =)
