A wonderful gift from Linda une-petite-folie.blogspot.com/ arrived this week. A beautiful sandwich and orange drink. I was totally amazed by the realism of Amanda Speakman's work. The added plus is that it can be used on one of my own plates. Linda also sent a gorgeous book that has a beautiful antique cover 'The Language Of Flowers', completely readable. It was made made by Maria ilcucchiainomagico.blogspot.com/ Thank you so much Linda!!!
This beautiful food board also arrived this week from a (nameless) Follower. Though I am not sure, I suspect it was also made by Amanda Speakman!
Thank you both so much ladies I am thrilled to bits!
COMING SOON!!!
Another nut house. The most challenging one I have made. I suspect the villagers are not going to be happy about their new neighbors.
I wish I could invite myself to share a cup of tea and those great sandwiches ;-)
ReplyDeleteBut now I am looking forward seeing your brand new nuthouse !!!
Beautiful gifts!!

That sandwich looks really appetizing, especially on a Stokesay Ware plate :) Mmm ... make me want to make a 1:1 sandwich, myself, and get out my blue and white!
ReplyDeleteThe sandwich board is definitely another one coming from Amanda's talented hands! I own a very similar one myself :)
