Gifts for Ira, Nina and a question for Sans

First of all a very warm welcome to my new Followers! Glad you are here! And I hope you will have fun!:)

Ira wrote she is not patient when it comes to surprises so I decided to make a pre-view of what I will be sending to her hopefully on Monday.:) Dear Ira, these little things are from me to say thank-you for your good heart and for all the fun I have here - I hope you have it too ;)(If, or I should write: when ;)you decide to make HP house I can collect some Avon's jars for you too if you wish ;)) First of all you (or I should say most probably the skellies) will get these three very simple old books

From left to right we have here:
1. The cook book - "Imagine: how to make something to eat from the very bony beef"
2. The cook book - "Imagine: how to make something to eat from the very husky fish"
3. No, that is not a cook book it is a...family album!;)
Of course Ira you can name the books the way you wish. You should see the sale's man in the shop - I just loved the look on his face when I asked only for the skulls and bones.;)And as I visit the shop often lately he still asks me what I have done to that stuff:D Now there are a few minis more for you Ira:)

There is a top hat for Mr Poe - this one is made just of paper (right for the dead man I think;))I thought he may need something more clean when he is going on the date with this lady or ladies? (I can't recognize;)) Hope you will like the minis! :)
Now move on to dear Nina. You didn't say yes and you didn't say no my dear ;) so I am sending these little things for your future pub and a white-blue room. Hope you will like them:)
And a question for dear Sans: would you like something like these books?
Now I am off to bed. Good night:)

Oh, dear Ewa -- thank you so much! I love both the blue and white dishes (they're perfect!) and the wartime minis :) I did mean to write you back and say "yes" to them -- I'm glad you read my mind! Bless your heart ...

I am sure everyone will love them! The little plates with the skeleton mosaics are hilarious! Clever. CM

Happy dancing over here (between throwing up, woke up this morning and threw up on my dogs head... :D) The minies are fab - now the Maharadja will have some lean meal cooking books and I LOVE the family album :D

And all the rest of it is also fab! Where have you found those Mexican plates? I love them! Now to feel sick on the sofa.

Glad to read you like them Ira!:) The Mexican plates where this "something" I wrote I found right for you!;) I found them in a small shop with Mexican stuff but they were the only one pair there. Hope you will soon feel good again!

Sans! said...

Ewa, I love those Mexican plates, they made me laughed so hard and I thought they were just perfect for poor dear Ira who sounded so sick! Did you make those cookbooks? WOW! Too apt! And the cushions for Ira are real pretty. I think the Maharajah will want all those stuff. Poe can of course keep that hat ;P.

Your gifts to Nina are real pretty too.

I am grateful that you have thought of me :) and will gladly accept the books. They look like they are about fortune telling :). My email is on my blog :).

The Old Maid said...

Thank you so much, Michelle! I am slow worker really :) Look how long it takes me to finish that office ;)

The Old Maid said...

Muchas gracias Ascension! I really don't know what the plates are made of as I didn't make them at all:D

The Old Maid said...

Hey Sans! Glad to hear you would like them!:) I will contact you by email soon :)The books are very simple ones as I wanted to show these beautiful ornaments - so it is all about the covers not books really ;)

If I find more of these Mexican plates I will surely let you know Ladies :)

Eva said...
