My wonderful win!:)

As you all know by now, I am Ericka VanHorn's fan, I love all her miniatures and her incredible imagination:). Sometime ago I was one of the lucky winners of her give-away and won a wonderful book. Ericka emailed me if I had an idea of what she could put on the pages so I sent her a few pictures I liked leting her to choose. Yesterday the book arrived home. She even added a poem to the picture! Just look at that! Isn't it fantastic?!;D

Two close-ups so that you could see the picture well.


Wish I had a mirror like this one.;D
Thank you sooooooo much Ericka for this wonderful gift! I promise to use the book soon and it will be presented in Spinner's End for sure.:)
Also this pretty escritoire is my new purchase that arrived this week too. Don't really know where I will use it but it was so pretty I couldn't resist.;D

Wczoraj dotarła do mnie moja wygrana w give-away'u Ericki VanHorn. Jak wiecie jestem fanką jej miniatur więc ta wygrana sprawiła mi wielką przyjemnosć. Ericka napisała do mnie z pytaniem jaką chcę książkę, a ja przesłałam jej propozycje obrazków - które mi się podobały - do wyboru.:) Sekretarzyk, na którym leży książka jest całkiem nowym nabytkiem, zajechał również w tym tygodniu do domu. Jakkolwiek wiem, gdzie znajdzie swoje miejsce książka, to póki co zupełnie nie mam pomysłu na to, gdzie postawię sekretarzyk. Ale jest taki ładny, że nie mogłam się mu oprzeć.;D

Lucky Ewa!! Ericka's books are so addictive!
Mirrors have a deep magic about them - it's an interesting picture you chose, and the poem is a nice touch :)
The escritoire looks perfect for displaying a collection of writing equipment. Will you age it or leave it as it is?
