Treasures from the Sea of Galilee. Skarby z Jeziora Galilejskiego.


A bit more than a week ago I was taken by surprise when I learnt I was the very lucky winner of Drora's beautiful and summerish give-away.

And today my postman brought a little parcel from Israel exactly to our door.:) When I opened it I again was surprised to see more miniatures than Drora had generously offered in her give-away!


I love funny scarecrow and beautiful climbing roses and sweet little birdhouse! And look at this pretty really small heart shaped box!


I have to admit the shell-ish miniatures have stolen my heart!


Just when I was thinking how teeny these shells are, I opened this box and saw....


.....even more teeny tiny shels!


And this is a real treasure for me.:)


Because on the back of this picture I saw a sentence that brought memories of my trip to Holy Land back.:)


Thank you so much dear Drora!
Thank you for your generosity and sharing your talents with me!
It's a privilege to have your miniatures home! And thank you for bringing beautiful memories back!


Troszkę więcej niż tydzień temu szczęśliwy los pozwolił mi wygrać give-awaya u Drory. A dziś listonosz przyniósł mi paczuszkę wprost z Izraela. W przesyłce było więcej miniatur niż się spodziewałam.:) Wszystkie mi się bardzo podobają, ale to miniatury z muszelkami skradły moje serce.;) Spójrzcie tylko na te miniaturowe muszelki na pudełeczku, a w środku? Jeszcze mniejsze! Obrazek z muszelkami to skarb. Na odwrocie widnieje napis Skarby z Jeziora Galilejskiego. I ten napis przywołał wspomnienia wspaniałej wyprawy do Ziemi Świętej.:) Serdeczne podziękowania dla Drory za jej szczodrość i przywołanie wspomnień.:)
