Cute Miniatures

I love collecting miniature animals, especially little dogs

I found this little fellow at a gift shop yesterday, he wanted to come home with me!

 I love these 3 scottie dogs - the largest is a money box, the middle one I got from the Hobart doll and teddy show earlier this year, and the smallest I have had since my teenage years.  A little collection is starting..

A few mini dogs and Kimmi Dolls,  the one on the end I got at a garage sale in Burnie once - Kate got a chair at the same one! I love the little teapot and cup too.  The Rose Quartz and Calcite crystals are for peace and relaxation :)

 This duck family belonged to my grandmother from Scotland.  I love them, so adorable!!

 Dad gave me this rooster once, he bobs around and dances too!

 This little dog was from the Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne when I was there with mum earlier this year.  He is hanging out with his Kimmi Doll friend, the M was a gift from Kate once!

I found this sweet little cottage at an op shop in Burnie once, it came empty and I've filled it with pot pourri! I'd like to try making some of these some time - they would make cute gifts!!

Have a lovely day :)

Flowers in the garden :)

 The Nasturtium from Kate have been growing for 3 weeks now, and have grown heaps in the past week! I might replant them soon :) Cant wait for them to flower!

 This is a really sweet little plant with purple flowers :)

 This pink plant nearly died earlier in the year when I found it dug out of the ground by Patch! I planted it in this pot and have watered it heaps and today I saw these lovely pink flowers :)

 The pink plant has a relative in the rock garden! It was such a nice sunny day today too! 

 Miniature Rose bush :)

 Welcome to my peaceful garden :)

The flowers in the garden are really growing now, its a beautiful time of year!

Have a lovely day :)

Things seen at the chinese restaurant

 Had dinner at a chinese restaurant in Sandy Bay - it is called the Bund in Shanghai. Its a nice place with great food!  In the hall I saw these teddies, had to get a pic! I like the bear with the heart jumper, and the bear at the top in the brown jumper that says 'I love you'

I liked these paintings on the wall too :)

My Garden :)

With the lovely Spring weather I've been giving my garden some TLC lately.  The garden is a safe, relaxing and beautiful place to me :)

 These blue flowers are in a hanging basket which hangs outside my window -they look happy!

 A few of my flowers in pots -this was taken a couple of weeks ago when I had just planted my seeds (in the yellow and pink pots)

 These are my mini sunflowers 2 weeks old!

 These are my Nasturtium seeds which Kate sent for my birthday :) It was such a thoughtful gift! 2 weeks old  - I cant wait for them to grow more! They came up quick so far!! Thanks Kate xx

 My rock garden! The purpose of the stones is to prevent Patch digging up  the plants (which has happened in the past ) - It's worked so far :)  I also just like the look of the stones!

 This is where my beloved Jasmine grows! My favourite scent! I pick flowers off this bush to have inside and make the unit smell nice

 My buddy Patch - never far from where mummy is gardening!

Pot plant collection! It wasnt light enough inside so these plants are outside to soak up some natural light :)

Big W Handiwork!

I got these shelves from Big W! After a bit of a false start, I managed to assemble the shelves quite easily!

 From this:

To This!

I think it goes well and makes the bathroom look nice! It was fun to assemble too, I cant wait to make something else!

Elvis!!

I got this Elvis bear from Avon, he is so cute!! I got him because my boyfriend Pat likes to sing Elvis songs to me!! Sometimes I think he looks like Elvis too! We watched some Elvis clips on Utube a while ago and I was very impressed.  This cutie looks very much like Elvis haha!!

Love the Elvis hairstyle and the cool outfit :-) He's a happy fellow!!

Elvis and the gang!! I couldnt resist sharing some of the outfits Elvis bear came with - he is actually an Elvis dress up bear!! The green fellow is a Yowie who my friend Sooz gave me years ago he is sooo cute!! The teddy next to Elvis is a Myer bear from a couple of years ago, and Roger on the end was a gift from Pat last year he came with a sponge and bath foam!!

Rock on!!! xxx

Walkies!!!-Poimena Reserve Claremont

 Myself, Pat and Patch had a nice Sunday walk a couple of weekends ago, Pat likes to run with Patch, Patch also loves to look around in the bush!! Its a beautiful park we go there often to see the amazing views :)

 My two special boys hanging out at the lookout!! Looking down over Austins Ferry, it was a beautiful sunny day!

 Stunning View - I love the blue colour of the sky :)

Patchy had some time off the lead -he is a good boy!!
