Day 221: My Miniature Club's Xmas breakup & found some fantastic flickering LED's for my fireplaces

[@papabear2515]

What sweet Xmas minis! Those wooden bowls you won are gorgeous too! The fire in your fireplace is incredibly realistic! I could almost feel it’s warmth! I spent all day yesterday and today redoing my little art studio. Whew! I should finish tomorrow, fingers crossed! It had reached the point I knew I needed to do a complete clean up and rearranging. I’ve acquired quite a few things (including dollhouses to renovate) since the last time I did a reassessment of my studio space. So, I had to decide what to keep, what not to keep and then, how to rearrange things so they would be more functional for me. I’m almost done and I’m really happy with how it’s progressing! I’m ready to be done tomorrow so i can start creating in Monday. See you tomorrow! 💙 Kathleen

Of course you had your lovely purchases earlier in the year. So a clean up will allow you some work space. Roger and I are embarking on "Swedish Death Cleaning" here. Sounds grim but in effect it is clearing away all the stuff your children would have to deal with when you go 'elsewhere'. So far I have sold three books and looked (!!!) at the boxes in the garage. Sigh!

Well you had a special time at your club. The bowls you all did look very nice. The lights in the fire place are perfect. Just the right amount of flame.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 🍂🍁

I am REALLY happy with those lights. It was worth the fuss and the search for them.

Hello Jill, your group really does sound amazing, the little bowls are lovely, and congratulations on your lovely raffle win. The house front looks marvelous, the new flickering bulbs really do make a big difference, well done Roger. Have a great week ahead. Best Wishes from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 😊

Those ´glqss’ bowls look amazing as do the little turned bowls, you were lucky winning those. Ahh the ongoing saga of lighting good you have a sparky on hand.

It's Rogers new hobby. Thank goodness for that. The girls at the Greytown Club don't like me buying raffle tickets. Either myself or my Mum would win something. There's less chance in Lower Hutt as it is a bigger club but nevertheless.....

Wow, the fire in that fireplace looks so good, impressive! Those little bowls are so cute, I want to try my hand at that. Your raffle prize is nice too. I always like looking at that tile floor, you did such a great job on that, all of it is looking great! Thanks for sharing. :)

[@miniaturetimetraveller]

Thanks Karen. The bowls are very easy if you keep an eye open for clear Xmas baubles this year and stash them away.

What a great idea for bowls. They are all adorable. That fire is fantastic.
