Surprises from Sylvia!


I was a very lucky girl with the mail last week! A huge package arrived on my doorstep filled with these beautifully wrapped gifts from Sylvia. They were almost too beautiful to open...almost!


Sylvia bought me this tin sign when she was in Paris a few weeks ago...merci!


I had admired a picture of a crown in Sylvia's 1:1 house and she sent me one!!!! Even hubby and the kids love this crown...although the kids do take turns trying to wear it, lol!


How gorgeous is the box Sylvia covered?! And look at those perfect little minis that were inside it.


Then there was this Dutch magazine with a feature on Sylvia's daughter's tiny apartment. I don't read Dutch but pictures of beautiful houses are the same in any language!
There was also a dress up doll for Liberty but she's taken that to show her class at school today...that girl LOVES 'show and tell'!
Thank you Sylvia!

Although these gifts are awesome. The thing that fascinates me most is the punctuality of the mail arriving in certain parts of the world (aside sensational late!). I do not receive mail from two weeks. I went to complain to the post office and they said that there is'nt sufficient staff :-(
The crown is beautiful: I also earthen head for a while '...
