Caterina's work is wonderful isn't it! I just love her blog, I have only become friends with her recently through her holiday swap and she is so lovely!!

One of my fantasies is to have a proper library with globes and library steps, etc. You'd never be able to get me out of it!!! Your charming little doll looks very excited by having something so beautiful to read and enjoy - and no wonder....!<br /><br />David xDr Huckvale's Castle of Art and Ideashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10066728779498254419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6183484942821961317.post-41339980970993078332012-08-15T23:00:14.252+10:002012-08-15T23:00:14.252+10:00Hi Blanche,

We share the same interest in blogs and miniaturists. I also really like the American Colonial House of Mulvany & Rogers. I am happy that a very short piece produced by the industrious hands of a woman of my land, Puglia, has come so far. I shall follow with interest the progress of your daughter.

I am happy that now my little book is in good hands, even if it is so incredibly far away from .. ha ha!<br />very nice also, the Pinocchio ceramic, congratulations on your purchase.<br />I joined the blog of your daughter, promise the world of miniaturists, good luck!<br />Finally, I borrowed the image of beautiful lemons, I think a nice project, thanks for sharing... and thanks to have put the link to my blog!<br />kisses from Italy :))<br /><br />Caterinacockerinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04469070517350088602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6183484942821961317.post-3151492036280357392012-08-09T20:32:00.526+10:002012-08-09T20:32:00.526+10:00Hello, Fi!
