House Move

Last Thursday was my birthday; on that day, I had my husband come home just before midnight and I also signed the final contract and got the keys of our new house. It was a great day for me.


The secret friend from UK sent me one pack of BD presents before the volcanic ash and what I got is: a cute birthday girl card, a cupcake (a tape measure <-- now I bring it with me to measure the sizes of furniture everyday), a lovely bookmark and the photos of my cat. She knows I don't have a printer at home yet and now I can bring my cat's photos with me. I am touched with everything she prepared for me!

This week we are on the way to move and tonight is the last evening to stay in the castle; it's almost time to say goodbye to the little apartment where stores a lot of beautiful memories. I believe our life is going to change and I expect to be back to the mini world soon.

À bientôt!

Featured on Les Minis de Dongedy

I am so proud to be featured on Les Minis de Dongedy by Dongedy, who is an excellent French photographer that I admire. With her penetration, she finds the accurate tiny scene that mini men can work in the surreal universe.

Her works show good sense of humor and most of them make me smile. Thank you, Dongedy!

Welcome to visit her Blog, Flickr and Etsy Shop. You will find a lot of treasures there!

Afternoon Tea & Birthday Cakes

Yesterday afternoon I went for shopping in the supermarket and bought some chocolate bread and waffles for the teatime in my neighbor’s home. She is my company during my husband is absent. She is broad-minded and optimistic. I like to be with her cause she always cheers me up.



I also took some photos of my minis in her place. This week, I try making some canes, like strawberries, passion fruits and candies. I have been playing polymer clay for several months but this is the second time for caning. It’s fun but also as long as I imagine. I makes some cakes too since my birthday is coming next week.



We are going to move in the coming two weeks and my neighbor is so interested in our studio and would like to rent it after we leave. From the view of her own, I understand how she likes our balcony and the view of Golf.



During the week, I receive two “House Move” presents form two friends: “MyFrenchCuisine” paints a cake plate for us. It’s pretty and delicate with rose pattern on it. Another one is a secret friend from United Kingdom. She sent me a colorful castle card and congratulates on our moving. Even it’s just simple words, I am really touched. They both and my neighbor are my remedy when I am lonesome.


Last evening I started thinking how to arrange the messy house cause my husband will come back soon.

Just now he gave me a phone call and said he was blocked in Narita airport; due to the volcanic ash, all the airports in Europe are closed. He waits for ten hours and decides to take the flight to Taiwan. Gosh! I have been waiting for him coming back this evening but now I will still need to wait for several days.

The most funny is he will meet his brother and her sister-in-law who move to Taipei recently. I wish I could go too! *LOL* & * weep* :~

Okay, I need to find something to do otherwise I must be bored in the silent castle. Maybe it’s a good idea to clean the house; I feel always refreshed after trashing all old dusty stuffs. :-) Have a great weekend!

Alice in Wonderland ◆Alice au Pays des Merveilles

During the weekend, we went to the cinema and saw the 3D movie “Alice in Wonderland”. The story is simple but the tea party scene is quite interesting.

After Alice dinks some kind of magic liquid, she becomes a tiny girl. Her little blue dress does make me crazy.

I imagine I could find some similar dress for my dolls but I find one stunning “Mad Hatter” doll on Etsy.

It's cool, non?! :)

My husband is going for business trip for two weeks. This time I don’t go with him cause I need to stay home and prepare to move by the end of April. So I got an extra Easter gift –a small bicycle! When I feel bored at home, I am able to go biking with my neighbor Elizabeth.

I passed a couple of cozy days last week and did not make any minis. I hope I can find some new ideas and inspirations to continue my next projects!
