Its not a fun day for me tomorrow i have to go to the hospital to have an MRI scan and forgive me for saying but i really dont have a lot of faith in hospitals or doctors anymore after the past few months, but at leats when i get home i can do some mini'ing that will be the highlight of my day. Its really cold here and not set to change anytime soon but thats as good an excuse as any to do minis i think my swaps are almost complete and i have so many projects left started but not finished im such a bad girl but something tells me im not on my own come on now you all know who you are lol...So what should i do next mmmmm decisions decisions!!

MY COMPLETED CANDLESTICKS
















Here are my completed candlesticks i think they came out really well i just used a few beads and bead end caps and believe it or not the candles are a few filter tips like you get in the tabaconists see you can find stuff for minis everywhere but i dont smoke lol...




I GOT A NEW CAMERA







Happy new year sorry im late, i got a new camera today so im able to post pictures of the footstools i mentioned the other day they are going to be used in a group swap i only get to keep one myself i think they look ok i just hope the people who are to recieve them will like them.
Unfortunately i still havent finished the new house i got just before christmas but over the next few days i plan to finish wallpapering all the rooms that are left do the flooring and add lights then add all the pretties thats my favourite bit filling them all up with furniture and minis, so far this year i think im doing well....oh yeah i need to get pictures of my completed candlesticks i think they look ok tooi'll post pictures of them tomorrow.
The first couple of pictures are my footstools in progress showing what i used altogether to make them the last couple are of the finished footstool i realise now i should have taken a picture of the footstool side on too because you cant see the feet from this angle the photos are not too great im no photographer thats for sure lol.....

PLEASE SANTA I FORGOT SOMETHING!

Today has been absolutely horrible weather ways, really not a day for going out anywhere. so i got some swaps sorted out i finished needlepointing what are going to be footstools for a swap group im in online but unfortunately i still cant take any pictures i think i might just give in and buy another camera, if it had happened before christmas i probably could have put camera on my wishlist but these things always happen later and i have lousy luck lol....(wouldnt you know it?) so i suppose im just going to have to buy my own unless santa comes back pease i forgot something lol...
never mind at least im heading in the right direction getting things completed i set out to, all apart from my 20 odd dollshouses.... now dont get excited most are still in boxes and i know i should be getting on with those but i need to get my swaps out of the way first then i promise to complete a house (honest lol...!!)
