Here's what I've done today besides sanding the Toscana garden's tiles
The bowls are an experiment, had some clay left over and tried something new. They still have to be painted. The olive tree was fun to make, have been thinking for days how to make it. The trunk and branches are cut from wild blueberry and painted. The olives are small flowermaking things painted and the leaves are cut from artificial plant leaves that are exactly the right color. The tree, the wannabe-lavender and the small garden showel (or whatever) are going to move to Wanda's greenhouse, hope you like them :)
Now off to do some more sanding, I hope that I could do the tiling to the garden today and would love to get the house wall plastered, just need to do an outside light so most probably not going to be done today :D
I've now decided that I'll do a small dragon themed roombox, ordered a fab brass dragon stamping for the wall, that's about all I've decided there is :D Some table is needed also, I'm thinking a Tudor styled one would look fab. Maybe it will be a dragon slayers room :)
And should cut today also the Indian roomboxes walls, just have to decide what's the interior finish on them. And the roof style is already decided but need to do some light before putting it in it's place.
So better to go and do stuff :D
Oh wow, now a dragon room in the works too??!!! Fun fun fun!!
VastaaPoistaI love the olive tree Ira. And the bowls are PERFECT - I can never get bowls and plates to be perfectly round with clay. How the heck did you do that??

More lovely plants - your olive tree is perfect!!
VastaaPoistaThat olive tree is fantastic. But what do you mean by "wannabe lavender" - I'd be glad If I were able to create such a wonderful lavender pot! And your future plans sound very interesting. Go ahead, the idea of a dragon room sounds great.
VastaaPoistaIra your olive tree is great, as is all your 'stuff'. You must have the most fast-paced blog on the web, always something new in the works!
VastaaPoistaEverything is wonderful, you're so full of good ideas! The dragon room sounds very interesting.
VastaaPoistaMaia
Busy, busy! Aren't you? Love the olives!
VastaaPoistaThanks girls :) Kristy, I used a wooden bowl as a mold and then lots of sanding :) And the lavender is just made with Flowersoft and this mini fir looking thing, which is too green in my opinion, should be more grayish green :)
VastaaPoistaJust excellent!! You are working very hard and all the minis are so lovely!!!
VastaaPoistaHugs,
Meli
Olive tree is simply gorgeous!
VastaaPoistaWhen, at the end of the day, I read your blog, I feel like a fool to devote all my energies to a stupid Victorian house prefabricated!
VastaaPoistaYour experiments have succeeded very well today: the olive tree is too cute, the bowls have an interesting feature: You'll find beautifully decorated!
I have fun with your ideas and results :-)
¡Que trabajadora! No termino de disfrutar de un trabajo tuyo y ya has terminado otro mejor. La idea de poner el olivo en un saco para el traspalte es perfecta. Besos Clara.
VastaaPoistathe bowls are perfect and the olive tree is just too precious!
VastaaPoistaThank you all :) And Flora, shut up, your house is beautiful :)
VastaaPoistaIra I missed this. The olive tree is amazing...making trees is fun huh :-)
VastaaPoistaI love the way you have it in a burlap sack..very nice touch.
