And the winner is.....

Well, you're all winners in my book but alas in the give away there can only be one and the lucky lady is...
ina!

Congratulations doll! Please write your shipping info to my email: heidi-puppet@hotmail.com

I'm sorry that it took me a few extra days to find a winner but I was put out of the game by a vicious jet lag.. I had an amazing trip though and I'll do a post on it soon...

Greetings from...

...The happiest place on earth!!!!

Just letting you know we're having a great time enjoying every sunny minute!
-and a small reminder not to miss the give away!

Kate Bush

She's a legend and one of my all time favorites... Her voice has been with me ever since I was a little girl. I have all of her albums and I will never grow tired of her music -and she's stunning!

I miss my sis...

My sister is in Australia right now -literally on the opposite side of the globe from Denmark (actually New Zealand is but close..) I miss her... She's having a great time getting ready to go to Brisbane after 3 weeks working at a hotel in Charleville... She'll be surfing and enjoying Spring soon...
Here we both are 25 years ago in my grandmas kitchen... (Yes, there was a time I wore a tracksuit..)

To be young again...

This is me.. about 10 years ago... in my early twenties, my Harlow days, platinum hair and all...

Give away!!!!

As promised here's a gift for you my darling followers as a small token of my gratitude....
I've tried to make a Danish theme..

Here you go!

A repro postcard with a lovely pin up made by Christel -an amazing Danish illustrator. She's very famous for her pin ups but she also made paper dolls and many book illustrations. This lady is from a pin up calendar she made in 1945, Miss August rolling in the hay..

Lovely repro paper doll, it's made by the Danish illustrator Gerda Vinding in the 1940's. I did a post on her. Sadly this was the only sheet I could find right now... I wanted to find and give the bridal sheet she won 2nd place for in an international paperdoll contest but it was nowhere to be found... See more of her wonderful designs here

Mermaid brooch with pearl (all faux, off course..) Because we (by we I mean Denmark..) are famous for the H.C. Andersen fairytale "The Little Mermaid" and there is also a very famous statue of her on Langelinie here in Copenhagen.. Well, technically she's in China right now but she'll come back to us soon, we lend her to China for their World Fair in Shanghai.. 'cause we don't mind lending out stuff and sharing.. but our tourists are understandably a bit disappointed when they see the empty spot...

Red and white swan brooches.. Plastic and rhinestone, Danish Design made in Denmark;) (from the 80's but a bit deco in their style...) The white swan is our national bird.. and the red swan and white swan together symbolises the two colors in our flag, Dannebrog.

Necklace with tiny white lovebird in a gilded cage made by me:) -a Danish person living in Denmark..

So all you have to do is comment to let me know that you are in the competition! Twit or blog for extra chances.... I will be drawing a random winner this time (it was too difficult to choose one last time....)

I will be drawing the winner when I get back from my vacation (have I told you I'm going on a looong awaited holiday?;) I'll be back on Sep. 29th so I will be drawing a winner on Oct.1st.  That should give you plenty of time to enter.... and me a couple of days to get over my jet-lag...

I wish a were a rich girl so I could send each and everyone of you a gift;)
Good luck, everybody!

Give away.. tease...

I made it! 100 followers! YAY! Thank you people!!! I'm still putting together the give away -I promise I'll hurry... and it'll be good!
I will put it up later this week -because in one week and a day I'll be flying to Las Vegas!!!
We will have our annual, much needed, vacation in the States, I can hardly wait!!! -and I'm still open to suggestions on what to do and see in the Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Diego, SoCal area... I got a little advice here... Thank you so much but I'm open to more, please....

Wouldn't it be sweet to win the jackpot?! -or the Mega Bucks?
It's not very likely to happen though, especially since I'm not much of a gambler and seeing that my father in law, who lives in Vegas, tried winning for the last 30 years with nothing much to show I'll be spending my money on stuff that really counts like Cream Soda and Krispy Kremes;) ..and shoes!
