Hello :) This is my last post for 2011 lol. I told you that i also took part in Caterina's  Christmas swap. I could not show you pictures as i only received my gifts yesterday. They where worth the wait. My swap partner was Mali This is what she sent me.
A beautiful wreath and a wonderful wooden box. Inside the box where these wonderful minis.

Look at this so tiny cat. The bears are also so small but they came out to blurry to show. The cake looks so real i could eat it lol. Thank you so much Mali. I am very happy with these beautiful treasures. I love your gifts.
