Tiny Knitted Teddy Bear!

My dear friend Drora of Drora's Minimundo sent me a miniature knitted teddy bear all the way from Israel. You see, after I wrote about my miracle miniature teddy bears, Drora asked if I'd like one of her hand-knitted teddy bears to add to my small collection. Would I like one?! Are you kidding? I'd LOVE one!

The new teddy bear is totally adorable and fitting in famously with my other miniature teddy bears. Here's a candid shot I took of all of the bears making friends. Drora's bear is second from the left. Isn't he cute? :-)

And then look at all of the other precious things Drora sent:

More beautiful gifts from Drora

There's a bigger bear that was cuddling the tiny knitted one when I opened the package, an adorable mini water cooler, and one of Drora's famous Ferrero Rocher candy boxes--yay! She also sent several beautiful shell ornaments, including a wall hanging, a bowl, and two covered boxes, one with a teeny tiny necklace inside. Everything is so lovely and precious.

Thank you so much, Drora! I love all of your gifts, especially your gift of friendship! If you haven't seen Drora's blog, please check it out. She has great tutorials, makes wonderful miniatures, and holds fun giveaways.


I received another precious gift late last week all the way from Norway--a blog award from Mona at Remme Dollhouse, one of my favorite blogs. If you haven't seen Mona's blog, I recommend you check it out too. :-) Thank you, Mona! How thoughtful of you. I'm sharing this award with all of you, dear readers, because this blog would be a very lonely place without you. :-) Until next time.... xoxo Jennifer

Teddybears are very good in making friends, with other teddies or with human beings... ;O) Drora's little bear is so precious, I always stand in awe for someone who is able to knit so tiny... - You received the most lovely gifts from a very talented and charming lady, Drora sure is one of the many people who make blogland a nice place.

You are very welcome, Rosamargarita! I didn't realize I still had no word verification. I tried it but had some spam in my blog comments and in my email, so I thought I put word verification back ON. I'll leave it like this (OFF) for a while--it makes you very happy! :-D Jennifer

Drora's little knitted teddy bear is so adorable. And, I can't get over her box of Ferrero Rocher. Hope I have the spelling right. I recently started mini knitting and I love it. I can appreciate all Drora's work on that little teddy bear.
