....this amazing basket of lemons arrived in the mail very unexpectedly....It is made by 'miniature extraordinaire' Kiva Atkinson. I adore Kiva's work & wished to one day own a piece, but I was so surprised to learn that Sophia Twaddle had this piece commissioned especially for me! I was so thrilled & then shocked that some-one would take the trouble to do this for me!!!
It is an amazing gesture of kindness from Sophia & I thank her with all my heart. Needless to say....I love them & they will look fabulous in the 'petite maison'....
....two such amazing ladies....Thank You xx
Visit Kiva... http://kivasminiatures.blogspot.com/ & Sophia... http://smalltalk-minilover.blogspot.com/
I must add...look at the amazing texture on the lemons, they look so real!! ...(even when the photo is enlarged)

Wonderful !!! I love everything. Such a great addition to your kitchen or winter garden.I have to call on Kiva... Have a nice day Rosanna
Linda, I am also the proud owner of Kiva's work. I bought her Indian feast and desserts some months back so I know her work well, having seen them in real life. Your friend has given you a work of art! Be very nice to her :):) but you must have been for her to return the favour with such a grand gesture !
Ooohhh that's great!!!! There are such wonderful people in blogland!!! I can understand your surprise!!!!
Have a nice day
The lemons are really amazing. I can understand your surprise and your joy.
