Hello,
my, time flies! Once more it's that one day in the year when somebeary else is taking over "BiWuBären on the Blog". It's Halloween... and to me being the Major Witch of the Witch Towers it's a question of honor to bearsonally welcome you to a new post on this very special day. And the good thing about being a witch is that nobody or nobeary would ever think of not granting you such a modest wish. *giggle*
And as always I put myself in charge to work at our Magical Sales Shop while every magical being is preparing for the Night of Nights and hopefully finding out that some supplies are missing still and then dropping by or flying in at "De Spell's". Even witches and wizards need to make a living... *LOL* And I like working on this special day, although it's stressful with many customers being in a hurry everybody is in a cheerful mood and at the end of the day a wonderful party is waiting. And just among us... I prefer working here than participating in the party preparations. Take my word - even a very powerful beary witch like me doesn't want to stand in the way of the Magical Broom when he's doing the Halloween cleaning. Believe me... beneath the dust he also seems to sweep away any sense of humour for a day. *broadgrin*
And while Fluby and Rosey are on their way to the magical world - one in anticipation of many pieces of Knight Kunibert's famous apple pie "Snow White's Death" (btw that's what I call the magic of Halloween... if even the greatest strawberry addict in the world becomes an apple pie lover at least for one day) and the other one looking forward to meet my uncle. *grin* - they provided me with blog stuff I shall present to you. It's all about some things Birgit treated herself with - and now you know there's no typo in the headline. This is about treats... and who knows... perhaps also about tricks... like smuggling volume 93941 of "And once more many pictures of BiWuBearies in the garden" into a post at Halloween hosted by a Major Witch. But do not fear... no picture flood:
And in case you may have wondered - Fluby and Rosey did not miss the chance to gain themselves some good points in Santa's Golden Book by helping Birgit once more with the monthly update of her many calendars. Well, there are rumours that especially one of them is in need of every good point... however, here comes the evidence photo:
And now it's time to show some new treats Birgit bought for the North Pole project - and as I must admit that I often have no idea what the use of some of these thingies might be or why somebody should ever need them Fluby and Rosey agreed to provide me with the necessary explanations. For example you're about to see a duct tape holder... I would never need it, why should I... muttering the right stick-together-spell will do the trick much better than duct tape ever could. But I understand that this might be helpful for non magical beings... so... here come our experienced blogbearies showing Birgit's latest stuff to you.
* * *
Hello from Rosey and me - and honestly... it makes us wonder why Magica insisted on hosting this post while making us do the work. Really... she's one clever and smart witch... *LOL* And because Magica de Spell already mentioned it we're starting right away showing the duct tape holder next to some other gorgeous 3d printed pieces Birgit bought from DollhouseDesign. A bouquet of all sorts of miniatures being dedicated for the North Pole project.

Birgit also bought a cakestand, springform pans and a knife block for Einar's kitchen. The frames - and there are a few more of them - are meant for a very special purpose... but this is still a secret. However... one of you might be able to guess it. *wink* And the piece in the middle is meant to be a doll bed... but Birgit has other plans and is going to turn it into a special bed for Abby, the Christmas goose. And now let's have a closer look at the office set and the knife block:
Isn't this amazing - we're totally fascinated what is possible with 3D printing! Every knife can be taken out and the scissors even work... okay, when it comes to being movable. *grin* And the best thing is that you're able to choose the colors you need. It's easy to see why Birgit chose red and white for the knife block making it just perfect for the North Pole kitchen. And there's also a reason why the office set comes along in noble gold... it's meant for Ylvi's work desk. Well, we can't reveal much about Ylvi's work space yet but keep in mind that she is the Chief Elf of the Wishing Department... so the color gold might become quite important for her work area. *smile*
But sadly not all possible colors are available for all items in this shop. When Birgit bought a chair for Lasse's work desk (sad but true... even Christmas Elves need to go to school and have to do homework) she would have liked to have a transparent one but as this wasn't possible she decided for a color called "milky white" expecting this would be transparent too. And yes, it was... in some way... but not to Birgit's likings... and also not to Lasse's likings...
This way it did not fit into the color scheme of Lasse's room... but hey, these are the risks of ordering online. And my, problems of this kind are just solutions coming around in working clothes! *LOL* So it was time for a little makeover... and for a bit of that special Birgit touch. For some reasons which can not be explained here (but might be related to some special holiday at the end of the year which is coming closer so fast that every flutterybeary in need of good points can only panic... eh... where was I... oh yes...) Birgit happened to have plenty of leftovers from sticker lines. So she thought why not give it a try and reduce the waste by using at least some of those stickers? And you know Birgit... she did try!
According to us and - most important of all - to Lasse she turned his chair into a very special and totally unique piece matching with his room and fitting with his work desk. The main piece for this is the miniature version of a common chest of drawers called "Alex" being sold at a well-known Suedish furniture shop.
Birgit really wanted to have this for Lasse's room because the real life version of this is part of her own work desk. Strange... but she did not allow us to take a picture of this... well... let's explain it this way: There are too many creative ideas lying around at her work desk and she doesn't want this creative mess to be seen in public *teehee*. Anyhow, this miniature version of Birgit's "Alex" needed a very special treatment still to make it match with Lasse's room theme (and btw - anybody still thinking this was about frost and snow is already on the right trace.. but still... the real theme is in fact something else). It's hard to spot at the photo but the visible parts got a coat of white metallic paint and after adding some decorations it looks like this now:
Birgit also bought a seat for Lasse's chill-out-zone...
... and another seat meant for Lasse's parents which caused some questions around here.
Honestly... why would one need a seat after all which is... eh... totally grounded??? I mean... a cushion would do as well and that would be less expensive... or just sitting down on the ground. Well, we were really wondering why Birgit bought such a strange chair...
... and it took quite a bit of examination...
... but then we finally understood. So we weren't surprised anymore when Birgit painted it in her favorite green metallic color and came along with the red cushion being part of Lasse's bedding set (shown in our last post).
Anybody having an idea for the cushion? And the amazing benefit of that chair? We are convinced you do and that there will be no big surprise when we're showing you this now:
And now for the best thing of being a blogbeary: Testing!!! Yippiiiieeee!!! And because I am a gentlebeary from top to toe I remembered the good old rule "ladies first"... even if only my little sis' is around for the ladies' part... *giggle*
And I really need to point out that this was only a little joke. Really!!! As if I would ever mock my sister a few weeks before You-know-what! *broadgrin* And now it's time for a little parental advisory: Please send the minors away... the following is for adults' eyes only! Because now it's time for a flutterbeary striptease! Woohoo!!!
Ha, now I got YOU!!! Everybody thinking I would go naked now was seriously mistaken! Even if I take off my wings I'm still fully dressed. Remember - a flutterybeary would only be naked without the bell around his neck. *teehee* But back to the topic... Rosey and I are totally in love with this stunning swing chair. I would love to have one for Strawberry Cottage too... if I only had the space. *sigh* Oh, speaking of space... Birgit also cared about some storing space for Lasse by painting a gorgeous hamper set being bought from Artofmini. One set consists of 2 hampers in 2 sizes - at the photo you can see the smaller one already being painted and the bigger one in its original state.

And we're ending today with giving you a hint of what Birgit is doing next... once more related to the theme of Lasse's room... with the help of 3D prints bought from Nalladris.

And before we leave for today (remember - there's a Halloween party waiting for us *beams-with-joy*) we would like to give you an impression how these figurines can look after spending some time with Birgit and her brushes. And who knows - maybe the tree guy in the middle might look familiar to some...
* * *
And only a little later... in a secret place far, far away but yet quite near to us...
