Indian Silver

.
This is an Indian elephant carved on a silver piece and made into a fridge magnet. Is this cool or what? And awesome carving of the beautiful animal too!
.
Many thanks to Mrs Woods, whom I 'met' through GH, although we are yet to meet face to face!

The Ponies Are In Town

.
Not quite in town, but rather, on the fridge. I basically begged Natasha to spare me these three magnets from her collection. Quite stingy girl, she is.

But I got Minty
And Kimono

Plus Buttercup? That doesn't sound quite right. Honestly, I'm not sure the name of this one!

Paddlewheel of Louisiana

.
The paddle wheel steamboat of of New Orleans - let's go cruising! This is one of the symbols of New Orleans and the old south, the steamboats by the Mississippi River.

By luck, I got in touch with Daniel Alcantara, my primary school friend, thanks to my other friends I met on Facebook. He travels on a ship, and he goes everywhere. He was in the states, in New Orleans when I told him that I collect fridge magnets and he volunteered to buy. I cannot believe my luck!
.


But here they are, oh well, one of those he got me. I'll post more soon!

Ark Bukhara & Mini Arab

.
All the way from Uzbek. En Yusof bought some fridge magents for me, at my request. But refused to take money. So i kinda 'force' him, did't I? Cool way of persuading, right?
.


But I am glad! Bravo Mira! And thanks so much, En Yusof!


These magnets are made out of clay. The one on top shows Ark Bukhara and the one below is of Mini Arab.
