Giveaway win

Back in February, fellow blogger Kristian of Five Paws Studio, celebrated 100 000 views on her blog with a giveaway. I've been reading her blog for a while and I love her tack and enjoy the mix of posts with real horses, books and show pictures. So of course I entered the giveaway.

I then forgot about it until the results post came up in my blogfeed. I couldn't believe it, my name had been drawn!

The box arrived a while ago and I just, last week, got the chance to pick it up at my fathers house. 

The box was really nicely packaged and I picked things up and opened them as I went along.

I started picking up the two small boxes.

The first one I opened contained the nameplate halter that was the main prize in the giveaway. 

I was absolutely blown away by the details! Stitch markings, working tongue buckles, rolled throat lash and of course the tiny nameplate! I have seen a lot of Kristians tack in pictures but this is the first piece I have seen IRL and it is amazing! I absolutely love it.

The next little box contained something that made me really happy as well.

Mini books! I love everything in miniature so these books were a great gift. I want more and then I need a miniature bookshelf to keep them and then I might need a miniature room to keep the shelf in :)

The books have different heights and different thicknesses just as the real things!

I also got these adorable postcards from Chincoteague.

This beautiful card, also from Chincoteague.

I got these cool facsimile prints of Northern States paper money...

...and Confederate currency. These are really cool and I have some fun ideas of what I can do with them.

I also got these two books which I can't wait to start read as they seem to be the type of books I really enjoy.

Last but not least, Kristian included this beautiful castle necklace. It came in a "The Geeky Cauldron" bag with a card from there as well so I draw the conclusion that the necklace came from there. I checked the store out and it had so many awesome things! I might buy some things from them very soon :)

Even the inside is beautifully decorated and if I wanted to I could put a picture in it.

Thank you so much Kristian for this VERY generous giveaway gift. And thank you for hosting this giveaway!
