colecção de bules - teapot collection

Para os interessados na minha colecção de bules aqui ficam algumas fotografias, tenho mais uns quantos, guardados numa arca, pois não tenho espaço para os ter todos em exposição, principalmente sem apanharem pó.

Some of my friends are interested in my teapot collection, so here are some pictures. I have more but they are stored since I have no more room to show all of them.

Welcome to my new followers

I have to welcome my new followers, I am very happy and I invite all my readers to click in their little photo and visit their blogs, and why not join them as followers too.
I have been very busy at work, as some of you know I am a scientific senior researcher with a PhD in Biotechnology and I work, full time job, in a public research laboratory. Until the 16th of December I am preparing 3 project proposals to a national call, so until then, no time for minis.
I am working even during the week-ends.
A mini hug to everybody

ceramic tiny figures

A few weeks ago I bought these two ceramic figures, in a street market in Lisbon, in the part of antiques (and old stuff). I don´t believe they are really antique, but I like them and they costed me half an euro each.
