Finally got some Paul MacAlister 1:12 miniatures

This was the last of the 1:12 scale Paul MacAlister miniatures on ebay (see my other posts for more information on Paul MacAlister). I did win two of the auctions (blue chair and bamboo set), but I lost serveral due to my own ineptitude. Waiting to the last minute to snipe an item and tring to cook/feed your children dinner do not equal an ebay winner. D'oh! I forgot to increase my max bid on the mirror, and then completely missed bidding on a few items dealing with a melt down from the 2-yr-old. And I burned the green beans. Sigh. Here are all of the beauties to remember.
