Our dear friends, Eddie and Nugget asked on the GPDD if we could show them some photos of our Slave's collection of tiny piggy ornaments so here goes.
First of all there are these four fat piggies.
They are only one inch high and they came from a wonderful online store called the Winking Cavy. Piggies of all colours and breeds could be ordered and the man who made these could even make a model of one's own piggy from a photo. Sadly this store no longer exists.
Here is another trio of little porkers. The middle one was a gift from our pigsitter and the outer ones came from the Winking Cavy. It was hard to get a good photo of those two as they are made of glass, which reflected too much, They are both the same design but one is opaque and one is clear. The middle one is a little bit bigger than the first four and the glass ones are smaller.
Here are some more. The outer pair are Wade whimsies ( people in England might know of these ) and the one in the middle is from a German zoo set. Slave found him in a garden centre one Christmas.
We love these next ones. They are made of wood and are really tiny. Slave found them at the South of England show, where there were many stalls selling all kinds of goodies. There was a man who made Noah's Arks and hordes of different animals to go with them. Slave was amazed to find these piggies amongst the other animals and bought them all. We know that they should go two by two but she could not leave any behind.
These are fridge magnets courtesy of the Winking Cavy. The white one does not show up very well but we could not reach the fridge to take them down.
These last ones are not really ornaments but we thought that Eddie and Nugget would like to see them anyway. Our Slave has a doll's house, for which she makes furniture and other items. This house has a garden full of flowers made from paper and Fimo, which is a modelling clay. The garden had to have piggies in it so Slave made this family and their veggies. They have a little pen and a hutch, of which you can just see a bit of the doors.
We hope that you enjoyed seeing these photos Eddie and Nugget. Does any other pig's Slave have little piggies that we could see. Please send us a photo if you can.
Slave does have a tiny silver piggy, which hangs from a chain and she never, ever takes it off so you will have to imagine it.
We love the pictures of your Slave's collection of piggy ornaments. Wow your slave is so talented that she even knows how to make mini pigs for the doll house garden!!! Cheers Honeydew and Squirly aka the Piggyville Girls
