    Oh my I am glad I waited to order until the last minute!! I LOVE HER!!! Thanks Em for finding Gretchen, she brings so many fantastic things to the bella line.

  16. ChichiBoulie says:

    I’m so glad you all like Beatrice.

    Could I ask you (pretty please) to have a look at my blog. I’m holding an auction for charity and I’m offering an original watercolour (commissioned piece even…just think, it could be your very own fairy!) to the winner. All proceeds will go to the charity.

    If you could have a peek and spread the word on your blogs if possible, I would be very grateful.

    Giving back is something I’ve wanted to do for a while and something I will explain on my blog soon. I think I have finally found a way to do it.

    Thank you all for your support and thank you Em for helping me out!

  17. ChichiBoulie says:

    I’m so glad you all like Beatrice. Hopefully her friends will come out to play soon!

    Could I ask you all to have a peek at my blog (pretty please) as I’m holding an auction for charity. The winner gets an original Chichiboulie painted-just-for-them, totally-new, never-seen-before, thought-up-by-you (just think, you could have a fairy of your own…) watercolour.

    Even if you’re not interested, if you could blog about it to help spread the word that would be fabulous!

    Many thanks to all of you and to you Em, a special thank you for helping me out!
