Duckie

A few months ago a friend of mine gave me a bath duck...... something I'd have loved to have it as a child. With a little delay of some decades I can enjoy it now.... Have a wonderful day

Something for Me and Luzi

I have so many needles. which I wanted to organize since years - oops - yes, I have to admitt, that sometimes I adjust to chaos, when I'm on the other hand a very tidy person.
Perhaps I haven't done the needle project, because I've had no inspiration. But when I saw the tutorial from Alicia Thommas on sew4home - I knew THAT'S IT!
Perhaps I'll try to make it in mini too.
Luzi saw it and because her great love was Maurice - a black and white male cat - we came to terms. Something that doesn't happen often. Most of the time we have to argue about interior decorations (wallpaper), cat food quality (organic cat food is unacceptable!) or the new sleeping place on top of the clean and just ironed washing pile....

Toy Drums

I made 7 different toy drums.During the wood turning I broke one of the drum sticks, and I'll keep it for myself. The little boy from Penny beated the drum a little bit too strong....

Skipping Ropes

At the next shows I'll have a lot of toys with boxes. When I was a child I loved skipping ropes - and I'll make all the things I loved. In the next few months this will be a little bit of an outing - I fear..... Have a wonderful day

"Nice Witch" Scene

 


And now the rest of it. I need much more animals and I'll add a small table. The cupboard is an interim solution, but in the moment I'm not in the mood to make furnitures. That's a luxury I allow myself - to work as the whim takes me. But the scene looks fine for now and I love to see it, when I go through the corridor. I hope, you like it too.Have a wonderful day

Yoga Doggies Final Place


Last week I promised myself to finish the "Nice Witch Scene" (as far as possible), before I work on more toys...... and I deliver my promises! Yoga doggie has his final place under the "Tree of Life". The powerful illumination can wake the dead - but not Yoga Doggie!Next time I'll show you the rest of the scene. But I have to warn you. The Nice Witch still has no dress. Nevertheless she agreed to be seen in this state. Only her tights are tooooo skinny (she said - - - that's a problem, I have no inkling of), but they will be covered by a cat in her lap.
Have a wonderful Sunday

Suitcase full of Paper Dolls

The last days I had a paper rapture making a lot of paper dolls. When I was a child, I loved them so much - so it was a MUST to make them for my mini children. These are the sheets in a small suitcase. But I made also some cut out paper dolls. You'll see them next timeHave a wonderful day
