Valentine Tins

Do you ever get involved in a project , when you really should be doing something else?  Some call it ADD, it's just the way I work.  Trying to get my dolls body ready for the class next week, but I had to make these Valentines.  A friend gave me these wonderful little tins (cigars come in them) Sooooo. I have been doing all kinds of stuff, but I just love these valentines.

Wishing you all LOVE!

Having a wonderful weekend, tho not ready for it to end.  Working on teddy bears and a doll body for upcoming class.  But nothing is finished because of Pinterest. What an addiction!!!! Very inspiring!  I made the wonderful 2 ingredient fudge posted by cookiesandcups.com

SOOOOOOOO gooooood

2 ingredients

 This is so easy and so good.  I'm  sure I don't want to know the calorie count.

I just love Rednesday! Thanks to Sue at It's A Very Cherry World!

Eye CANDY....yum

Some days (well more than some) I just spend to much time looking and drooling over other blogs and now that darn Pinterest.  I have a million ideas in my head, but instead of creating, I'm dreaming....I know that's where it all begins, so I better get my self off the computer and create.


I am thinking PINK.  My table is covered in pink and projects in the works.  Hopefully soon I can post pics of the completed bears and dolls


I spent Saturday with my wonderful "Stitching Sisters"  My doll club with some of the most talented ladies I have ever known.  My darling friend Kat  of designsbykatleespatterns.blogspot.com
has shared her pattern Gwyneth the Steampunk Elf with us and I have been working on her.  The body is all done and theis was a new technique for me, working with a big wire armature.  Working on the head tonight.....if I get away from this computer.  OK...I'm going.

Good night and pleasant dreams!!!

deep thoughts............aaahhhhhhhhhhhh not so deep but I am amused

I thought I might sit here to stuff bears or dolls.  This will have to be the  first thing  organized

My craft room

Miniature table I built in 1981 with my prize posession, Jo Parker chine in 1" dollhouse scale

Chine Hutch in 1" dollhouse scale.  These are the serving pieces  to go with the china .  Another set of white miniature china is on the 3rd shelf down.

note to self:

I just love u tube.....It's amazing what you can find there.  Love it!!

RED VELVET CAKE POPS/BALLS

 It all started with a red velvet cake.  Then when it's baked you add a half container of frosting and mix to the consistency of playdough.

At this point it really tastes good too.   Take a ice cream/meet ball scoop and make balls.  Freeze x 1 hour and then dip in melted chocolate. YUM.
