I'm Dreaming of a PINK Christmas ?

let me introduce you to our tree , I really like the white ones because they remind me of snow , being that I grew up in Colorado and now live in Georgia  , we don't get as much of it here. However , we did have a white Christmas last year ! The first I have ever seen since I moved here. May we be so lucky this year  :)  I got some "purple" Christmas lights and they are actually pink lol ....  I think I like it
     (we hadn't put the ornaments on yet)  I think it needs some fairies ...



My Husband and Three year old painting  :)




We also made this mini tree tree...



and this is Kashi's  Winter Wonderland he made. Next he wants to make a card for Santa  ( too sweet )




 Our Gingerbread House rules.  ( note the five eyed ginger bread man with half eaten head )  RULES !  even though it fell apart , it was tasty.




Happy Holidays !

Somewhere to Rest your Head

Ok not really because it's decorative and I wouldn't really use it as a pillow , but it sure is purty to look at !  I'm getting so close to having enough items ready to re-open my Esty store , Wewt  !!

Make What You Love


Folk Art Owl Doll...  My Favorite 



Finished this girl today .. I really missed needle felting and was in the mood for it.  I think it is probably more relaxing than any other medium , even though it takes a hours and hours especially if you are felting something big. For one , I can do it anywhere unlike clay that is messy so that I have to be at my desk . Two , I think there something therapeutic about working with the soft and fuzzy animal wool . I am working on a fox like this one as well. I have really been putting some serious thought into re-opening my Etsy store very soon . I really love this doll  ...  I don't know how I am ever going to open a store when I want to keep all my dolls for myself !  ; )  I guess I need to start making two at a time. It's hard enough to find the time for one  : (  I found this little wicker chair at the flea market and I have got this cloth body pattern I made down pat. I like it because I can adjust the size and attach any kind of head to the body , whether it is felted or made of clay , paper mache etc. etc.. I got this nifty sewing box for 40 % off at  Jo-Ann's . Love it !  I can carry my felting stuff in here too  :) 



 I snatched this sucker up so fast .  Like I said , it definitely has Lisa written all over it



She has little owl babies that go in her pockets . Teeny Owl Faces = LOVE
