Lati white were listed and sold out 1st
Lati Yellow are listed NOW

AND BLYTHE will go on tommorow 3rd !

another day ..the SUN is shining !

even better ..Sun is shining ...and COLD NIGHT !
that means the heating is on ..wigs can dry and I can catch up

the last 4 weeks have been pretty crazy ..Petes hosiptal trips ..which feel surreal ...our holiday ..and a blur of wet wigs ..that wont dry

I am hopeful to catch up again this week
and get everything sent

this is a new bed Im working on ...hopefully part of a new range if it works ..for the small elves ..1/12 scale
and I have larger bed ..which were working on for the larger Yo size dolls

all with that elfin feel to them
the bed will be for view at Miniatura ..and who knows I may have some for sale
they will be available in kit form and made up
exiting !


I am going to have to pull out of the Doll and Bear Show at the Motor Cycle Museum as its too close to Pete`s procedure ...

but I will still be exhibiting at Miniatura xx

SEPTEMBER CURLY TOTS AND PLAYING WITH COLOUR a days delay !!! GRRRRR

Some delightful DICK HEAD decided in the early hours decided to vandalise my van
so when I should have been working ..I was making statements to the Police and getting spray paint  of my beloved " Star"


I am beyond angry .we are waiting for a letter  ..my much better half , has to have a biopsy ..we found out last week he has 2 lumps in his  lymph glands ..to say Im stressed ..a little worried  a bit tense ? a bit of an understatement !!
all the cats have come down with a mystery virus 
I had to get one sick cat up to the Vets , which is Chester ...sort him out and .when I should have been working ...I had to get shit loads of paint off my van 
caus one dick head has gone ape with a can of spray paint


well it came off ...now my Van is lovely again ..and the Police have been really nice 
Im not the only person in the area to have their property and possessions vandalised 
this afternoon was spent arranging to have the tyre blown up ..so I can drop the Van closer to the fence and  down the drive ..so the new security camera system I have bought will film the end of the drive and my van 
so if IT HAPPENS AGAIN ...smile your on camera 


So the wigs will be a day late on Etsy 
so Im not happy  a day behind ...and buried under work again  .......











and Im back !


spent a lovely few days ..with friends
and got some great walking gear ..and nic nacks for the Van

we are both so stoked doing her up LOL

I - WE have spent this weekend ..doing the Van ....
and thoroughly enjoyed myself ....just spending time ..not working as in making wigs and stuff ...but with Pete..
dodging the rain showers ..although Sunday was pretty nice

the Van`s interior framework is almost done ..the cookers frame , The seats , bed and toilet has now got its frame
Pete is now on the last leg ..the storage and a sink
which I bought yesterday off Ebay ...a nice small one ...and compromising ..not a full wardrobe ..a small one ..well, we only wear Jeans and T shirts anyway LOL
there will be storage for bedding under the seat ..and jackets can hang on hooks in the cab ..or in the toilet area if they are wet
its so much fun planning everything out

The Star has really opened up now that large board is down
and the metal box ..which we think may have been an old heater box or something .. that's out

we got rid of all the old cushions ...I want new ones ...
so the cab is now clean .. vacuumed and next weekend Im just gonna give her a wipe down try and get some of the age old dust out
hopefully over the bank holiday next week ...Pete will get in the last part of the frame work ...and I can do the cab and the step


..now WIGS ...I have answered all my Etsy emails
my e.mails .. I'm doing Flikr now ..and tomorrow DOA ..my hands are hurting like hell after a day at the PC ..but Im on track

the weather is appalling ..wet ..and warm ..so NOTHING is drying fast ..its lousy ....but Im back and at work

I have several wigs for the 1ST OF SEPTEMBER ETSY update ..so hopefully everyone should get something :)

she lives !

she passed !
and was polished ...new tyre ..and off on holiday we went !
Im still taking a couple of days now , to get the remaining few orders out that I had to leave becasue I RAN OUT OF BAGS ...BOXS TAPE !
everything

I have already found out I sent out the wrong order to 2 people ...so thats got to be sorted
but I feel rested and less stressed

I am still taking a coulpe of days off ..I want to do a little watercolours ..and I have a tiny Catrina ..
Ive been wanting to make one for ages ..so I am !
she may end up a necklace ..or for my dolls house ..not sure yet
File:Catrinas 2.jpg
( day of the dead ) doll Im playing with ..and my 48th SCALE
and I have to get all 4 cats up the Vets for their check ups :)


so now its time for a cup of tea ..and I have to fight my way into my work room ..everything was just thrown in there before I went

Im on Holiday

I have got ALMOST everything out ..Ive run out of Boxs ..and Bags
everything ..but I have almost everything posted
