Dolly Mojo ❤️

 I’m really making a conscious effort to regain my dolly Mojo

Sorting out my work space …work rooms ..planning my studio ..getting rid of box’s of fashion dolls I do not want …and handbags LOL 

Declutter ..I have so much stuff ! 

But my fav old vintage girls stay and my Susi 

I’m working on a few commissions I have to get finished …and new Sasha shoes ..at last LOL 

My ankle still hasn’t healed …after 2 months ..I’m seeing a specialist in 2 weeks 

On a plus side ..I’m loosing weight at last and feel great ..if only I could sort this ankle

What a start to the year

 Well a virus before Christmas, then I’d just started back to work 

And I had a bit of an accident  .. I fell 3 weeks ago and it was was a right “pissballer “ 

started physio Friday but they have referred me to a specialist as my foot is still too bruised and swollen to start exercising it , and she suspected I have damaged a tendon , untill they have found out how damaged , I can’t do much , then they want to work on strengthening my joints , to better deal with the arthritis!

I’m still splinted and can’t drive or walk much 

To top it all I had an infection in my jaw , so Thursday dentist removed the damaged tooth , she suspected it was damaged in the fall 

On a plus side I’m feeling so much better now ! I really do ! 

What a start to the year

I’ve not done any work , but am starting this Amazing doll I’m working on for a commissioned peice but it’s a slow pace .. but I will get there x 

Love this time of year 🎄

 First room to get the Christmas treatment…my bed room …Leticia’s Holiday comes out 🎄

I can’t wait to get my tree up now x 

Forgot to add this ..a half day course at The Stratford School of Jewellery

 I do love the piercing saw …after years of being scarred of blades and drills , I can honestly say I love doing this , I had already done some cutting work at the class ..but really enjoyed my Sugar skull class 

Paul’s made me a bench at home , and a soldering station …so now I’m practicing at home ..and getting inspired x 

I even have an order for a skull ! 

The copper sugar skull mandala I added blue Crystal eyes , blue pearls and silk tassels , gave it a coat of wax and I love it , can’t wait to put my tree up with it on x

Elephant is a gift x.

Halven my Hare …he comes with me on my bag …and I love him to bits 

A busy old month 🎄
