Ok so 2010
didn't start quite how I planned ..colds ..cough ..chest infections ..Sinusitis ...Respiratory infection ..and now ...another cold
the joys of working for yourself ..what stress LOL
Im still managing my 3 happy thoughts a day
and manage it ...I do feel blessed ,,I have an amazing husband ,,,who only flinched slightly when I told him I had gone on the wait list for an enchanted doll ..and said he liked my new Mooqla
my kids a re great ..we rarely argue ...in face we have a pretty good laugh ..and my cats ...Winny and Zack are great ..but little Sam ...still smaller than the other 2 ..he is devoted to me ...and I to him ...I dont have favorites ..honest ..but I saved him ..and its like he knows ...wonderful animal
and spring is coming ..I can feel it ...I see it every day in my work room, buds pushing through the soil ..it's coming
I havent felt this creative since ....Years ..watch this space
Miniatura is 2 weeks a way and I have 2 projects ..and 3 boy dolls ...and hopefully the Thistledown will be here
IM GOING WILD with my wigs ..my beautiful tan babies are my inspiration
god forbid if the HK release are tan ...i THINK i WILL GO A LITTLE CRAZY!
I want a tan Momo and tan Cookie Im thinking :)
I have a box of vintage lace ..violet has a collar on at the moment ,,,Miniatura Im after some silk ...I can feel a gown coming on ............hand made silk roses and vintage lace ..with lati tan
I know I should be thinking of my own tinys comming ...I am honest
and at last I have that illusive boot ...for Lati and my large dolls ..yay
yup feeling good !
the babies come out to play again
Curley Tots
Im so inlove with these new girls and their wigs ..and outfits
I feel all creative ! ete has reminded me I have to do my won dolls too ...Ok
( but I am working on my Mystic Lilly first LOL
prices are going up ..as from Monday
new price list is on my web site ..$5.00 for cuts and curls ...and $1.00 on every wig and $1.00 on shipping
prices on my pelst almost doubled in the past 4 years ..and shipping gone up ..so this is my first raise ..hopefully no more for another 5 years :)
Will nothing make this little girl smile ?
this little girl is causing quite a stir ..well her wig is LOL
With a weeks orders already in..Im seriously considering makeing up some specials to list on Etsy ..its going to be very difficult to reproduce this I think
and I have some storm skys that I know is going to be amazing in this style
this week I got my face-up commisions done ..I dont do them vrey oftern ..but Blossom will see her new girl tommorow ..and I re-did Koori ..I love her !
wig orders will go out tommorow and Saturday ..Im pretty much up to date
and 2 custom Zacks also go out this weekend xx
beautiful Kay
my latest acquisition
Little Fee Shiwoo ..its great to have a little fee back in my house ..and I have always adored the Shiwoo sculpt , whether it was a SD or Mini fee ..so of course the little fee is perfect
the year has started out with a bang ..and gone full pelt into the new year
not only have I added 3 more Lati into the fold .
AND new wig colours ..my dolls are flying out ..and Im working 7 days again
wig ordres are up to 3 weeks wait list
dolls I do have good stock of large Mina and Bracken , Brier Rose and Moona ...but the smaller ones are dwindling
Im trying to think of my happy thoughts too
so far ..even though I had that lousy cough ...and we have had so much cold ..and snow !
today is face-up day ..I have set it aside
I have 2 Hujoo , 1 planetdoll ...a Bobobie sprite and Blossoms Chibi
#
Ok ..cup of tea time ..and time to start !
look who is comming to live with me
I do have a little obsession with Lati ...sadly I had to sell most my Lea when I had to pay my cats Vets fee :(
this year ...I have decided I am going to collect the HK ...a little more selective ,and not by repeat sculpts
I should have bought Cookie when I had the chance ..I love this sculpt , but I managed to get her
I also this weekend adopted a HK unicorn Miel ..so Lily has a Sister !
with Lami , coming to live with me
I am hopeing one day to add a tan Byrul and I rather like Momo
and a Coco will one day come and live with me again
and Im dreaming of a tiny tan Belle ..but on the basic body
and a sugar or Choco Lea
at least I will have a Mystic head though ..rather happy about that
and managed to get the HK girls
spring cleaned today ..accounts all done ..so the wig orders should bw going out Tuesday as promised
Lily , is comming home
just had to be done ..no more Lati for me untill the HongKong
I needed this little girl more than air !

Ive been under the weather since Christmas ..but felt this comming on the weekend ...
We are snowed under and to top it all .although I can now get in my car ....I have a chest infection from hell ..so cant get out for a couple of days again
I had to go out to the Dcs this morning ..the conditions and the cold ..slayed me
the Antibiotocs should be working by in a few days ..as long as I can get the car to the front of the post office ..I will be Ok ..so I will be sposting the wigs as soon as I can
its so frustraiting ..I dont feel to bad ...just exhausted ...when Im in the house ..Im not too bad ..just coughing like an old man ..!! and I know through past history I have to be careful
