Toddler / Baby Sasha boot

 I loved making these ❤️❤️❤️

Scales down the design , it was hard on the eyes but Oh I love them 

🎄🎄🎄 December already !

 What a manic couple of weeks the end of November was so I could get all my Christmas orders out for the first week in December , so we could have a couple of days away to Worcester for the Christmas Fair 

I always get so stressed ! But I did it and we had a wonderful couple of days , bought myself pressies … ate good food and came home feeling really creative x

I’m having a couple of weeks off to concentrate on some projects I have in mind …and finish my wobblers 

 boot making resumes in January 

Wobblers Assemble ❤️

 The past couple of weeks I’ve been redoing my wobblers , each one now has an extended neck and the legs were cut 

I heat them up , cut the leg , I  have the wooden rods inside , then I ram aluminium foil in the gap to keep it from closing up 

Then sculpt the hole with apoxy sculpt tinted with gouache

I will add more detail to my Wobbler page here when I get time x

October has been and gone …

 October I paid a visit to Snap and Chat …a wonderful Sasha convention …and I’m sorry to say ..I didn’t take any photographs…and I didn’t have enough painted boots …I’m making a mental note to self ….next year , April ..Newbury ! 

I am going to relax more ….and take photographs…but needless to say I was busy with the run up to it making stock and had a bit of a  “ lightbulb “ moments with the boots 

I’m spending longer and longer doing these now …but I am thoroughly enjoying the challenge and the creative process , and I’m getting finer detail , which opens up a a whole world of possibilities,

I did make a wobbler to sell …but fell in love with little Milo …so I won’t be selling him 

…bought a little Rosie to wobble …and guess what …fell in love with her too …she has a tiny little black spot on her nose …so right now she has Oxy 10 on it ….but her hair is gorgeous…I may give her blue eyes though 

Milo my new Wobbler

 I’ve had my head down working to get things done for the Sasha meet up soon , but in between sewing and painting , something has been on my mind and when I get like that I have to do it , it’s taken days and lots of lumps of apoxy sculpt laying about , and there is paint everywhere.. thank God for silicon gloves ,  but I’m happy with the overall results , this is Milo , not Max , the scruffy little broken baby who I have been working on , he has the most beautiful hair , so much to Carrot and Sprouts joy , he is staying blond . He’s been wobbled using apoxy sculpt stained , I used gouache, which has a really strong pigment , once the apoxy had dried the paint is fixed  his legs cut , as I straighten them , then I rammed the gap solid with tin foil , next time I do it I will take photographs , and his neck slight lengthened also with apoxy . 

The girls are a bit miffed because they are still outnumbered 

But I have promised them both another girl will join them 

Now Carrot and Sprout are both demanding new legs so they can be tall too and so has Moms visiting little girl , eventually I will do them all . 

I’ve also had my suspicions confirmed one leg is indeed longer than the other so I have put a lift in his shorter legs shoe so he can stand 

He’s such a handsome little fellow, mos
