Hello blog friends!This is a doll I made a couple years ago after seeing something similiar (though much much better then mine!!) in a magazine. I call her my snow faerie girl.
I'm home today. I've had a funky little headache all day. the weather is rotten and I had a sore throat this morning too.. so I called in. I dont think my supervisor believed me, because she knows how much I hate to drive in crappy weather, but the weather had very little to do with my decision to stay home! I've probably about overdosed on tylenol, but my head still feels like its underwater and my eyes are bugging me. Oh well.. cant spend too much time thinking about feeling crappy.. I've been trying to make the most of my day home and have been working on my dolls!
I was thinking that I should post the names of the girls in the doll swap. I was going to do that last week and never did, but maybe you would like to see who all has joined in the doll making fun!
There are a few who either dont have a blog or I dont have their blog address, but I'll give you what I've got. We really just have the best group of doll makers!
Cindy R
Cindy O. (no blog )
Sheilia (no blog)
and me of course!
so there you have it .. now hopefully all these links work!!
I'm going to go make a cup of tea and get back to work on my dolls now!!
oops... wait a minute..
I forgot I was tagged by Catie of I think I have to tell you a bunch of things about myself and then tag some others to do the same!
Ok.. 5 things your dying to know about me...
1) Im really a princess and was switched at birth! I know this because I can feel it in my soul.. in my bones.. in my... oh never mind!.. I just know it, because I can sense that I'm supposed be living in a castle or mansion, with a maid, a cook, a driver, a gardener and a handsome pool boy!
2) I'm obsessed with tiny things! mostly bears and dolls and teasets! and magazines.. but not tiny magazines! well, and I am also obsessed with making things!
3) If I am around a litter of kittens, I NEED to hold them all at once and breath them and I love them so much they make me cry! (I dont know why!)
4) I can not talk on the phone with out doodling all over something.. I waste a lot of paper at work!
5) My favorite place to be ever, is on the beach! I crave it all summer long.. another princess thing.. I'm supposed to have a beautiful beach house!
OK.... thats that.. now I have to tag some of you.. I choose...
Have a lovely afternoon all you lovely ladies!!
