My little workshop ~

I'm working on a tiny army....
I have an order for twelve of these little guys and
since I finally felt a good bit better (THANK YOU LORD!)
it was time to get the assembly line going on these guys.


I'm such a goob, I had to print out my own tutorial!!
It's been awhile since I made one ~




And while I'm sitting at my desk in my still messy studio,
I looked up and saw these precious little bedroom booties that
Lisa gave me....I had to take a photo for you ~
I know you're not supposed to love "stuff"
but I can't help it, I love them!!!
I told Lisa I should turn them into a pair of earrings so
I can keep them with me all the time :)

Do you do that?
Surround yourself with stuff that makes you smile?
Keep those treasures out so you can enjoy them ~








But then I lowered my head and got my hands back to the task at hand....
cranking out a slew of snowmen!

They still need to be painted..plus hats and collars made...



I know I haven't shared what I'm giving away yet
to celebrate the 1500 Posts.....
(enter here if you haven't :)
but I will soon...promise :)

Have a very happy Thursday precious friends!!
hugs and love,
Dawn

I do like to have stuff that makes me smile around me, Dawn. In recent months, it has been pictures of my new granddaughter, especially at the day job. To look up and see her little face helps de-stress me and does make me smile.

Oh yes I do! I love to have my stuff all around me and right where I can see and touch it and enjoy it anytime I want. I have been known to put my brand new shoes on the night stand so I can see them all during the night. OCD? I love my stuff! Your snowpeeps are just too darn cute! Happy creating...

LADY JANE said...

Oh dear Dawn...I so need to feel better and start my little snowmen! Wish you could fly over and we could work on them together! Love the treasures you have shown!

Those little snow heads are the Cutest!!! You love it so, you need to do a doll. I would love to see you make a beautiful doll with a paperclay head dressed up in some of that lace you hoard. You were right, that pic of the slippers is Awesome! I knew you'd love em, even tho they look like they got caught up in the bumper & drug 20 miles. Some baby loved them hard! Lisa
