VANILLA doll.........


I really did take a huge leap out of my comfort zone this time and I know this is a long time in coming BUT at long last I finished Vanilla girl, hooray!! A case of work in progress for about the last 4 months! I'm pretty pleased with myself for my first attempt:o)) I did everything on this doll from putting her together, painting and all of the outfit. Was not such an easy job taking the pictures of this one, aarrgghhh!! She had a mind of her own when it came to posing! A sloooowwwww process! - for me anyway - but I got there in the end!! I did actually enjoy doing her and IF there is a next time I would like to improve on the painting and also a few things on the outfit too.

WITCHY the raggy......


 Now for something completely different!! This is Witchy the raggy and would you believe she took me 2 years to finish!! I love the raggies but I don't get too excited when it comes to making them:o)) I must admit I find it very hard sometimes to come out of my comfort zone and do something different - bears rule that's for sure LOL!
Anyway, wishing you all a good weekend.......

New guy VICTOR and Orchids.....

ADOPTED

 New bear on the block who goes by the name of VICTOR and being a pretty bossy bear he reckons he is a handsome fella and looking very smart, hmmmm!! 
Yesterday I took myself off to the local Orchid Nursery as I felt in need of some Orchids as I do love these plants - the colours and the flowers are really something! I have quite a few native ones which grow wild nearby in the Manning Valley - a small flower but a beautiful smell to them. I must have spent a couple of hours at the nursery because I'm like a kid let loose in the candy store:o)) Enjoy the pics I've put up of my Orchids......
