New Design..

As it is nearly the end of 2010 I thought I would be good to update my Blog and give it a make over. I really love Babushka Dolls, I really got excited when I found this background over at shabby blogs.com. Now that I have tissyed up my Blog I really need to update it on a regular basis.
Yesterday I made a few more Babushka dolls and some small birds, they are really cute.
My girls have pinched some of my birds already. I will take some pictures and update them when I get back from the gym this afternoon.

Santa's helper..

It has been so long since I have actually put something up on my blog. I have been so slack in this department. Well this morning I felt like one of Santa's helpers as I made a few toys. I made a couple of owls. I really like the way these have turned out.




I love babushka dolls and when I was buying material for my owls I found a babushka pattern, so I had to buy it. I made two of these, they were really easy to make. I know want to make a few different sizes like a real babushka doll.


There is only 1 more sleep till Santa. My kids are not really excited this year, so it doesn't really feel like Christmas.
I also did some baking today I made some little plum puddings, cherry ripe balls, peppermint balls, caramel balls, meringues, rum balls and white chocolate and macadamia nut cookies. So Santa will get a nice plate of food tonight.
I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Christmas.
