Oh it seems like forever since I have had a chance to visit my blog or other people's for that matter. Life has been a little hectic to say the least. I have had a pre Christmas visit from my mum and she bought my niece with her. So in the space of 10 days we did some sight-seeing, some touristy shopping, finished off the Christmas shopping and spent a whole lot of time at the beach swimming and book reading. It has been so hot here that is all we feel like doing but things are slowly getting back to normal, well as normal as they can be 2 days out from the big day. I finished up the last of my shopping today and found myself a pretty dress to wear in the process, all the presents are wrapped and looking pretty under the tree. 
Life is good is this part of the world I hope it is all coming together for you too!

My creative space.........


My creative space..........well inbetween doing lots of cleaning, baking cakes for end of school celebrations, going out for fancy dinners for friends birthday's I have found some time to make some new dollies. All cloth & wool and smily faces. I think they turned out very well and are rather cute! They are based on an old doll pattern just with built in clothes. I am thinking I need to sell them as I don't really need to keep all three so when I get them into my shop I will let you all know!
