"Let Us Sew!!"

 I saw a great quote on a T-shirt on Facebook, that inspired me to take a photo of my elves sewing on my old, vintage hand-crank, Singer sewing machine....

And as Erin looked at the babe, he thought it was the most beautiful sight he had ever seen. 
"And yet there is something more about him. So much more!"
​And Erin's heart was filled with love and joy..

A Season for Giving

At this time of year, our thoughts turn to helping those less fortunate than ourselves. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a family and warm home to go to, and some are stuck spending the holidays alone, out on the streets in the cold.... 

Well, Efreet and Erzulie knew there was regularly a man and his dog panhandling out near the mall, and they asked their Mom if they could do something for him. So one evening when they were out Christmas shopping, Efreet brought along an afghan and some warm mittens, and Erzulie took some money out of her piggy bank, and bought a nice warm take-out meal for him...

The two new girls have Iplehouse faceups, while my first ones have custom artist faceups by Charie Wilson, so they are not exactly the same. They aren't going to be 'siblings', but can be 'cousins'.  First the two 'Bono' girls, Holly and Olivia....

"Just Like Us"

Last time we were at the local nursery, they had all their Christmas decorations on sale, and I noticed some little nutcrackers - some 'brown' nutcrackers.  I'd never seen them like that before, and thought my light brown dolls would appreciate nutcrackers like themselves, so bought two...
