....A doll review, and a winner.....

....Hello friends....

....Now before i announce the winner of my little 'Crafte nook' giveaway.....oh yay I'm so excited....


....I want to share with you an artist that i think is just wonderful.....i have admired her work for some time now and really wanted you to see her work too.....for me, her designs exude peace and calm, they are gentle and they are kind....

....She is a doll designer, an artist, and a sculptor.....but i get a feeling that maybe making little dolls is her first love....

......I give you.....Maidolls....


....And these are some of her wonderful designs.....



 
....such beautiful faces....


 
....so gentle looking....

.....wonderful wall plaques too....
 
 
...So off course....i just had to have a Maidoll all off my own....
 
 
 
....And here is 'little My'....I bought her from the 'Maidoll etsy shop.....(there is a link further down)....
 
.....She arrived Wednesday morning all wrapped up in lots of bubble wrap.....
 
.....And i absolutely love her....
 
 


 
 
....She made friends with Mabel very quickly......i new they would hit it of....

 
.....She now stands on my mantle piece, where i can see her all the time....

 
.....Melodie, who is the artist who makes these delightful little people can be found HERE, and also HERE.....
 
 
....."Now 'Little My', would you like to do the draw for me?"....
(with a little help from Mr Pixie also)

  6. You have made such a lovely doll Pixie, I love her and is a perfect friend for Mabel. Are you going to make a little boy friend for the girlies? Lynne will be delighted I am sure.

  7. Hello gorgeous Pixie! Sorry I haven't been in touch for such a crazy amount of time. It is sooooo lovely to finally pop by and see what you've been up to. I am loving your new doll and I'm thrilled she has a friend in Mabel!! I'm also loving those new docs!! I have cherry red boots and some fab black watch tartan ones I bought in Scotland many moons ago. I will have to dust them off in anticipation of Winter in a few months. I remember my brother asking if they were key rings because they were so small!

    I hope life is treating you well hon. Keep up all that crafty cleverness. It's always a delight to see your fabulous makes.

    Life here is good. We've had another big earthquake a month ago and my house has had some bad damage. Fingers crossed we don't get another biggie for ages. They are horrid.

    Big congrats to Lynne - your prize couldn't have gone to a nicer person.

    Take care hon and I'll see you again soon.
