Yesterday, Big Sis and Little Guy were in a crafty mood.
Two colorful pot holders…

I found someone looking through the trunk of Hitty dresses.
She won’t tell me her name.

my craft room…
This new year has brought lots of cleaning and organizing, at least in my craft room.
I am currently sewing table skirts. I’ll share pictures later, until then check out this magazine (Where Women Create). …pretty cool, don’t you think?
…lots more to do, so I better get busy.

my christmas gifts, and happy new year to all!
This year I received some of the most amazing gifts. Hubby and the little ones went above and beyond the call of duty.
Hubby hid these lovely dolls for about two months.
…and a sweet treat from Vanessa’s shop. Now my elves have a tasty home to call their own.
Big Sis and Little Guy painted self-portraits.
Hubby hung them next to my secretary.
…plus, my mother, the practical woman that she is, gifted me a pair of totally comfy, just my style sneakers. …and a sweater to keep me warm. My sweet cousin, surprised me with a gift card to indulge myself at Gail Wilson Designs.

Merry Christmas…
Every year I take the kids to see Santa Clause. This year was no different.
After the pictures with the *Big Red Jolly Guy* were taken, we took a stroll through the Magical Christmas Winter Wonderland at Feeney’s.
MERRY CHRIST-MAS!!!

a friend for the Hittys…
Last week I saw this doll on e-bay. I couldn’t believe my eyes. She was a *buy it now* and such an awesome price. …this Becassine had to be mine!
Now I need to make her an outfit. In the mean time, she’ll share the Hittys’ clothes.

a quiet evening at home…
Well… last night after hubby and the kiddies went out to play basketball, I decided to put my pj’s on. What do to? First I put my feet up on the table…
I looked through my new crochet book.
Hmmm…. Should I open my package from A Fanciful Twist?
Maybe later. A cup of *Hot Chocolate*, that’s what I need to keep me warm…
Hot chocolate, my wee elf package and some ginger snips… that would be a supper treat!
…but unfortunately, the ginger snaps were all gone.
…must make another trip to IKEA.
I took my warm drink and headed to the family room.
I decided to do a little crocheting before opening my wee surprise.
…but before I started working on my granny squares I did a bit of channel surfing. …another house on HGTV? …I wasn’t in the mood.
I checked my DVR shows…
Sortilegio (Mexican soap)…
When the Telenovela was over, I knew it was time to meet my new elf friends.
Their names are: Lottie Grapeseed and Adline Cherry Cake and Baby Speckles. They are such cuties! Don’t you agree?
Now off they go with their other elfin friends.
Then hubby and the little ones where home once again. …safe and sound.
THE END!

special delivery…
The mailman delivered this package on Saturday.
Today is Tuesday and I still haven’t opened it. I’m waiting for the right moment. …I think it might be this evening when I’m home alone, just me and my thoughts …and crocheting …and sewing …and dolls …and fanciful elves.
…I can’t wait to see these lovely creations.
