Merry Christmas!

We decided on a gingerbread church this year, complete with stained glass windows and it turned out pretty well 🙂 It looks great to the kids anyway and that’s the main thing!

I wish you all a beautiful, holy and peaceful Christmas. Happy Birthday to Jesus, King of the World!!

A few pictures from the march

There was a great turn out for the Freedom to be Born March and the sun dazzled down on us as we walked the streets of the city.

Up to the steps of the grand old Parliament House.

There was the usual small (very small) slogan shouting individuals waiting for us on the steps but they were soon drowned out. And I swear I have never placed my rosaries on anyone’s ovaries! That is also to imply that only Catholics stand against abortion which is completely untrue and was evident today.

A big thanks to the Victoria Police for the great job they do, it is really appreciated.

Happy Easter!

Another custom order completed

I really enjoy the challenge of a custom order. Matching requested colours, combining my style with the customer’s style.

This one is for a little girl with big blue eyes. The cute fabric for her dress is from Retro Mummy.
I have to tell you about the hair. The customer requested a “deep honey” colour which was somewhat challenging to find. At The Craft Circle I found this handspun wool that has the most gorgeous
warm, earthy tones of brown and gold. It suits the doll’s warm skin most beautifully.

Alright, enough gushing about dolls!
On the home front I’ve had 2 sick children this week so not a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to next week doing Easter crafts and preparation. Easter is such a special time, I love the closing of Lent, the beautiful Masses of Holy Week and the joyous celebration of Our Lord’s resurrection.

Have a great weekend!
