naptime doll

 
 Well the season is upon me, this means i need to get seriously busy getting ready for the holidays, iris has been waiting patiently for the xmas stuff to be brought down form the attic. So I am wishing you all  Happy Holidays! I will be popping in and checking up on blogs but it might be a bit silent on this one for the next few weeks. Take care!

p.s. tiny pillows are now in the shop.

p.p.s. nap-time doll #2 will be in the shop tomorrow

* special note i will only be making five nap-time dolls total (jasmine received the first one) they will all be numbered on the bottom. These are hand embroidered and each one will be embroidered differently.

nap-time doll with her scruffy, gray pet owl that will keep it's eyes open and watch over things so that you can sleep. 

  

 
 

i couldn't come up with a name for this post, too tired to think one up.  having teenagers will sometimes do this to you. i remember when they were young, all under the age of five, i said to jason i can't wait for the day when a whole day goes by and not one of our children cries......still waiting......well sort-of......there have been days where they get through it peacefully, i am thankful for those, very thankful.  from the past when i have laid them down on their little blankets and swaddled them oh so carefully and then strolled them under a thousand trees, to now, sending them off to their rooms to cool down and then later in the same day laughing at their jokes. i love being a mother but it can be tiring and today i am tired. too tired to name this post.

 

 

tiny pillows

remember the scrap garland, well mine got in a big tangled mess (don't ask) and after about an hour of trying to sort it out, i calmly and coolly (yea right) decided to cut it up into pieces. then something good happened. sometimes those decisions we are pushed to the edge to make (this is a bit dramatic i know) open up new possibilities. tiny pillows, i have seen them in the home books that i love looking through. little tiny pillows on beds, i like to think of them as an adult or teenager's substitute for a stuffed animal, yes tiny stuffed pillows. i can't stop making these little guys and naming them (i am blaming the 'naming' part on a sleepless night, convenient right) .  some will be stuffed and put in my shop this week, and the best part is they will have a tiny price.
