Long time!

its been a long time since I have posted anything. I have not been well this past year but slowly getting back to normal. I have been sorting out my work space a little at a time and getting more organized. Looking at trying some new stuff. Have to wait and see as time goes on. Hope you all are doing well and will post again soon......I will try and not make it as long.😊

Bears

I am back creating bears. Here are a few I have done recently.

Playing with dolls!

I have been making clothes for Ball joined dolls (bjd). They are fairyland dolls. Here are some of what I have been making and selling from my Etsy shop.

It has been a long time since I wrote anything. I have moved and have been making Realpuki bjd doll clothes. i am going to start to creat bears again. Just have to find everything. Will be back soon.

A bear on Ebay!

It has been along time since I have offered a bear for auction. Cinnamon is a realistic style bear.  If you would like to take a peek here is his link.

Button on ebay!

I had posted a polar bear on eBay last week and he didn't go so I relisted him tonight. He has a reserve of $400.00. I learned from Joanne Livingston on how to do the claws and applied them to this bear. he has been with me for awhile before I decided to let him go. He is kind of a prototype but the next one I will change so there is no double neck joint. He doesn't have the needle felted face like the other ones I have been doing.

If you would like to take a peek at Button here is his link

Making a Chirlie Brown tree!

I decided to make a Charlie brown tree. So here goes.........I had some flowers on long stems so I decided to strip them of their flowers to use the stems. I know I would not use the long stems  with the flowers.

Stems are striped and here is a picture to go by.

                         

I had an old wreath that I was going to get rid off so I decided to take the pine ends off for my tree.

Here you can see I taped my stems together.

I have now started to tape on the pine ends to the tree.

 

The branches are all taped on and ready for the floral brown tape. Now if I was to do it again I would first tape every thing with the brown tape. But I did not have any at the time so I used green floral tape. I would of made it easier.

 

Now it is all tape with the brown floral tape and I wired a red Christmas bulb to the one limb.

 

Got to have a stand. So I found some scrap wood hubby had and made my stand.

 

There is my Charlie Brown tree.

 

I didn't have a blue little blanket to wrap around the tree, so I used  a scarf and I see someone has fallen asleep under the tree.

I see a little mouse has brought the little sleepy bear a candy cane!
