OH GOOD GRIEF! ENOUGH ALREADY!


Getting There

A blue cupboard and a white chair, a missing drawer pull, painting, staining, yes, this is fun. You can see the difference in the wall paint color up over the cupboards.
Forgot the "before" picture. This is the best I can do. You can still see the color of the cupboards from before, up top.

Ta daaa.


He did a marvelous job, and as you can see, with a smile.



This chair still needs another coat of paint.

Thanks for the link, Teresa

My $10 chandelier.


The old light fixture went where that hole is. The chandelier will go where you can see that dot on the ceiling.

Wow. What a mess. By now, the window trim is painted , two new drawer handles have been put on, and no, my table is not finished. That's what I will be doing in a few minutes.

WOO HOO Got the head on!


Oh Yea! I got the legs on!




Thanks for the prayers, they're working. It only took me this long to get the legs on! Now on to the head and arms...........I think I can .....I think I can......I think I can........

My Child Doll - I named her Carol Marie
















I hope you would pray for me over this child doll. I really need to see some success and I'm going to be so dissappointed if no one bids on her! Here are a few detail pics showing you her hair, which is real human hair and a pain to root. Her eyes and lips. I hope to have her together later today but even that is quite a challenge. Her head and arms are ball jointed and a bit confusing to me but I'm sure I'll figure it out! LOL! If not someone will have to buy her in pieces! I've been so busy working on her and all the time my stomach has been all knotted up over it. I'm so afraid I'm going to make a mistake and ruin her!





Pictures of her veins and fingernails/toenails











I'm sorry about the little boobie but it's innocent....... :-) I'm so worried about how these pics look on other monitors....can you see the veins ok? They are very light - hopefully!

Curtain Material & American Girl PJs



Here is some pj's that I made for the American Girl dolls. I thought maybe I could start selling these little outfits if the market for the reborns bottoms out or maybe just in addition to the reborns. I am finding it hard to take the time though.
The material is for my upstairs bedroom windows. I hope to have a bit left over to make some nice throw pillows.

Oh dear, what do you think of this hair??




This is that 28 inch toddler baby with the huge head! All done and ready to be put together! Phew!

I didn't have long mohair and so I used what I have on hand......I hope I've left the back long enough so I can pull up little pigtails! What do you think? It's half wet and half dry so it looks a bit strange.....
