Well. I'm still working on granny's angel. Here's a quick pic of what I got so far.....I think she's a keeper...

I have to work on her wings and dress and her little bird. all in all I like her. I'm hoping to get her finished this week. What do you think?

I did however finish a new bird and a stinker.....


They both are on etsy right now. :)
Have a great Wednesday!

Have been listed on etsy. I'm two days ahead this year! Self high five! LOL The last thing I have to do is make my Granny (Carolyn) an angel for Christmas. I always make her something special as one of her gifts. This could be a little overwhelming I haven't done a doll like her in a couple of years. So it might be interesting. Giggle.

 Have a great week!
XOXO

Well, Here's the first one..I started it over the weekend in the midst of him targeting all my found treasures. An glass flour canister. I think it turned out just the cutest. What do you think? He is listed on etsy.....and is one of kind.

Well off to make some Christmas kitties :)

Imagine this jar filled with candy canes or or favorite cookies.

close up of face...so sweet....just a ball of fun

I know who loves Mondays? Well this week I do. My husband was on a winter clean out of Crystal's goodies kick.....Ugh, So now to save my collection of found goodies I must begin those projects. So be on the lookout for these. I'm working on two right now.

But in the mean time I just finished the cutest Christmas tree! I just love him. ♥

I'm also making him with jute cord garland for a more country look. I'll be starting new Valentines and Spring goodies and working on some new birds....in the upcoming weeks. Busy Busy Busy!  

I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! ♥

Gilligan's that is..... Finally we are back on line! My computer went caaput on Saturday. :( But all is well now. While I couldn't surf the net.....I worked on some new cuties. I must say my favorites are Mac and Darren. But I love them all. They are going to be on etsy later this evening. Here's a sneek peek....

It's a chilly start to November! Before you know it will be Christmas. I've been busy the last few days working on Christmas goodies. I have lots still to do! I haven't forgotten about Thanksgiving and harvest goodies. I have a few new items coming out this week. I hope you'll take a peek at them on my etsy shoppe. I might be listing a few goodies on ebay also.  Have a wonderful weekend!

Have a spooky day!!

As most know my grandmother Norma Caruthers passed away Friday. I wanted to take a moment and thank you for all your well wishes. Thank you! It means the world to me that you would take the time out of your day to see that mine was a little brighter.


I also wanted to give my thoughts and prayers to all those affected by the storms! I hope this finds you all safe! My love to all my dear friends... you are in my thoughts tonight! Love and hugs!

I've been hard at work designing new goodies for upcoming holidays. This week I should have a head start on some new finished dolls. :)
Here's what I've come up with so far.....

                                           Snow S. Flake (smaller version also available in my etsy shop)

Have a great week!
:)

Well, the dog days of summer have ended and the cool breeze of fall is here! Thank goodness! I was tired of the heat this year...I'm so ready for snuggling up with a quilt and sipping some hot chocolate!

I've been pretty busy over the last few days with orders and finishing up the last few goodies for this years fall items. Oct. 10th will be my last day to push out a few new goodies that popped into my head at the last moment. Next year I think I'll start in June making all the fall items!

I do have a head start on  Christmas 2012 and winter 2013. I have a couple of cuties for Valentines day...I know February right....Sometimes the ideas come at the oddest times.  I can't wait for these new dolls.

Have a great weekend!
I'm off to finish a snowman or two, and a pumpkin man......

I'm always looking for new fabrics to create my little goodies from....I spent the weekend doing some trial runs on a new fabric...and I'm in love with look and feel of my dolls, I did a old design and a new one and I can only say awesome. I love it...I really hope you do to. Also it is a lot easier for me to work with which means lot's more new goodies and designs. I worked on few yesterday and I'm finishing them up tonight. In recent months I've noticed the quality of the warm and natural has gone down hill. :( I haven't been able to buy any in months now. It was so thin last time I went to Jo-Ann's I touched it and put a hole in it. Not good for what I use it for. This fabric is bit more expensive and a higher quality. So I don't mind paying more if it means I'm not going to waste much of it. (mess ups, blow outs.. There is nothing like stuffing everything just for it to get a hole when you are making divots for the eyes and watch your daughter cut the head off to get the stuffing out!(my daughters favorite thing to do)!)  Warm and natural stretches really bad and this new fabric let's me mold them more like a little piece of clay but with fabric and stuffing. And painting them is going to show more of my skills because u have to be right on the mark with this fabric. I'm so excited!  I hope you are ready for a bunch of new designs because I have a lot for Christmas and the new birdies are flying in!

:)
I hope to have pictures later tonight.
Hugs! Crystal

working on a jar of frogs..LOL I also finished up a new frog witch and started a new jol bobble head...I just need to put him together..first on the agenda for tomorrow...The rest of my day is up in the air.  I think I might just sit outside on the porch and enjoy my iced tea and watch the cars go by! Sounds like a plan...

Well it's that time of year to start some great fall items. I just love creating for Halloween. It makes me so happy! Here's some new designs that are available in my etsy shop. I hope they make you smile... :)

JOL Bobber

Wicked frog

Bat

For these little goodies visit my Etsy Shoppe.....And while your there visit the OFG Team artists. Type OFG TEAM in the search bar for more fabulous Halloween goodies.

Just a quick post...... I got some new ornaments in my etsy shoppe today.....and I'm working on more...Here's a peek ...

Well, I finished some new goodies over the weekend and got a couple of them listed yesterday. I feel like I'm so behind...Anyways, Ms. Chicken Little made her debut today! She's a little different than my other birds..She has a cute little dress and fabric legs. And for Halloween I finished up Wicked Wanda and her broomstick. I'm really pleased at how she came out and the first of the Christmas ornaments. Sam the snowman. (pics coming soon!) :) Look for a large version of Sam coming in September.

Just listed my newest bat! I don't know is it a pumpkin or a bat??? I'm so excited I''m going to be busy today..3 new designs and some New Snowman ornaments! I'm hoping to have them ready by Monday! Fingers crossed!

Have a great weekend!
Hugs, Crystal

growing up I wasn't much of a tattle tale, I left that job up to my little sis Kelly, She was the master of telling on you......But, Since I learned from the master I'm going to tattle on two wonderful shops on etsy from the Old Farmhouse gathering team full of prim goodies... First is....

I've added new goodies today in my Etsy shop! I'm finishing up a couple new birds tonight and starting on another fall doll!

                               
         

Well, atleast this weekend I did. All my new goodies are in one form or another bats. They are all just a little quirky. I also finished up that clown...He was really hard to do since I could only work on him when Paige was assleep. Now he's locked up in a box waiting patiently for some one to adopt him. He'll be listed on Lemon Poppy seeds Halloween Shoppes later today! Here's a little sneaky peek.....

He's a Halloween Clown! I'm not sure of his name yet.....Paige's thought's Creepy little dude. LOL
I think he's adorable!

On to the bat's.....
                                          Clyde is just a ball full of fun!
Kavida is just the cutest little vampire bat. She was so much fun.....but, there will only be this one..she will have a  sister and a couple wicked cousins.
Halloween wouldn't be complete without candy corn! Even little crows eat to much of it! This is what happens when you eat too much!

Have a great day! ♥
