The last few days, with thanks.

I’ve been creating but not posting. The last week has been fairly intense. I received an order for five Wish Dolls, which are made to order. This entailed making armatures, covering the armatures and decorating the dolls with beads, making the small aromatic pillows, and decorating the tea light holders. My daughter enjoys doing that also - polymer clay with glass beads embedded in them. They are at my Etsy store. www.iggyjingles.etsy.com
I have also completed another Dream Star doll, and multi-day project and the last of this particular mosaic pattern fabric. As I look around on line at all the amazing fabrics, I realize that one way that I can do better with my dolls might be to create some fabric designs of my own as the base for my dolls. So part of my “making” has been thinking.
Here at the end of the longest shortest month I have ever experienced, I want to express my immense gratitude to the organizers of Thing-a-day. Thanks to being part of this I was spurred to start a blog, put my crafts on Ebay (where I have sold 4 dolls in a very short space of time), and create an Etsy store (where I have sold out of one kind of doll and had success with others too!) . I did not post every day, but every day was full of making and designing.
I have embraced my new identity as a professional crafting artisan. Truly it has been a remarkable month.
