Snow White Petite Blythe Dress



I just wanted to brag about this super tiny dress that I recently custom made for Attackoframpage via etsy. The dress is only about 2.5 inches in length, the bodice is lined and it has cute little puffy sleeves. I was SO happy with how this turned out, that I may have to make one for myself.

doll eyeball necklace




EmbellishYourself and I recently did a trade on etsy. I received this amazing eyeball necklace for my dolls. I sent her one of my felt skull coats. The eyeball is made by her, in her home lampworking studio. The detail is truly amazing! It was also packaged in an cute little heartshaped metal box. I love doing trades, especially ones where we are both so happy with the results.

The Camp


All last week and this week, we have been fixing up the camp. Wayne built it about 25+ years ago on his father's land (now his youngest brother's land). It was a shame to see it go to waste and as no one else had the intrest or time in fixing it up, we decided to take it on. It sure is alot of work! Replacing the roofing, patching the roof, staining, cleaning up the too thick tiny softwood trees that have grown up, etc. It's a gorgeous spot back there, so quiet and peaceful.

Pickled Beets & Corn Relish


We pickled some beets and made some corn relish this past week. Both are things that we haven't tried before and they both turned out wonderfully. I like to pickle and bottle as many things as I can this time of year, and enjoy them in the winter time to remind me of that summer freshness. I like to use the veggies out of our own garden, if possible. Both the beets and the corn were bought, on sale, at a local veggie/fruit store. I love the colors and the texture that the photos show.
