~ New Dolls, Doll Registry, & my kittens :O)

The lovely Nathalie wanted a doll inspired by the novel The Forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton.  Nathalie named her Delphine.....

Here is my latest Cadabby Pixie called Bella Moo.  She would like a new home, since I chuckle at her freckles.

To re-home her, she can be found here ~ Etsy ~  :O)

I have recently joined the International Art Doll Registry,  presided by Deb Wood.  I recommend joining if you make art dolls - not only can you have your work registered, there is so much to learn, with great tutorials & a fine network of doll artists. I'm hoping I will be able to attend IDEX with them in January 2012. 


Finally, thought I'd show my babies kittens off!  They are growing too fast.  Toblerone & Corky's twisted back legs are perfectly 'normal' now!  yay!  I must admit, I was aporetic, and didn't think the massage, stretching, bandaging (& splinting for Tobelerone) would work, but hell yes, it did!!


6 weeks old.

This little egg was the only survivor following a bad storm.  I put him/er and the nest back in the tree, but the mama did not return :O(

It is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

And when I do get working, Ghost comes and plonks his bum in front of me, so I have to stop for a while :O)
