Paper Dolls,.., remember these I always had them when I will little and now I am grown have started playing with them again but this time I am dressing them my way with fabric and lace,ribbons,feathers etc..

This is a Maree doll that I made for the Paper Doll group I am in,it was my 2ND doll and I think it turned out pretty good, don't you,.

I am really enjoying Marie Antoinette and all the beautiful things that go with her and her life;;;

Do you remember some of these pretty dolls that we use to play with. I remember when my mum bought these paper dolls for me and my sister and to this day when I see them in the shop I get this warm funny feeling that comes over me,.

*************************

They have come so far since I was little, now the colours and quality that they are made off is so beautiful and so grown up;;

With so many different dolls to pick from like movie stars, kings,queens,common ladies you can have a ball with them;

Little girls,babies,boys and all there bits and pieces that are so much fun.

Maree in all her glory.,.,

Hope you like looking at these pretty paper dolls and I cant wait to go play with them.

Its such an awful yukky sickness and it can attack anyone at anytime at any age.I am trying to do my part so I have made these lovely bags from bras, the bras are seconds and this is why they are a bit cheaper. I will give a donation to Breast Cancer with every sale,.

These are just 2 of them that I am showing you.

 I am selling them for only $20.00 each.plus postage.

This one is a beautiful deep pink and I have added some pretty black and pink beads, also I have added black lace. This little bag will carry your phone,keys and your money, not just pretty but useful too and helping out a great cause that maybe one day you will know someone that will need the donation that I will make with everyone sold.

This one is so pretty, its a beautiful light mint green with lots of lace and I have added lots of rhinestones to add lots of bling.

This bag will also carry keys,phone and your money. They are quiet large inside being both of them quiet large bras.

Both have lovely handles for you to carry them around.I have spent a lot of time making these and I am very excited to show you all. I made these in memory of my beautiful friends who have passed. Sharon, Shirley and Dawn, I miss you all. RIP..

Happy Autumn everyone,.       

Wow its been so long since I have been here that its Autumn and summer is over, yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hate summer                  

Went over the creek to the next farm

to watch the calves being born it was so amazing, we also watched the little ducklings hatching out of their eggs.I love little baby animals their are so cute,.This is one of the little fellow that was just born.

        

here is Mamma and her babies, she had twins and so did the other cows but 2 of them died at birth.

here are the little ducklings some were hatching out of their eggs while being put into the box.They are so cute and so yellow.The farm has many animals and we often go there for a chat or to learn something. The people who own it are so lovely and have lived and been farmers forever, their have heaps of kids and grand kids.

I always find something new out and how to do so much stuff for my farm.

Love Autumn,love all the colours and the trees the way their lose their leaves and the best part is the sun isn't so hot.
Then comes winter yahhhhhhh.
please enjoy and dont let the bed bugs bite,. love yah Glenda,..  xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

One for the girls :
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my shape to keep.
Please no wrinkles, Please no bags
Please lift my butt before it sags
Please no age spots, Please no gray
As for my belly, Please take it away.
Keep me healthy, Keep me young,
And thank you Lord, For all you've done                                                                                             

isn't this cool, if only,,,, goodnight and dont forget my blog giveaway,. love yah Glenda   xoxoxoxoxoxoo
