Little Mo: An Adorable Teddy!

Hi everybody, I hope you're doing well!

On the 5th of May, this little sweetheart arrived to my house. It was love at first sight when I saw him online, so I immediately decided to adopt him.

I also knew instantly what his name would be: Mo, just Mo, which is derived from 'mohair', which is what his fur is made of.

I totally adore this little bear, so I'm very happy that I got him! Welcome home, Mo!

That's all for now!  Thanks for visiting, and see you next time!

Fun.

As I continue working on the conservatory, I can't help 'playing around' with it.

The joy that I get from taking photos of the structure already in place, and then working on them to create a sense of magic, is truly amazing!

Here's one showing what appears to be a spectre manifesting itself. Can you believe it; the conservatory is not even finished yet, and it has already uninvited residents...

That's all for now!  Thanks for visiting, and see you next time!

Meanwhile, in the conservatory...

The construction of the conservatory is going pretty well. 

As a write these words, I'm working on a wall to put at its back, where the conservatory would be attached to the main building -the house- it there was one.

This wall will have, among other things, a door granting access to the conservatory. In the meantime I'm sharing another photo I too through the glass ceiling. Mind you that the floor is only temporary, as is everything else at this moment.

That's all for now!  Thanks for visiting, and see you next time!

The Conservatory: a place where shadows and memories dwell.

Hi all, I hope you're doing well!

A couple of weeks ago I started working on a new project: the building of an elegant conservatory, which came as a kit by The Dolls House Emporium.

Those familiar with my style will understand that the conservatory will not be a cute and tidy little place to be, but rather a derelict building, where shadows and memories dwell...

Its construction is going pretty well, and in the meantime I'm also working on stuff to put inside when it's done. On the above photo you can see some of the things I finished already. I think they turned out pretty well. This conservatory will totally kick butt when it's done. It's a promise.

That's all for now!  Thanks for visiting, and see you next time!

On Lockdown

It's April, and in the Northern Hemisphere, the sweet rays of the Spring sun are awakening Nature from her winter slumber once again.

Inside the Centennial dolls house, Pebbles the little bear is enjoying the view of the garden, and all that blossoms and blooms in it. But not all is what it seems. It's not safe to go outside.

A dangerous virus, Pebbles was told, was traveling through the entire world, making everyone sick who was unlucky enough to cross its path.

Pebbles was worried, yes, even a bit scared. She was told to stay inside, "on lockdown" they said. And she had to remain there, until the virus blew over. She opened the window a bit, and peered outside. 

"Don't even think of going out," her big brother Oscar said, "there is a pandemic out there!" A pan-what? That word didn't mean anything to her. It made her think of pancakes, and actually she felt a bit hungry.

She thought of her big sister Posy, who lived on a beautiful island, far away. She wondered how Posy would be, and if she also had to stay indoors because of the virus.

"I hope she's alright," thought Pebbles, "I should send her a message, or better still, call her online and see how she's doing. I miss her a lot. Besides, she makes such delicious pancakes!"

 

To everyone out there, please stay safe, and look after each other. One day the virus will be gone, and we'll all be able to play outside again!

Looking after a Pumpkin Head.

For the past few months, I had the privilege to look after a rare, and extremely beautiful 'Pumpkin Head' doll for a dear friend.

She stood on my living room table,  surrounded by a multitude of other small dolls. Until last week her owner came to pick her up, and give her a new home.

And although saying goodbye was a bit hard, as I had grown accustomed to her gracious presence, I know with absolute certainty that  my friend will take great care of her, and make the 'Pumpkin Head' as happy as she can be!  What's more, she promised me to bring her along for a visit next time around!

 So, so long, Pumpkin Head, take care, and until we meet again!

That's all for now, folks, thanks for visiting and see you next time!
