I have been blogging for so many years...several years on Blogger and several years before that on a defunct blogging site. Honestly, I have never taken such a long break. Instead of writing in my own blog, I have been busy visiting other blogs and frittering away my time!
As usual, my friend and I have been exchanging art. Here is an elephant assemblage I gave her for Christmas...made from a jar and a purchased papier mâché elephant. That mushroom under glass was a gift from a friend
In the past few weeks we decided to explore altering thrift store doll and making them into art dolls. I made these two below...from dolls that were not in good condition. They were both under $2 with ratty hair.
Sometimes it is a challenge to think outside the box and envision things in different ways. I am glad I can do this... and love to explore different concepts.
In the fall I started going to the gym 5 times a week and that takes up time, too. I really like it and wish I has started sooner.
Have you done anything new this year? Have you started any projects? Have you made...or broken...resolutions? Are you hibernating? If you are, don't forget to get outdoors a little while every day.
We are expecting snow tomorrow. We had a storm that delivered two feet in October and nothing since but an inch or two here and there. It hasn't felt like winter but it does now!
Have a good weekend, and as always,
enjoy the day!

It feels like spring here...I have to stop and think sometime just what season we are in now. I kinda miss winter though :) The dolls you created are very different and unique. I have so many projects in mind to do but,right now I am mainly crocheting and reading. I spent some time out on my porch today enjoying the sunshine and spring like weather..the mosquitoes were even biting at dusk...and bugs circling the guard light...you might even think it a summers evening. Blessings dear friend..
