Dorothy is my new offering for my PFATT page. If you love her cute face, she is still available.

I woke up early this morning in an empty house. Hubby went back to work and my dearest daughter Geneviève who came to visit went back to Brussels. It was so wonderful having her with us and it was a very painful moment when we had to take her to the airport on tuesday evening. I miss her already and i just can't help crying. I know she won't be happy to read this, she hates tears. Sorry Gen, I can't help it, they just keep pouring down. It is a blessing i have so much work, custom orders to make and more muffinpies to put in my shop. They disappear as soon as i list them. Today i am going to work all day in my studio... For me it is one of the best therapy.
I love you my little Genevieve, hope you made a safe trip home. xoxoxo

Dorothy is sold ♥

going back to the " normal life "

Christmas is finally and sadly over. With a little reluctance, I decided to take the christmas tree down this monday. I always disliked this time of year, where we have to shake ourselves up and go back to the normal life. This christmas was particurlarly special, because my daughter Geneviève ( Visit her Etsy shop ! ) came home for the holidays. She left us last year to study art history in Brussels, Belgium. We had not seen her in more than a whole year. So having her with us was a celebration ! Time flew by so rapidly, she is already gone and the house felt so empty after her departure. I find consolation with the internet. This is such a fabulous invention ! I can see her on a regular basis with the computer cam and talk to her as long as I wish without ruining myself. Parents in years past were not so lucky. Telephone and the postal service was the only communication.
I just opened my Etsy shop yesterday. It was something I wanted to do for quite a while, but I had been so busy 'til now. I have several dolls for sale at the moment, but I have other ideas other than dolls I want to put in my shop. I am so excited about all the projects I have in mind, I just don't know where to start. I guess I will have to write down a wish list and do the things I prefer the most first. I will keep you posted of all the new stuff I will be adding in my shop.
