Things will slow down a bit soon I hope. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The V&A Back Room collection. It has taken me months to put together just the right kind of lace ...

Sunday, July 26, 2015. Another piece to the outfit. The accessories belt. It holds everything one could need to create that futuristic thing-a-ma-jig. lol.

Friday, May 15, 2015. Calling all Eugenia Lane dolls. A UFDC conference doll from the 80's {I think? However, choosing a dress with long sleeves and high neckline I was able to cover all that up. She is still standing and looks beautiful in her green walking gown. This is steel Magnolias, and although simple, I think it really shows off the doll. Last but not least, do you have a Eugenia Lane Doll still residing in a box, undressed? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is made up from a kit by Alice ...

The Keltic Knot Railway: June 2011
http://thekelticknotrailway.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
The Keltic Knot Railway. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. And now there are fish! I can't believe how truly generous some people are. I have been pushing myself way beyond any sane limits trying to finish my Koi pond, as someone very generously offered me some fish for my pond. Today we transferred them from in town out to my place. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. I never thought I'd make it! Sunday, June 19, 2011. And the last of the long haul. That's a lot of rock, and I am so glad it's done. Thursday, June 16, 2011.

The Keltic Knot Railway. Saturday, August 30, 2014. There is one wall left to do on the outside of the castle, and then it will be complete also. When most people think castle they think great gray stone walls and portals, arrow slits etc. Well, this castle is nothing like that, but it's still a castle. More unusual then most but still very creative. This is the side not finished yet. The end of the castle. The turret on the other end corner. This is the inside open end. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
