Maggie Applewhite

Hello Bloggers!

Thanks to all of you who have been wondering if I am doing well because of my long absence! I´m fine, real life just keeps me quite busy. Two weeks ago we spent a week vacation on the Lago di Garda and we had a wonderful time there and...my energy is back!

This weekend I´ve been playing around with my witches shop "Miranda´s Magical Seedlings". I paper-backed the shelf for the potions, finally made a broom...

..which is an absolute MUST HAVE for every decent witch, played around with the furniture...

...and  bits and pieces...

...and made Whoo-Hoo-Apples (very delicious in witchy apple pies AND 100% organic!)..

...to be more attractive for our magical customers. Here´s the first buyer, dear witch 

Maggie Applewhite who lives in the neighborhood.

Don´t worry, she is a really good witch. Most of the time :D

I am so happy how she turned out (more "alive" than my other dolls), although she was really, really ugly until the moment she had her hair and hat on and I almost threw her away :-)

But now I also want to introduce you to someone else:

PIMPF

This little miniature is going to live with us in a few weeks :-))))))

Isn´t he CUTE!!!?

Bye for now,

Sandra

My Pippi

Hi there!

Skiddi, a miniature friend and I are big fans of Pippi Longstocking, so we decided to make a Pippi scenery for Christmas. Here is my Pippi (I know she doesn´t look at all like the wonderful Inger Nielson from the Pippi movies - but I really like how she turned out). Made of Fimo clay and a body from pipe cleaners.

I was very lucky because Skiddi found a picture of this apron somewhere in the net. I only had to print it out on fabric, folded in the fabric´s edges with glue, sewed the pockets on and it was ready :-) As printing on an old hanky fabric worked so well I also printed a digital scrapbooking background on the fabric to use for the  blouse. 

The little rug is a picture from a real quilt I found on pinterest. Not everything works so easy...unfortunately this starving cat was acutally supposed to be a pug dog, lol :O)

Pippi now needs her monkey...wonder with which species I will be ending up when I am ready with it :-)

Hope you like my little doll!

There are some other things I want to show you but it is difficult to find time for blogging. Hopefully this is getting easier in a few weeks.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs, Sandra
