The yoga kit came just as described with a net carrying case! The beginner dvd is a great intro to yoga even for someone like me with no equilibrium!

What I'm Working On!

I really am working! Here are a few of the many projects that are in progress. I know, I know, I need to stop and finish one thing completely. I can't help myself! I'm even adding a few more touches to the Garden Elf doll that I thought was finished (I deactivated her in my Etsy shop)! Marie Antoinette needs her accessories, a glam girl in the back is waiting for paint, two birds are partially sculpted, another cloth and clay doll still needs more clay , a pile of sugar cookies and a couple of assemblages still only partially complete! Whew, I'm exhausted just looking at all the work ahead of me! I'd better get busy! What are you guys working on??

CSN Again!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day full of love, laughter and plenty of sweets! Now how about a little (or a lot!) shopping from the comfort of your home office desks? I've been asked to do another review for the awesome CSN stores!! Whatever you're looking for you can find it in the over 200 stores! I think I'm in the mood to do a little pamper me shopping. Here are a few things that have caught my eye.

I really like the bright orange color of this tea kettle and it would be perfect for brewing some nice relaxing herbal tea!
Maybe I should try yoga to find inner peace and relaxation. This beginner kit would be a great start.

Or I could really use this foot spa for my tired tootsies after walking on concrete for nine hours a day at work! Ahhh....any of these sound good right now! I'm off to shop, see you at the CSN stores!

10% inspiration, 90% perspiration!

The inspiration: These darling lullaby league girls!

The Doll: A cloth and clay Garden Elf!

A while back I blogged about a pile of doll parts that have been waiting for my muse! After months of perspiration I finally found my muse and finished one! I also have several ideas sketched out for the others!!

The quirky hat and shoes are my favorite parts!

She is available for sale at Monkey Soup Designs on Etsy!
