Only four more moons and it's B day!!!

And only four more days to enter my Birthday GiveAway!

Thank you for your kind comments about what I make... :-) I just went outside on the deck, (not raining right now), and got inspired looking at the lake below and the beautiful winter light reflecting onto it... Nature is just so awesome! I am making a lovely felt French tote and a felt Snow Queen, (a favorite story to us and the kids never get bored), so I thought I would make Snow Queen come to life! I should get going as the cherubs will be back from school very soon and I am cooking and, oh, yes, there is swimming lessons, etc, etc...

King Winter...

King Winter dwells in the North;

Far away in the Frozen Zone,

In a palace of snow he holds his court,

And sits on an icy throne.

He has cushions of course: his Queen

Made them out of her wedding gown.

Stuffing them well with snowflakes fine,

And soft as eiderdown.


Here he is, at last, ready for some one's Winter Seasonal table... I will be listing King Winter in the shop in the next day or so... I am also planning to make some little Winter people to hopefully accompanied his majesty to its new home...

Tomorrow is a very special day... Our beautiful twins Mackenzie and Emmanuelle are turning 7 years old! Some very special fairies are coming tonight! At the crack of dawn tomorrow morning, the cherubs will run outside the house, half dressed, into our massive garden heading straightaway to our special Birthday Tree and found there, leaning against its big trunk, some sweet little offerings left for each of them by the sweet and kind fairies... They will then have a lovely celebration at school, where they will be crowned with a silk crown, wear a silk cape, and received each a beautiful verse by their teacher, so soulful...

Oh my babies... Already seven!

Winter is here!

Autumn good bye,
Autumn good bye,
You may no longer stay.

Autumn good bye,
Autumn good bye,
Winter is on its way!

We had our very first Seasonal Market at our Steiner School yesterday and I along with another parent were in charge of organizing our Class Stall. It was a terrific success and we are very pleased with ourselves... Doing that of course took me away from my work, making me, behind schedule... I have completed his majesty King Winter and finishing his staff tonight. I will post a picture tomorrow...

I would also like to tell you that..., ( I am whispering), it is my birthday this month... I will be celebrating it by giving away one of my creations... Stay tuned for more information to be post it...
