Merry Christmas!

Today, I have the pleasure of introducing you to my latest Love Bud doll (whom I lovingly refer to as "Lizzie" - "Angelica" just wasn't right, and I couldn't call her "Elizabeth," because it seemed a bit too serious!) 

This happy-go-lucky sweetheart is sporting another original Madison dress creation with matching ballet flats and a fun multi-colored ponytail.  She measures 14 inches tall and has no choking hazard pieces.  She is also stuffed in such a way that she can stand when placed against a wall.  As you can tell from the position of her arms, she is joyful and very excited to meet her new family, hug her new best friend, and find out her new name.  She says she will be so happy with whatever name her new family chooses!

$30

Three adorable Lovebuds waiting for appreciative families!

UPDATE: The first two stuffies in this post are no longer available, but the doll is still available for a discounted price of $5! 

 

 

I decided to try a little experiment with some super cute stuffies I had.  Instead of taking all the time to make the doll itself, I just made the clothing and accessories.  I made them up by myself from scratch, and it was fun!  And much quicker - so I can sell them for less, too.

Have a Lovebud of your own that needs a wardrobe? I will happily custom-fit some clothes for them!

 

"Prissy" Poodle is modeling the latest fashions from PoodleMania for you, and appreciates your interest! All accessories are removable - the skirt is a little tough, I might have made it a little tight, but it will come off. The purse does not open - sorry about that! You can't see it from the picture, but the hat has a blue band going around it. Like the doll, I made all the accessories from scratch.

 

"Boochie" Bear is 11 inches from hat to toe, and ready for work. His hat is removable and very easy to take on and off.

 

This girlie is 13 inches from head to toe.  Her style is not removable.

$7 each! 

Who would NOT like some help in the kitchen?!!

 

These dish scrubbies can be a lot of help in the kitchen! They are washable,come in a set of three, and depending on the dish, should not scratch your dishes. They come in bright colors-brighter than they seem in the picture! They would also make a nice hostess gift.

 

 

 

$7 for a set of three.

Something Different . . .

 

 This is a cute little monster that, as you can see, will sit perfectly on the edge of a table or desk. I made her recently but did her face today. The tassels on her ears may come off, but they will most likely stay on - only if handled very roughly around her ears or if she gets squished in a tight place might they come off.  Little Scamp (as I think of her in my head) is already made and will be available to the first person who claims her for $20. 

 

If she is bought soon enough, I would like to give 3/4 of the purchase price to join with a grownup friend of mine who is giving all her birthday money to pay for some surgeries for kids without parents in China. 

 

My grandma and papa gave me and my sister a camera for Christmas, so I was experimenting today with taking my own pictures!  These are two of the pictures I took of Little Scamp.  :-) 

 

Update 4/12/13: Little Scamp has been purchased!  Thanks to Luke for giving generously and helping me to give more than I expected!  Everybody has been suprising and inspiring me so much!

Look what God has done!
