Hey everyone, Happy new year Sorry for the delay in catching up with everyone Its great to see everyone is getting into the swing of sculpting again, cant wait to see some pictures I even got some sculpting in last week. I was actually feeling really down, I had big plans for Dollworld this year And then started second guessing myself and if Dollworld can ever be big enough that I am not just wasting time and money on it. But then went back to basics and spent some quiet time working on my Corpse Bride dolls. And I must say it felt really good and refreshing. I have a lot of sculpting projects I need to get underway this year, so hopefully will be a lot of pic updates coming from me soon.

;D Well hello everyone.. I've just been all over the board posting on all the different threads, right back to Dec LOL.. seems ages since I've said Hi.. Everyone seems to be moving on with great creative stuff.. not me yet, sadly. Had to drop the kids at Leigh yesterday and made a stop at Matakana which has some lovely art galleries and craft shops.. I came away feeling all inspired to make great things, so I'll keep that momentum going. M had her first experience with the new sewing machine.. she designed and made a pillow for her friends birthday. What a beautiful job she did too. I'll put a photo up tomorrow, she'd love to show you what she made. She wants to make a wheat bag tomorrow.. ... I want to sculpt... Jules you're doing all the right things with Dollworld... ;D Well thats it from me... Hope you're all having fun..

I have been looking through your Pininterest Donna There are some great things there, and some of my favourite artists
I love the babies on the spoons, I have already been trying to think of ways to display my snuggle babes, and things like that could really work: teacups, tiny pot plants..and now will try and see if I can get one on a spoon. Maybe a bigger spoon with a curved under handle?

Happy to hear you got some inspiration from it.. I thought the spoon babies were wonderful too.. what a clever idea.. could even make me consider sculpting a mini babe at some stage.
Thats the only creative activity I've been able to fit in at the moment.. but it is inspirational to find all the fantastic pics and clever ideas around and pin them up. Glad you are enjoying it, I'll keep pinning when I can.
