As a New Year’s gift for my microbiologist friend, I made a lamp in the shape of a cute flask with orbs.
I decorated a whole forest of candy Christmas trees for gifts today. And in this difficult undertaking, my fluffy assistant helped me a lot.
I received a “royal” gift from school – they let me take home a large three-story house for Barbie. We barely managed to load the house into the car and with great difficulty dragged it up to my office on the third floor. Now we need to gradually furnish its interior.
It’s strange that Christmas hasn’t arrived yet, but all the Christmas decorations should be taken down before the children leave for their holidays. Therefore, today I worked very hard, packing everything into boxes and leaving only the winter theme on the podium.
Christmas and New Year holidays are approaching, so I made a series of winter greeting cards for friends and neighbors.
And today my gifts for St. Nicholas arrived – Professor Severus Snape, Cho Chang from the Wizarding World series by Spin Master, a magnificent Barbie Princess Leia from the Star Wars series, and a little Barbie from the Barbie Looks signature #3 series.
Today, my professor Albus Dumbledore was delivered – a very interesting old man. And then in a second-hand store, I luckily found a small Kelly doll in a huge floral ballgown. This Flower Girl is Redhead Kelly. Her dress transformed into a wedding bouquet with a surprise inside. But I only got the doll itself, without the bouquet-shaped stand. Also found a cute Snow White from Hasbro in the little shop, but she was dressed as a fairy. And another stroke of luck—I found Joline Ballerina on roller skates that transform into figure skates. This is a great stroke of luck! But, since I already have three Jolinas in my collection, I’ll give one to my niece Lesya for Christmas.
Today I finished crocheting another amigurumi doll for the Christmas tree. This time I knitted with thicker yarn, and Snowflake turned out to be a little bigger. I think I’ll give it to my colleague for the New Year.
Together with a couple of creative parents, we decorated the school for Christmas today. There was a lot of work, but the result pleased everyone—it turned out beautiful!
Today I bought my first Alex doll by Madame Alexander from a collector. This is Alex “Franklin Mint” Elizabeth Taylor. The doll is very beautiful, it has a very realistic body. The frame is covered in soft vinyl, similar to that used for Paradise dolls. The young lady was dressed in an original outfit – a beautiful white (slightly smoky) ball gown, decorated with flowers and beads. The doll has thick, neatly styled dark brown hair and stunning lilac eyes. Her height and figure are similar to the Tonner dolls, but she feels nicer to the touch. I am very happy that I managed to add this cutie to my collection.
