Today we have to send a package to relatives, so I finished the promised second demogorgon for my niece.
I stumbled upon this little Enchantimals Bexie Bear & Bidie at a sale in the store. A cute girl with red hair is a good addition to my collection.
Finished crocheting a horse following the instructions from a book. It turned out huge because I crocheted it from thick velvet instead of thin, as recommended in the book. Moreover, I ran out of thread and was forced to crochet the legs from a different shade. But I really liked the result. I also finished his bridle and saddle. And now Polochka happily poses on it. So, for the Year of the Fire Horse, we have our symbol—the horseman Boriveter, or simply Borya.
Today my gift from my husband for Valentine’s Day arrived. This is a Tonner New York City Ballet Emilie Rehearsal Brunette doll from 2006. I just didn’t notice during the order that the doll is after a failed body transplant. She had problems with her neck joint, so I had to remove the Tonner doll’s head and reattach it to the anchor for the first time in my life. It was very scary, but I did it. Although her body still differs in shade from her scalp, the joints on it are quite loose, and a small crack on her neck and shoulders from the transplant is still noticeable. She isn’t wearing her usual clothes, but I like her because of her sweet face and beautiful, smooth hair.
On the windows of the new group that opened in the gym, I drew Elmer the Elephant from the popular children’s book.
Organized a winter reading week on the stage. And added some hearts for Valentine’s Day too.
Since the supermarket theme for the younger groups continues until the holidays, I have redecorated the children’s hall with a shop theme. Now they have a place where they can enjoy playing shopkeeper and customer.
The school play needed supermarket decorations. Here’s what I came up with.
For my niece Tanechka’s name day, I barely managed to finish crocheting Demogorgon before the movers arrived—a character from her favorite show, Stranger Things.
Купила в сувенирной лавке замка Де Хаар славного маленького рыжего котика, спящего в мягкой лежаночке. A lovely reminder of a fairytale atmosphere, magical lanterns, beautiful music, and a lovely snowy evening.
