Following an online description, I knitted a cute reindeer with a red nose to hang on the Christmas tree. His name is Rudolph.

Decorated two school halls and a podium in an autumn theme.

I braided a bracelet today from ribbon and large beads. I also made two butterfly hair clips from ribbon and beads.

I learned another interesting technique today – I wove a floral necklace from wire, and filled the petals with nail polish. It turned out very delicate.

Four new Tonner dolls have arrived – a 2004 RTW Carrie, a 2011 Dove DC Stars Kit, a 2006 City Style Kit, and a 2011 Carol Barrie basic.

I dressed up another Tonner doll today – Peggy. Her rather revealing outfit didn’t really fit the overall dress code of the display window. I sewed a sundress for Peggy from lightweight fabric, picked out a hat to match, and made her a beaded necklace.

Made a hyacinth out of beads for my mother, following a pattern from the internet.

Tried Anya’s decoupage kit today. Made a beautiful plate with lilies as a gift for Grandma Zhenya.

I’ve finished my first beaded artwork using a bead embroidery kit and ribbons, almost simultaneously. I also braided a bracelet from beads and seed beads. And Anya and I made a braided paper basket.

Anya has been slipping felt fawn patterns to me for a long time. Finally, Mom got around to it, and we sewed a beautiful Bambi fawn.
