Today I came up with and sewed a fancy dress, cape, petticoat, and hat for Melanie. Such a lady shouldn’t stand on the pier for long without clothes.

For a little daughter of a good acquaintance, I crocheted a parrot rattle. A pretty little bird came out.

To celebrate our 20th anniversary, my husband gave me Basic Melanie from my favorite movie, Gone with the Wind. The doll came to me nude, but with a stand and in the branded box.

I tried to weave a wall decoration in the form of a tree of life from wire and stone beads. A beautiful thank-you gift was made for Masha’s teacher.

I finished another of my long projects—three wall panels with greenery and flowers. They fit into the room’s interior very well. And I also repurposed a plywood boat from a second-hand store into a stylish dollhouse cabinet, adding a couple of wooden shelves.

Summer has arrived, and I just finished my long project—a beaded tree based on an online tutorial that I started back in the fall. Yes, inspiration is a serious thing. It’s bad when it leaves early. But, here it is back, and I quickly finished this long-standing project. I really like the color transition in the leaves of this little tree. And I also settled an owl on it.

Today I finished potting my miniature indoor gardens. I’m very glad that I had the idea to use hydrogel. I like the result, it turned out original.

I accidentally found new Harry Potter dolls from Mattel’s series in the toy store. I’m interested in Draco and this big, handsome guy – Rubeus Hagrid. I bought Hagrid, but I didn’t like Draco’s face; it was too fierce.

Today I finished the evening dress for Emily the Doll by Tonner. Lilac suits her very well, judging by Fleur de Lis’ original outfit. I used Alize Foreva metallic threads.

According to Kasatka’s description, I crocheted a sailor dress in the colors of the Dutch flag for my pouf.
