Another productive visit to the thrift store. Found a Hasbro Travel Fun Beach Swimsuit Sindy doll and a lovely smiling baby doll of unknown origin in a beautiful vintage stroller.
For the reading holiday at school, I decorated a podium in the form of a book party.
Today Rostik received handmade gifts from people he is dear to. From me—a юбилейный cake, from Anya—a bookmark with a heartfelt message, and from Masha—a painted personalized mug.
Today I worked on decorating the school entrances with a winter theme. And in the hall, she hung snowflakes made with quilling from toilet paper rolls.
I went to a second-hand store today and found a cute Barbie and a mini Disney Animator’s Little Mermaid. I still couldn’t identify the Barbie; I only found one low-quality promotional photo online, and it’s likely some early Barbie Fashions.
Finally received my last Christmas presents – they are Belatrix Lestrange and Cho Chang.
from Wizarding World Mattel. They are wonderful!
Today I tried out my second gift – an Addi Express knitting machine. In two hours, just by turning a knob, I got such a beautiful set for Mashunya, to match her jacket.
Today my New Year’s gift arrived—Sirius Black Wizarding World Mattel. He’s a handsome man, well-rendered and looks like the original from the movie.
For New Year’s celebration, I baked these Christmas tree-shaped cakes and a syrniki (cheese pancakes) decorated with snowmen.
I quickly made a candy Christmas tree, and then I looked at it closer and realized it turned out in patriotic colors.
