holly & hat

At the moment we are preparing o go to the Whitby Goth weekend over Halloween and im madly making vampire, steampunk and goth clothing.  Thank goodness for charity shops for some of it.  Both my daughter and myself are having little top hats, that i am making and Charlotte thought it would be funny to put one on the dog.  I dont think the dog thought it was funny.  Take a look.  Sort of got revenge on Charlotte though as she had not long since crawlled out of bed when the picture was took.  lol.

Christmas garland & welcome

Hope you like this garland, crochet by me, it took a while but i think it was worth it.   The pattern I purchaced from buttercup miniatures, which is an excellent  site if you both like to make your own products as well as buy them already done.  http://www.buttercupminiatures.co.uk/

When i put these on my site they will be by request only though due to them being time consuming and i would need to know the length of the individual fireplace.  they will be priced at £7.00 plus £1.00 p&p so if anyone would like one for Christmas i would need to start making a list.   Sara x:o)

I also have some welcomes to do, only 4 till my givaway.  

Welcome to Linda, Marie 75, Minnie Kitchen, Wrowsell and Patchmolly, hope you visit again.

Look what i've got!!!!!

Had to show you my recent purchases one i got a week a go and the other this morning.  I've been part Christmas shopping with one of each of these items for myself the others for my daughter for Christmas.  Ive been waiting all day for her to go out as she was not at collage today to take the pictures. lol.

The first picture is of two beautiful pendents from Myrate, http://www.myrate.es/ she is a fellow blogger that translates her amazing paintings into various forms of wearable items.

And the second set of pics will certainly make the miniaturists out there jealous, these beautiful hats are of course from Kat the Hat Lady.  The pink one is mine and the black/ goth style is for my daughter.  Kat has made this to order for me and i couldnt wait to open the box, thanks Kat

My photos really dont give any of the items justice.  Sara x:o)

pumpkins

This the second year that we have grown pumpkins on our allotment and we have been very pleased with the results.  Not as many athis year but still done well.  Some will be saved for Halloween and some for pumkin soup. Would be interested if anyone has other recipes, particularly pumpkin pie as this is not an item we eat in the UK.  Sara x :)

What a great surprise

Well had a long day today, did a craft fair and realized this is the wrong venue for minis, never mind a lesson learned and all that!.  Met some lovely people and a few with mini connections.  Came home and thought would have a quick look on my blog before settling down and SURPRISE!!!!!   I recieved a message from DFly Creations, i have won one of her 100 follower givaways, dont know what it is yet but that makes is more fun, will let you know when i get it.  Im a real kid and love parcels.  I know it will be great because all her creations are.  Sara :o)))

Tiara

Noticed the crowns posted which are so sweet and it reminded me i have not shown any of you my mini tiaras.  The tiaras were the item that made me decide to set up as a little business and i feel are one of my signature peices.  So heres some pics, hope you like them.  These are all hand made using wire and tiny beads.  The pictures just show the basic design and colour.  I know have some with roses in but not taken any pics yet.
