The wonderfull buyes

I have to tell you about JoAnnA (Mosshill Studio) ,
This sweet and dear woman that herself suffered from breastcancer, and whoès husbond
has newly been operated for a big tumor in his brain ,twice,- is one of the most talented
Artists I know. I love what she is doing, and as you know I was the very happy winner
of her little Emmily`es dress some week ago.
So when I saw, she offered this so very beautifull collage on Etsy, I had to buy it.
It is now on my wall, here in my little computer corner,where I see it everyday.

And believe me, it is even more wonderfull than shown in the photo.JoAnnA
has e very special hand, with all she is doing, that gives you a feeling of
eternity, long ago beauty, and love.

Is`nt it fantastic ?

And then this dear friend also send me a wonderfull present- lots of her own
created Art Sheets, to use for projects coming up.
Thanks so much dearest JoAnnA, I will enjoy working with them.

--------------------------------------------------------
Theese next pictures is from a new lovely book, from COUNTRY LIVING
"Merry & Bright" -that another of my dear friends
offered on her shop , -and as it looked great, and I
can`t find such things here in DK, I ordered it from her.


It is full of wonderfull pictures showing all kind of beautifull christmas things
to get inspired from.


So thankyou dear Dawn for sending it all the way to me in Denmark.


Well guess it was enough for today, a lot of work is waiting for me, now that my two
sweet grandchildren have returned home to mom and dad again.

I wish all of you a great monday.

Lots og XOXO

Wonderfull special Award

This wonderfull Award that I humble have recieved from SILKE contains
everything beautifull, that I try to honour every day.
Thankyou so very much dear Silke , I`m so honoured for being considered such a friend for you .
And I`m happyly returning it to you, as I can truly say you are such a friend to me too.
As for sending it out in the world , I will do it like that:
To everyone that came to my blog and stayed, to all dear friends, in blogland, and the ones not having a blog, to my loving friends on earth, I`M passing this special Award on to all of you.



"
So today I am planting another tree. The Quercus shumardii or Shumard Oak. It is a handsome large tree with straight axis and broad, rounded open crown. It withstands strong hurricane winds, extreme heat, is tall and straight and just plain beautiful. I have more trees to plant but rest assured those who have virtual trees and acorns planted and distributed in their honor have one common virtue, they are loyal friends regardless of race, creed, political affiliations and geography. Here, I honor womanhood and friendship and there is nothing more wondrous a blessing for anyone than for a friend who came and never left your side.”
Thankyou to all of you
Love and hugs from me,
and a blessed monday.

Angel in Tutsi ? or Cone ?

When sommer was still here, A priest wisited my shop, to ask if I would make
an angel in a cone to use for Advent, when telling the christmas evangelium, for
the children in church. I ofcourse was happy to recieve such an order, and as
December aproaching I started the project.



Here I have finished modeling the face in wooddust, painted it,and giwing her hair


Almost finished in her white dress, and a little cross


Hiding a bit in her brown suede cone, with golden stars




And then taking a full wiew on the world



Her wings are ca. 1/2 meter wide, made in white material, and almost cowered
in feathers, her hands are holding tight to the cone.
I hope the children will love her, when she tells the story
about the birth of Jesus Christ.
Tomorrow my two sweet grandchildren comes all the way from Copenhagen,
to stay here with us for the autumn holliday without their
parents.
I`m loooking very much forward seing them ,and having lots of fun in
the week to come------only I guess blogging is going to rest till next week-end.
So till then I wish everyone a great week.
XOXO Dorthe

Monday with wonderfull things from the postman


Some weeks ago JoAnnA from Mosshill Studio had a give away that everyone who joined her workshop: Emilee`s Dress could participate in.
And the price ,was the little dress she had created to be used to teach this workshop.
I so love JoAnnA`s wonderfull art, so ofcourse I joined,-and with me many others, -so I almost forgot about it.
So recieving a mail from dear JoAnnA one morning telling me I was the winner, almost knocked me off my chair, I just could`nt believe this wonderfull dress was mine.


Just take a look at it, isn`t it precius and wonderfull -

Se this little easel ,she made herself , and the button
covered in old newspaper, the little bird in the old glove...
and the brusches in the glove ,she has used for many art works.
I`m so very happy, and proud to own this beatifull piece JoAnnA,
It is hanging on my wall under a tiny cupboard with small old dolls,and dolls heads inside.
I just love it sweetie, thankyou from my heart.


----ANOTHER GREAT PACKAGE ARRIVED TODAY TOO. -----
Look at these wonderfull Things I ordered from
Pat from The Whyte paper.
These are small bags, beautified with old photoes,stamps,
papers and a little bling,bling.Inside a combination card.

They are all very sweet and I love them.


An then these small tags,-everyone with old stamps,
and papers, all of them genuine,-They are so sweet Pat.
These lillac tiny tags I want to use for christmas
gifts, I know my friends will love them.
But that`s not enough, look what that sweet woman,gave me
extra, just because she had a little trouble with Etsy.........
Wonderfull tags to use as they are, or work with-


This sweet magnet, now sitting on my freeser


another great round tag, and a beautifull ATC
I love all you did Pat .And thanks so very much for your wonderfull gifts.

On top of this I also got an award from
a very new wonderfull blogger, Lisa from Tarnished and Tattered
But as this post has gotten so very long I think I will post about that tomorrow.
Thankyou for today
wishing you all the very best day.

A few pictures from my exibition

One of the last roses bluming in front of the shop,I think it is so gorgeus.

As you maybe read here, i`m having an exibition on our local hospital, where
9 of my dolls now are to see in two big glass montre`s.
I tryed to take some beautifull pictures ,but as I`m not pro with a camera, and as I had so much
ligt behind the one glass montre, they are not realy good,but I guess you will get an idea.

Here are some fairies


living in the wood together, enjoying the compagni, and restfull
autumn.


And in the other glass montre, some creatures
from the sea, are joining together
for a cosy meeting.


Nymphs and mermaids together.

I hope you can see them a bit better, when clicking on the photos.
Hope you are having a wonderfull week-end dear friends.
Thanks so much for lovely comments ,
it alwayes makes me very happy.
Hugs and love
Dorthe
