I finished two more pumpkins for me to enjoy in my new room,here they are on white painted old wooden candle-holders-in the window.Have you seen my new find, in front of the candle sticks? - the old french ink and pen holder- a beautiful old doll sits now in the ink-bottle hole
The old lovely flowers used on the pumpkins, I once bought from Karla -Karla`s Cottage she has a wonderful Shop.
I found this two vintage candle glasses in a flea market ,this summer, and thought they could look sweet with a little lace and a "french" charm.The beautiful lace, was once wrapped around an order I recieved from dear Rhonda, from http://alittlebitfrench.blogspot.com/
AND NOW TO SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT:
MY NEW FAMILY!!!
Some time ago I saw a wonderful sea horse, reading Rosemary`s blog http://ozmaofodds.blogspot.com/ ---
and at once followed her link to Robin`s fantasi world-and Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/Baggaraggs
Here I fell in love with Ernestine-so totally different from what I create myself.
Isen`t she cute with her pumpkin?
This is Lydia, that I so wonderfully won -because I was number 200 buyer -JUUBIII
And this is Tombs- Robin tells me she might be a Zombie ,lol
-Now someone might think, this bunch are ugly-but I think they are the most adorable,and charming beings-
and love them very much.As a special touch they all comes with a written story-.
With my first order Robin so generously gifted me with one of her sweet birds
And this one -:BOO- I bought ,as I thought they could become friends .
Robin also made this wonderful ribbon and added it to my first buy!
Thankyou so much dear Robin, for adding this new joy to my life-
You are a wonderful artist-and thankyou for your special gifts.
**********************************
I hope you are all well, out there -all over----here it is dark-and the wind blows very loud-
Autumn has surely arrived to Denmark.
I wish you all the very best- and sends you hugs and love.

I'm smiling Dorthe, this post is so sweet. Your doll collection is so wonderful and brings a smile to my face. Your pumpkins are so shabby and unique, I love them! xo Rhonda
OH Dorthe, you're white pumpkins are marvelous. Your new family is so beautiful. I LOvE them. Such incredible faces and that little pumpkin - ahhhh, so adorable. However, back to your creations, I do really think they are so creative. Thanks for stopping by the Honeysuckle Breeze. You are the sweetest! Hugs

And your new family awesome. Really unique and very inspiring work my dear friend.
I hope you have a lovely day Dorthe. xoxo
Good morning, my dear friend! Your pumpkins are so adorable. I love them very much. The candle glasses are beautiful and were a great find. What did your hubby say about three more women in the house, LOL? Your new family looks quite funny and the birdies are cute.
Have a wonderful day, sweetie :-)!
Mange kys og knus og kærlige hilsener,
Julia
I hope the autumn winds are not too cold or fierce as you play with your new family and your cute birds. Enjoy, Dorthe, and hugs
My dearest friend - I see you have made some brand new friends too. I can't stop looking at them! Am I a geek??? I have to say I am becoming very partial to Tombs and little Boo.
I wish Mathilda was there to play with them too!
Your pumpkins look so regal sitting so high on those beautiful candestick
holders and I can see so much rain ralling behind on the windows! Autumn has definitely arrived.
The vintage glasses look special with the burning candles!
Everything is looking just so homely and cosy in your room. Enjoy your day my special friend.
Big love and big hugs,
Suzy xoxoxox
How wonderful to find your blog! I love making dolls. Yours are sweet and the ones you just purchased are adorable as well! It's still warm here in Maryland which we are glad for. Happy stitching and creating!
Hi Dorthe,
I love the new pumpkins you made. They loook so lovely- high above everything on their candle holders. Your new family is very charming. Who dares to call them ugly?? They are sooooo cute.
Have a nice day.
Hugs Yvonne
Dear Dorthe
First I want to thank you for always being such a lovely friend to my blog (and to me!) and your special comments which I never take for granted.
These might be ugly but they are adorable ugly. They look so soft and squishy.
The pumpkins are so beautifully displayed high on the candlesticks, what a beautiful home decor idea.
I love the vintage glasses with lace and charms.
Finally, congratulations on your win - what a beautiful surprise.
Wishes
Lynne
OH MY GOSH--It's all to fabulous for words, Dorthe!! Purely dreamy, my friend!!!

Dorthe...these treasures are delightful - especially your new family. I will save the website and check it out later...my Mom is in from CO, since last Thursday, and we have been running at break-neck speed. Will drop you a line when I get a bit more time, once she goes home (sadly). Have a wonderful day - Tanya
Hello dear Dorthe,
Your pumpkins are so adorable love the adornments you put on them. Those candle holders are so pretty and love what you added to them.Your new family is so cute. I really love Boo! :) Have a wonderful day, my friend.

Hugs Anni
Dear Dorthe, your pumpkins look beautiful in the candlesticks! Also that little French Doll is a lovely find.
I totally understand your love to those unigue ragdolls - they are totally different and adorable of their own way. Ernestine is my favorite, little cutie :-))
Have a great weekend, dear friend and thanks for stopping by my blog
Dorthe, I think your new dolls are very charming. You have a very nice collection started. I really admire your candles, very french chic!
Hope it warms up a bit for you, windy here in the states today too but oh how I do love that first chill in the air.
These little guys are adorable Dorthe, and I love what you've done with your pumpkins-such wonderful creativity!
Hi Sweetie
I am still alive and kicking!
Been working and recouping...
Just stopped by to say hi and to see all your lovely inspiration
Blessings
Rebecca
Sweet Dorthe- so many things I want to say here! I adore the pumpkins you created and the way you have them displayed. They look totally beautiful in your window- just perfect for fall decor.
Your new "family" is so so precious. I can see why you love them so- they are full of personality and fun. They are perfect to display in any season- they make me smile.
Yes- here too- Autumn is here too. Drastic changes in temperatures and crazy weather. We came home from our travels to find a tree down in our yard. I know what is just around the corner--- and I am so NOT ready!!
Love you-
Vicki
Hi dear Dorthe,

Hugs and love,
Marie
Your pumpkins are charming. As for your new family...they are enchanting and the little birds are just super sweet and make me smile. So thoughtful for Robin to include extra special gifts for you purchasing. That is truly customer service that is so lacking in the commercial world these days. Happy Autumn dear Dorthe...
Dear Dorthe,
I love all the new things you have been making, the pumpkins at the window are lovely, as is your dear new family.
Boo the sweet bird is so cute too and you have been busy.
Hope the weather brightens up and you have a lovely weekend

Oh my goodness Dorthe, your new little family is adorable. So perfect for the season. And of course I love your beautiful pumpkins my friend. I always get such enjoyment coming here to your place to see the new things you have been making, and I see from the posts I have missed that your hands have not been idle. I adore every thing you do Dorthe, and so thankful to be able to visit here.
Each time is like a vacation.
hugs from here...
Hello, Dorthe! I am crazy for Ernestine and her pumpkin plus I LOVE the birds Robin made. How sweet! Your pumpkins look so sweet in the window too. I love how you incorporated bits and pieces from friends here. xoxo
As you creations are beautiful directions in your house, I like, your talent is immense!
Beautiful day Dorthe
So cool Dorthe!!! Sorry been away for so long...trying times but thinking of all my blog land friends...
Dorthe,
Love Robins creations! I'll bet you have a 'huge family' of dolls, angels & fairies! I imagine at night when you shut the lights off they all come to life & dance the night away!
I'm so loving the pumpkins! Did I tell you I have 50 stems collected last year from the pumpkin patch? True. I need to make some too. Love your white with the lace & flower embellishments.
Happy weekend my friend.
Lisa
Hi Dorthe,
Wishing you a Happy Weekend!!! and also, I've got the link party going on at the Shabby Chic Girls' Club if you'd like to link up!!

Cindy
I love your new family Dorthe - they are each of them adorable, and so full of character!
And your pumpkins are pretty wonderful too - you have a beautiful display going on and it is a lovely tribute to Fall. And we are having Fall here too; teh days are shorter and it is very cool at night - soon we will light the fireplaces and be cozy!
Kære Dorthe.
Sikken en kær ny familie, du har fået dig! Man bliver helt glad af at se på dem. :-)
Ja, det er godt nok blevet efterår herhjemme. Lidt for meget efter min smag. Jeg kan leve med, at tempereturen bliver koldere, men alt det stormvejr og regnvejr, som vi har haft her ovre i den vestlige del af Danmark, det er simpelthen for meget for mig! Man får jo slet ikke mulighed for at nyde efterårets smukke farver.
Vi krydser fingre for flot vejr i den kommende uge.
Rigtig god søndag til dig fra mig!
Kære Dorthe
Tusind tak for dine søde ord, og det var dejligt at høre om efteråret ude foran dit vindue (jeg savner alle farverne!!). Dine græskar er skønne og så er jeg vild med dine Etsy køb - det er simpelthen så inspirerende hvad man kan finde dér. Og mange tak for besøget på min anden blog, ja du kan tro at det er livsbekræftende at opleve før og efter. Nogle af dem hænger jo (i bogstaveligste forstand) i en tynd tråd når jeg finder dem, og selvom det nogle gange kræver mange ugers koncentreret arbejde, så er det det hele værd.
Tak fordi du hoppede forbi Dorthe, og ha' en rigtig skøn uge forude.
Solskin og knus fra Joan
Oh my gosh...love everything! Never seen pumpkin people. WOW! Fabulous!

Dorthe,
Why I didn't think to comment is just beyond me. THANK you so much for your lovely write up. I appreciate your friendship so much. It has been grand geeting to know you. I love your work. I think we are kindred spirits, acoss the ocean. We like so many of the same things. Thank you so much Dear Dorthe. I appreciate you. HUGS, and lOve, Robin
Hi Dorthe, love the pumpkins and your sweet little art dolls. Thank you for always stopping over and leaving sweet comments on my blog.
Dorthe, I love your pretty pumpkins.
I think they look cool on the candle sticks. You know, not every doll has to be exact and pretty. These three have quite some personality...here in the USA, they call them prims, and I find them charming.
I love the spool birds too.
Still dealing with my very painful upper back, 6 weeks now.
Hope you are doing well and crafting.
Hugs, Evi
I popped over from Robin`s to visit your beautiful blog,so many lovely creations!You & Robin inspire me to get busy & make something to welcome in the fall season,phyllis
Wow, Dorthe!!!!! Your doll collection is gorgeous and this pumpkins are REALLY breathtaking!!!!!!! I love them! Wishes
MARTINA oxo
Dear Dorthe,
Your Halloween home is just charming. I happen to love your little people and don't think they look ugly at all. I also love their special ribbon!
Thank you for your lovely words of support and rejoicing for Jud. You have been there for us all along the way.
Hugs,
Suz
YOur new family is a hoot - so charming - are they lost cousins? Nice pumpkins, don't lose the girls in your pumpkin patch! xox Corrine
Hi Dorthe,
I hope you're having a wonderful, creative day, my friend!!!

Hello Dorthe! Your pumpkins are wonderful, I love them on the candlesticks! I love your new family... I used to make prims and the dolls that I made used to freak my kids out a bit. I used to say that they were so ugly they were cute! I think those are adorable :) t. xoxoxo
Your dolls are amazing! And your blog is beautiful!
Oh Dorthe
your pumpkins and dolls are all AMAZING! you make the neatest dolls - and I am so honored to have one in my home. I love your take with the primitive faces!! Hope you have a wonderful week dear one! xoxo
