SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT!

Every year for christmas I have some orders for Vergin Mary and  the Jesus child!
And also this year- so I thought to make them early, -for my costumers to
have them ready for displaying in real good time!



Here is one , in tones of green- 


with the child securely sleeping in her arms!


And here in blue tones! Both dolls are app.50 cm ( 20inch) high, and very often 
ordered also with Josef, and next year the 3 wise men!!
I hope they will be well recieved, in their new homes!


This is the beauty of nature just now,-the photo taken in a wood near my home!


And here the evening view behind my shop,- some few evenings ago!
Beautiful sunset over The Baltic Sea!!


I have had a beautiful Mothers day- with the most wonderful weather, -the Nightingale 
has arrived on our property, and sings all day and night!!
And my dear husbond made me a lovely breakfast ,and bought me
those beautiful roses!


I hope you all ,also have had a wonderful sunday, I am grateful for 
your sweet and kind comments on my blog, and for your friendships!!
And I send you smiles, with

Hugs and love-
Dorthe

Ja, men Dorte, du bor jo i den smukkeste natur på en meget særpræget ø i Danmark, nyd det selv om du syntes der er langt til alting, og dine madonnadukker er da så søde, og i god tid til jul. knus morkaren.

Oh Dorthe
Your new "Mary and Jesus" dolls are so pretty - you have been busy!

I see your husband spoiled you with a sweet bouquet of red roses to say "I love you".

I enlarged your Baltic sunset photo - what a wonderful vista to look out on.
I also can see you still have a good stack of fire wood left over for next Winter!
I photographed these stacks in France too - it's a very European thing!

Wishing you a happy warm Spring time week dear Dorthe.
Sending hugs from across the seas!

Hello sweetie, what a most beautiful view you have from your shop, wow!
Your Mother and Child dolls are gorgeous and precious dear. I really wouldn't know which one to love best, although green fits best in my home, but the deep blue is so beautiful too. They have such a sweet and peaceful countenance.
I'm happy to hear you had a lovely mothersday. We had a wonderful holiday in the south of our country.
Wishing you a beautiful day. Warm hugs, Wendy

Kære Dorthe.

Hvor er de bedårende.
Ja, det er klart, du skal være ude i god tid med at kreere jule-dukker, for så snart sommeren er slut, begynder de første bestillinger vel at dukke op. :-)
Fint skov-billede. Min skov er også fyldt med anemoner, og jeg har allerede haft en buket med hjemme og pynte.

Knus, Emilie
