Happy days

The New Arrival

The New Arrival......
It was very cold
Starlight had sprinkled glitter all over the ground
Some had landed on the toadstools
It covered the new babes head
Giving special meaning to the saying
"Babies come from the stars"
Father and Mother snow were so happy

Seasons greetings to one and all.

Love and Light Marie

The Blue Fairy

The Blue fairy
I made two of these
Funnily enough blue is a color that I find hard to use
I am a warmer person than the coolness of blue
But she is rather pretty, I made her in softer blue hues.

An easy way to make wool wall hangings

Is to use wool place mats as the background
Wool only works best when used along side wool
Needle felt blue wool for the sky
Green for the grass

Add a rainbow
Use thread, to sew on pre made gnomes
Turn the top over and slip a piece of wood in
Add some wool yarn to hang with
And you have it
Easy as one, two, three

Who recognizes the importance of trees

Not accepted

There was a time when  a lot of people  were wanting to know how I do my wool art

I thought I would write a book about it

I had sent my proposals off to lots of editors

Lots of reject letters later

I have decided to give it a rest

One can always self publish

I have enjoyed the experience and hard work of putting a proposal together

I am not un happy about it at all

Some times things are meant to be

Summer Berry Children

Out in my berry patch their appeared a little berry child.

She looked so sweet with her golden hair and her green garden hat.

She loved the summer sun and watching the berries get juicy and ripe.

She had a lovely big berry belly.

When the children came into the garden she smiled at them.
