Cute Plush Snowman is Finished.

This is Bert and he's a snowman. He's new and in my shop. Yep.

I re-shot the reindeer and cookie people photos so they aren't so boring. Crazy busy! Don't forget about the Big Giveaway starting on my Blog Anniversary on Friday November 12th, 2010.

Gingers and Reindeer Have Arrived!

Gingerbread People, Sugar Cookie People and Red Nosed Reindeer have arrived in the studio. They will be making their way into my etsy shop today. Quick sneak peeks.

 There is a snowman too that I didn't get finished last night and a Santa. All of these designs will be done in mini form for stocking stuffers/ornaments if I have time to crank them out. I hope you have enjoyed seeing my holiday plush dolls!

Sleepless Night and Decision Making.

It was an emotionally draining weekend. I thought I'd have to fly my son home because things aren't going well with him. After a lot of back and forth he's decided to try and stick it out but is grateful that he can come home as a last resort. So...preciously saved money will go to him to help him thru this difficult life experience.

 My Goofy Kid

Meanwhile I took a serious look at all my projects and decided I need to scale way back on what I thought I could get done. I've decided to make just a few gingerbread people, reindeer and snow people in the large plush doll size and more smaller little plush that would be good for stocking stuffers, ornaments and decorations. I really want to make sales and since my designs are a bit odd and different I know they won't appeal to the masses, so I think the smaller ones will do better. I'll continue to make Large Snarky Girl dolls in different designs and smaller ones too. Also Christmas and Holiday Owls...got to have owls! I'm already thinking of designs for Easter and Spring!

Mini Reindeer Plush

I'll also be concentrating more on my stationery business. I took a long break but am back up and taking orders in my Zibbet shop. It will take a huge time commitment and lots of hard work to get that business back to the level it was. I'm slowly getting items loaded there. So if you are looking for gift stickers, address labels, note cards, enclosure cards, gift tags, shipping labels or invitations for any occasion come check me out.

WIP that's slowly coming along.

Gingerbread people, snow people, reindeer, Santa and the Mrs: cut out, laid out and bits and parts sewn. A very long way to go! Thought you'd like another peek.

I had to break out the holiday buffet table!

Sigh! So much and so little time!
