Last night my daughter, Tina, surprised me with a 'new' Santa for my collection!

He is one of those 'flocked' dancing Santas from the early 60s! This one actually dances  (twirls ) on top of a music box!

 I have  several of these types of early Christmas figures ; one dates back to when my kids were little and we used it in our decorating all through the years. My original one is to the right of my new guy in the center.

MERRY little Santas!!

Thanks, Tina!!

Shadow Shot Sunday-Aug 5, 2012-Gourd birdhouse

This is a gourd birdhouse I made for my daughter, Tina, a few years ago for her birthday!

 ~Sitting on my shadowy window shelf, before I gave it to her~

I think Sunflowers are perfect designs for gourd art and I did several of these !

I wish I could find time to get back into my crafting again!

In the past I was deeply into crafting and my favorite things to make were Christmas figures-especially Santas.

Here are a couple examples of what I liked to do ~ and they just happen to be in Pink!

 :)

 This santa is all original papier mache'! By all original I mean no molds were used in the creating of these figures, so, even though I made a LOT of these, no 2 were ever the same.

 
I made them in different sizes too. This one is just over 12 inches tall. He is one of just a few that I dressed in pink!

  :)  Even in pink, this guy is no sissy! Look at that heavy bag of toys on his back!!

 (I made this one especially for my own home-to use in my rose/pink living room.)

 I signed and dated all that I made and I see this was #3 - in 1991.

 
These next ones are painted gourd santas.

The first one is a medium size hanging santa, which I use at a window with lights all around him. Most of my gourds I painted red but this one is a rose/pink!

The others here are made from small gourds-ornament size!

 :)

Oh!
  I also made some cone and papier mache' trees. I decorated this one with tiny pink roses. It's 12 inches tall!

Pink Saturday-6-24-'12-"Little Girl in Pink"

~~~

~~Visit Beverly for more Pink Saturday posts~~

This is one of my little girl collector dolls.

This little girl is just 13 inches tall;very petite and cute with her curly blonde hair and pink dress!

 She wasn't named so I gave her the name "April."I think this name fits this little springtime baby girl well!

She is a Mother's Day doll-notice the card she is holding, and the bouquet of flowers.

 

She is from  The Ashton Drake Galleries -1997,

 by  doll artist Michelle Girarc-Kassis.

We bought this old fashioned wind -up toy in Alabama.

It's not old but has the look of old toys that I remember from my childhood.

This  little duck rides his bike when you use the big key to wind him up!

Only problem is...the key has somehow been misplaced! 

 :(
