Addition for the Gingerbread House Competition

I'm working on a gingerbread house at work for a competition to be judged at our Christmas Party. I didn't have time to finish it with the rest of the team so decided to make an addition tonight. It was a difficult day at the office and I needed a creative outlet... so this was my outlet.

okay, yes a couple glasses of wine were involved but not during the concept stage... I decided the gingerbread house needed a hot tub and deck. I was originally just going to make some people. But was suddenly inspired. SO my elves are on the deck, in their hot tub with some evergreens around them singing Christmas Carols... Fa la la la la la la la la!
I hope I get a picture of it out of the box and attached to the house tomorrow! Here it's packed up to take to work in the morning.

Travelling Doll Project Published in January's Doll Collector Magazine

I am so excited to see four of my teams dolls (including mine) published in the January issue of Doll Collector Magazine. Doll Collector published the start of the project in their July 2010 issue so this is the conclusion.

The dolls turned out so beautifully! All of them had quite an adventure!
