Oh hello there!

Long time no see, blog friends!  I got wrapped up in the holidays and busy making dollies that I've kinda neglected this place...but alas, I've thought of you!  I've visited your blogs!  I just haven't posted here!

Things are well.  It's funny how the new year makes you look back on the last.  A year ago, I was in such a dismal state.  I hid it well!  After Christmas, the quiet set in, and I realized that I was having very real issues.  I got help...and I did something!

I remember sitting in Starbucks, right in the heart of New Hope, with a very dear friend who has since moved across the country.  She sat there and told me of her plans, and encouraged me to open a shop!  I told her about my failed endeavor - how I'd tried to open an etsy shop and totally bombed...even in the heart of the Christmas season, nothing had sold!  Not a single thing!  Etsy was a sea in which finding oneself would be too hard...that it wouldn't work for me...

Little did I know that I'd cross paths with another soul over the summer who would plant a seed...a seed to sell dolls!  Well friends, I've learned a lot since making those first few dolls over the summer - which were FAR from my first dolls to begin with, but FAR from where I am now!  I love every one of them.  Who would have thought?!

Anyway, I took a bit of a break after the holidays.  Making for a shop in town, making for etsy, customs, and family gifts...whew!  It's all got me tired out!  But I'm making again, and there are more friends coming to my shop soon!  I hope you'll stop by!
