Dolls in need

Many years ago, when my daughters were young, we used to bring the dolls from the Kindergarten to our home, to spend the summer with us. 

They will always get a bath, their clothes will be mended or sometimes they would get new ones, then a visit to the hairdresser and the doctor. 

We loved having them with us!

Then, one day before school started they would go back to KG, excited and ready to meet the children.

Hope you enjoy the pictures from one of those times.

She was very lucky, she got new hair that summer and she loved it!

Don't forget if your doll ever needs a doctor, 

new clothes, a haircut or new hair

 you can always contact me,

 I love giving all my love and care to dolls in need.

warm wishes, Yolanda.  

Easter Hares

 Easter is here and I've been busy making hares!

This year I’ve worked hard to really make a hare, not a rabbit. Why? Well I love rabbits but I believe a hare is the true image for Easter as their qualities are very different.

  
Did you know that hares and rabbits though from the same family they are different species?

Hares are larger, have longer ears and are more solitary and tougher than rabbits. 
Newborn hares are fully developed at birth, they are furred, with eyes open and are able to fend for themselves within a few hours of their birth.

 They don't build their homes in burrows like rabbits instead they build forms, little nests in the ground.
 Independence is a strong quality of a hare.
 Hares symbolize rebirth, life, regeneration and resurrection.

Look below if you want to read the Easter hare story. 

Happy Easter to you all,

Yolanda

Time to catch up

It has been such a long time since I have come here to share a little of what I am busy with.

 Back in September we moved house and country!

 This means I have now my own atelier and I love it.

At the moment I’m busy making Hares. Easter will be here soon and they need to get ready.

Over the next few days I'll put some pictures with  the projects of the last few months and remember if you are interested in anything you see, please contact me. 

I made this beautiful Angel, just before Christmas for Elsa's birthday. She is called Estrella.

Elsa was born in a dark, starry night that's why Estrella  has a mantle of stars.

Do you know the birthday story? Maybe it's something for me to share on another occasion. 
Best wishes, Yolanda
