Gran always told me to try a spoon of honey when I had a dry cough - it was much better than any cough medicine we had ;) I love the outfit today, that worked really well to get the indoors effect! :D

oooo more new shinies? That's neat layering with those mouse socks to make it look like mouse skates! :D Ah, well that would explain why they were needing to get home!

saves the advent calendar photo Thanks :D And that shopping net looks amazing! I wouldn't have the patience to crochet one of those :P

And that's a really neat ornament!! I'd do the same and keep that up all year round, as it looks way too good to only bring out for Christmas :D

Thankies, It wasnt too bad to crochet really. It just took a while since I had to frog it a few times due to mistakes. :) That is typical for me tho. lol

That is what I figure too! Plus, its not too christmasy with those colours. :)

its an adorable ornament :D aww thank you :)

just the dress and those socks. Everything else I had.
Ooh I can bearly stand how cute Paddy looks :D yeah lol plus some of that fog can linger for hours

I love that solution! Honey tastes good too so it works out! There are a lot of beneficial things inside honey, scientifically speaking as well. Thanks for the HA compliment! I got lost in the wardrobe looking for other body mods that might work for the crystal/hearts in the hands ideas.... so far I've found none except the one Raven used the other day.

hugs Yes, she needs to go inside the warm house! I am also secretly waiting for Melody to release that BG I spotted in the wardrobe because it will work perfectly with my cookies baking in the oven HA. I love that she has those socks over the skates - a lot of skates actually will wear stockings or leggings or socks like that over skates!

You totally have patience to be able to knit and crochet, but I get what you mean. Sometimes things are just not down your alley. I am terrible at counted cross stitch I've come to realize. lol I hate counting and keeping track of things like that. I like the freedom of being able to do whatever i want in my designs. Thanks for the compliment! <3

hehe. It's really cute :D haha its not secretly if you tell people ;) But yes lol I wanted to do something like that too -snickers- Zoe says it's mouse skates :D

:D What are you upto? :) Doing a bit more cleaning today, other than that, might fire up my ps4 or switch. xD

You are totally right, a lot of people would say they dont have the patience for crochet or knit. lol Thats cool! I always admired people that can come up with their own designs and be creative like that. :) For me the thing that drives me nuts with crochet and knit is weaving in the loose ends. :P

Yes! weaving in loose ends is the worst that is why my mom hated it and didn't want to teach me! LOL I sometimes use a reference, especially if it is work from a specific fandom, but I like to just draw on a random swirl or pattern and go from there. Or sometimes I'll draw an animal like a fox or red panda) and then use fabric pen to mark it on the clothing item before sewing.

Yes, that is true that i isn't secretly if I tell... BUT NOW I am wearing the cookie making HA (even without the cute melody bg because I could not wait) - I knew it would only be a matter of time. I could hardly wait to wear this tray of cookies. lol Your new HA for today is amazing - I love those colors a lot!

I made a blanket for my cousins baby, I did the math and ended up with somewhere around 700 ends to weave in. I didnt leave them all for when the blanket was done tho.. I did it as I went along which helped keep me somewhat sane. lol

Sounds so cute! :D I would love to see pics if you feel like sharing them. :) I am not good at drawing, but tracing an image I could do. :P

that's about the point when I give up with a crochet project, when it's needed frogging more than once 😊 ;)

well you did a great job seeing as I didn't recognise most of the other items as things you'd used before ;) hehe thanks :d I wanted to use some new things, and Niamh said the hoodie wasn't really her thing :P sits and admires your HA What's the background you've used today? And yeah, it's odd how fog can linger in certain areas, yet clear away quite quickly a little further down the road o.O

and another great HA! I love the wolf behind your HA, that works incredibly well with the lamppost & backgrounds too :D hehe I'm glad it wasn't just me that got lost in the wardrobe looking for that - did you end up with a lot more things on your wishlist afterwards as well? ;)

been doing some scrapbooking, playing my ds and switch. :D have fun with the games :D

I don't see it. For me you've got a girl with a dog in the snow. It's really cute :D Aww thank you :D

thanks lol she's a diva :D Why thank you :D Playing with more shinies ^.^ it and the vest were gifts :D Nimah looks cute today. I see she likes this hoodie :D

hehe you can say that again - I never expected any of my characters to have such a strong sense of fashion :P It works really well :D :D

hehe She knows what she likes :P thanks

How about now? I think you should see version 2 of my girl in the kitchen. I have 3 versions that I am changing between. :D One with a pooch, one with a red panda, and one with a fox. I love your new HA - that new horse bg is so perfect! <3

hugs Thank you for the compliment! I did add a few things but then removed them because I figured it was hopeless.... lol I hate having too many hopeless items on my WL.

OMGosh 700 ends to weave in!? Holy cabooses that is s many. O.O I'll share some pic of things I've sewn fro sure! Beautiful Day Presents Fox shirt 1 Raining Fox shirt Raining Fox shirt 2 Snowman Present - wall hanging eventually Dr Who Present Snow White Present Galactic Shoes painted Present

ooh she looks adorbs :D love the red panda on her shoulder :D thanks :D lol couldn't resist Magnus-Claus :D

I do love it - so darn clever! <3 hugs to Magnus What is that little melody you have on your shoulder?

aww thanks :D Oh that's ooh i see you changed again lol. It's cute :D

Hehe, I am way to stubborn to give up before its done. :P Sometimes it drives me nuts tho. :)

Happy New Years! :D Hope you will have a wonderful time. Thanks for the year that has been, hope 2019 will bring loads of awesome things! ^_^

Sounds perfect, I bet you needed that after being so busy before the holidays. :) Happy New Years dear! :) Thanks for the year that has been. Wish you all the best for the new year, may it bring many wonderful memories, smiles and good times. :)

Happy New Year! :D Hope you too will have a wonderful one, and a fantastic 2019! :D

Oh my! Loving all the things you made! Especially the fox shirts and the jeans! So cute! :D I can see how you enjoy doing it, when you get such fantastic results like these. ^_^

she certainly does :P ooo I like the MagnusClaus look today, that's great use of the new background :D

....and you've also got a great look with that new background! :D :D laughs well I split my CW wishlist into three - buyables, unbuyables and impossible private items :P At least then I know which ones are possible to get, and which I'll have to keep an eye out for a long time before I spot them for sale ;)

hehe stubbornness can be good for that kind of thing ;) I hope your 2019 gets off to a great start! :D Are there many New Year's celebrations round by you, or will it be a quiet night? People round here usually have fireworks around midnight, so I can sit at the window and watch them without needing to be outdoors laughs

Thank you so much! <3 hugs I mostly enjoy making things for others. A lot of these things you saw were unfinished because they were gifts and I wanted to ask the recipient what they wanted to do with it exactly. Now we are in the process of finishing them up. Happy New Year to you too! 🍪I hope your celebrations today are fun and that you have a wonderful new year. <3 Hopefully all good things happen to us all this year.

Oh that Melody, is cute! I totally forgot we had that! Thank you for the compliment! 🍪 Happy New Year!!! <3 I hope you have a wonderful new year and that the bad luck is turned away. hugs Maybe this year will usher in fewer storms and thereby you'll have fewer pains?

🍪 Thank you for the compliment on my HA! ^^ See on the impossible private items Wl I just give up on those. I put them on my WL long enough so I can see them and pretend I own them but then give up. Sometimes when making HA's for contests I'll use the unbuyable privates but not always. Happy New Year!!! <3 I hope you have a lot of luck in all your endeavors this year and that only lovely bright happy things will happen! hugs Who knows, maybe it'll be really great this year and we'll all have great luck all around!

Wait, all this speak of luck and you'd think I really believe in it..... LOL Do I? IDK.

and the cookie-baking HA also looks great! :D I love the layering where the critter by her feet looks like it's reading the books ;) hehe I hope your 2019 gets off to a positive start squishes
