18" Doll Couch

I've been working on this for awhile. Making the couch was easy but it took time to paint. Plus I had to get the needed materials for the cushions and pillows. I do think it turned out really great. I made this for Grayson and June for their American Girl Dolls. The next project will be the chair to go with the couch.

 

Getting caught up . . . .

I had made a promise to myself that I would keep up to date on my posts but I fell of the wagon quick with that. Oh well, new habits are hard to acquire unless they are bad habits. Those I seem to pick up quick. Lol. I've been busy since my last post. Well I feel like I've been busy as time has just flown by on me. So here's a quick update . . .

After having nice warm weather in the middle of January, Mother Nature dumped 2 feet of snow on us in one storm on January 22nd.

My help getting home Saturday morning after doing snow duty.

Still snowing Saturday morning.

 

Snow was so deep Saturday I almost lost Rosie. 

During the storm it seems that everyone is taking their turn laying by the woodstove.
 

The snow finally stopped on Sunday so Rosie and I went out to play.

 

We finally got plowed out Sunday afternoon.
 

 Snow started melting on Monday.

The temperature rose up into the 50s and then we got a couple of days of rain. Getting home became a challenge.
 

Had to take the long way home.

The February prompt for Ali Edward One Little Word class is Practice. So I picked two things I want to develop into a daily habit - Daily Chores and Daily Creativity.

Practice - Daily Chores

Practice - Daily Creativity

 

Working on the daily practice has done me good. With the help of my new miter sawI was able to finish one of my UFOs - the bench for my bedroom. 

There's a whole lot more that I've been doing but I just wanted to do the highlights.
