Teeny weeny nests
Welcome to my new blog! I must say, I love my new squarespace site. Typepad is great, but for someone like me (ie. neither very tech-savvy nor patient enough to learn), I find squarespace much easier to navigate and it's far more visual when I want to make changes. I found I was always putting off changing or adding to my old blog because I found it confusing and then got frustrated. While I still have a bit more content to add and general snazzing up to do over here, I love the new clean look and I hope you'll enjoy it, too.
But on to the fun stuff. I'm nearing completion of four dolls; I hope to have them finished over the weekend. I've made a couple of tiny, Alexander McQueen-inspired nests to adorn some pretty little heads. 
I made the eggs and nests and felt somewhat insane doing so, but in a good way. I've also made a few more flouncy skirts in the style of the tutus I made for the Black Swan ballerinas. These ones are made from silk organza and I love how they manage to look both froufy and somewhat tattered.
Tata for now...I'll be back with more work in progress photos soon.

Love the bird nests, Sarah! They're going to look quite smashing ~they'll outshine any of those ladies attending Ascot :)
I can't wait to see your newest batch of dolls! I hope to be one of the lucky people to adopt one! Look forward to seeing more posts!
