Working on It...

  I don't know how I got so backed up, but my beloved rugrats do demand 300%...  The seller ended my doll... Oh, hex. Mostly working in my Ebay shop, listing original art, like Dark Shadows...  Waiting for my latest Skelita. Might get the Bootique Hotel sooner than later. Also want a Vermont Teddy Bear ghost, missed him last year. Ron has gotten me three of those, and I love them all: Devil Bear, Vampire Bear, and Irish Bear. Doubt I'll have cloister dolls done for next week. Starve Acre, the novel, is even better than the film. Started that last night, (no sleeping), had to force myself to put it down. Want to finish that at the inn next week. I got a short of Frankie and the gourds. Working on it... Coffee is ready... TTYL... ✨

 

Vermont Teddy Bears

 I have three of these from Ron: the devil and vampire Valentines bears and the Irish bear. They are very nice old-fashioned teddies, well made in America. Nice gifts with lifetime warranties, not going to get that at Hell Mart. 🧸

Vermont Teddy Bears

Tara by Annette Himstedt

Tara, my original Himmie, is all ready for Valentine's in my old baby dress. I'd gotten the bear for Mummy for Valentine's Day, over twenty years ago. Ron got me the vampire bear. I have three of those from him, also the red devil, my favorite, and an Irish bear I put out for Saint Patrick's Day. They are Vermont Teddy Bears, and I highly recommend them, too. I still look for Himstedts. Although I have seven, there are three more I'd like. I've willed Tara to my Best Witch. I got her in the nineties, and recently told her she might get her before I die, but I'm not ready to part with her yet. She's one of my three German girls, and I might be partial. The others I have my eye on are another Italian, (I have Morgana), an Indian, Anila, and the big Hawaiian, Maniloa... The Italian, Minou, was one of the first I saw, along with Tara, here. I've got a porcelain Jan Mclean that resembles her, but I still covet her after all these years.
