$4.oo for this bitty doll cradle. I love it. It needs to be painted because its current coat is flaking off everywhere. I am going to figure out how to make some bedding for it. A thick mattress covered in something cute. A pillow and matching blanket too. I wish I was my daughter. She's got everything dude. When I got this yesterday, the store also had another little solid wood doll cradle and a old wooden doll highchair. It kills me to pass these little pretties up, but how many doll beds can one small house hold? If one of you lived near and had a little girl, I'd buy these kinds of things for you. Then I could have the satisfaction of the rescue, getting the cheap deal, not having to leave it at the store, and of giving it to someone who would love it. So, who's moving close? Or maybe I just need an addition built onto my house. Also, in bag related news, I took my fancy homemade bag out in public yesterday for its formal coming out. The springy flower one. It is perfect. I must say though that I was scared to put my stuff in it and take it out. I thought that my seams would start popping out as I walked around and all my stuff would fall everywhere. My bag glory would be abruptly ended and I would start sobbing. Thankfully, that did not happen. My sewing has held up. hallelujah.

The pantless wonder. I like this weird picture I took a few days ago. It’s symbolic (in my eyes anyway). She is the center of my world. She gets almost all of my attention. My hand, showing my wedding ring, symbolizing my marriage to her daddy which- bullseye- produced sweet little her in the circle. She’s sitting in a room of my grandparent’s old house where I once sat as a child, where my biological father once sat. Life. Cyclical. Coming full circle in a way.
Hubby said I was just trying to show off my bling in this pic. Bling honey? Really now.

We finally got the missing sink parts and put the thing together. Cute huh? She even gets a window over her sink. How lucky is this kid? See the fruit on the window sill? Okay so it’s kinda whited out, but that fruit is cool. I just got ‘em at the thrift store. They’re fabric. Homemade and cool. The corn has a peelable husk. The carrot leaves have wire in them and they bend. I like ‘em.
In other news, I’m cancelling my typepad move and the hubby thinks WordPress is the way to go. He says he’ll do all the work for me. Uh-Okay! You do that. Perhaps this weekend?
It’s Thursday and again I have not posted a “corners of my home” photo. I guess that has gone the way of the dinosaurs for me. I’m looking for a replacement weekly themed post now.
That “tutorial” yesterday wore me out. I was blogged out. Didn’t even wanna look at the computer. Yet, here I am now. The kinderbot is asleep and this is one quiet activity I can do at this time of the day.
