Dolls for Challenge on Doll Street

As I said in previous post there were few things happening around.
I entered two dolls for Mayor Challenge at Doll Street Dreamers.


First one is life-size doll that I made few weeks ago.She is huge doll,but as it was my first time to create something like that I'm satisfied with how she turns out.



I had problems with dressing her because of her size (all my clothes were small to her) but eventually everything turns out fine.
For the reference here is a picture of my DH with the doll.


Second doll that I entered for this challenge is last minute doll - "Wait for me,- I want to run for a mayor,-just to put on my other shoe"


Somehow silly doll but I wanted her to look like that.I'm thinking of making her into pattern or a class.
Results from this challenge will be on Friday (can't wait),and you can look at other entries here:

Jurate's visit

Hey these past few days lot of things happened.
Well first thing first,
as she said -Jurate have visited me on Sunday and stayed till next day,when she continued her journey to Greece.
We spend these few hours talking about everything not just dolls.
I took her and Mantas to Kalemegdan-old tower in old part of Belgrade,and for a walk through center of Belgrade.

Here we are :Mantas,Jurate,me and Tamara-my younger daughter.

Jurate and Mantas are simple and kind people.Can you imagine our conversation in English which isn't our native language....well it appears that there are few words that are similar in Serbian and Lithuanian language,so we figured out that we could talk in our native languages,and not to struggle with English.
We laugh a lot and had great time.
Before they left,we agreed that they will visit again on their way home in two weeks.
She looked at my dolls and picked one for her (doll made from Patti's book Creative Cloth Doll Faces),promising to send me one of her dolls (AMF she will make one for me),so who's the lucky girl now?

I pointed her out few places in Serbia that she should visit,and hope that she will be satisfied.

Joke

Few days ago a friend send me this joke so I thought I could share it with you.It made me laugh.

THE UGLY FROG

An older lady was somewhat lonely and decided she needed a pet to keep
her company. So, off to the pet shop she went. She searched and
searched. None of the pets seemed to catch her interest, except this
ugly frog As she walked by the jar he was in, she looked and he winked
at her.
He whispered, "I'M SO LONELY, TOO. BUY ME AND TAKE ME HOME
YOU WON'T EVER BE SORRY."
The old lady figured, what the heck! She hadn't found anything else. So,
she bought the frog. She placed him in the car, on the front seat beside
her.
As she was slowly driving down the road, the frog whispered to her "KISS
ME AND YOU WON'T BE SORRY."
So! The old lady figured, WHAT THE HECK, and kissed the frog.
IMMEDIATELY the frog turned into an absolutely gorgeous, sexy, young,
handsome prince.
THE PRINCE THEN RETURNED THE OLD LADY'S KISS.
SUDDENLY THE OLD LADY FELT HERSELF TRANSFORMING FROM HIS KISS.

NOW CAN YOU GUESS WHAT THE OLD LADY TURNED INTO?

COME ON GUESS!

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH COME ON -- DONT BE A POOP!
SHE TURNED INTO THE FIRST HOLIDAY INN SHE COULD FIND!!!

She's old....... NOT DEAD !!!!!

Doll Street Classes

Few days ago,Molly,from DollStreet,asked me if I want to teach my Good Witch Rose class again,and I accepted it ,of course.
It is white witch what means good and kind one.She collects roses that's how she's got her name - by the roses.
This class already was on Doll Street I was satisfied with it.
Now I'm happy to be able to offer it again.The price will be lower than last time because it is second edition,but all information are here http://www.dollstreetdreamers.com/WhiteWitchAD.htm
Class begins September 27.

Something else happened today,Jurate-great dollmaker from Lithuania (http://www.bluebonnetvillage.com/jurate/gallery1.htm), contacted me today,telling me that she will be on the road with her husband in September,and will pass through Serbia,so I invited her to visit me.
It would be great to meet her,BTW it would be a first time for me to meet any doll maker in person.
In my country nobody else makes dolls (other crafty things maybe but I don't know anybody who did).My only connection with the rest of the doll world is my computer (my dear friend).

Let me see if this works

I'm sending this post via my email just to see if it works.
If it works I will be posting frequently like this,with my internet connection and speed it is the best way.

Again

Me again,just saw my first post and it looks great,now I know I can deal with this.

Hi

Hi this is my first post here.

I'm from Serbia and English is not my native language so if my grammar is wrong -this is the reason.

I saw that almost all my friends have blogs so I decided to make one too.

Now just to figure out how it works and everything will be fine.

Here is a picture of my dolls,old and new ones,just to let you know what is this all about.
