The Queen of Hearts Bunny was suppose to make her debut on ebay tonight, however she had a bit of a mishap with her crown. She'll be a 5 day listing on ebay on Tuesday. Remember, to find her, just type in AHA in the search bar,for American Holiday Artists. You'll see the work of many talented artists by doing so.

We continue to be under the reign of the Snow and Ice Queens...

Oh my gosh is it cold and the wind is whipping! The bite in the air reminded me of these photos of Niagara Falls that were taken in 1911. I can't imagine how cold it must have gotten or how long the frigid temps lasted to cause the surface of the falls to actually freeze solid! Hopefully, we'll never, ever see such an event repeated.

A couple new things in the works...

So, this little guy finally got a friend. I was originally going to make this an ornament but to my surprise, the little bear actually works as a tripod and allows the two of them to stand independently...which is awesome. They were listed on ebay tonight.

Waiting for something to hug...

THE SNOW QUEEN

The Snow Queen passed our way last night,
Between the darkness and the light,
And flowers from an enchanted star,
Fell showerlike from her flying car.

And silently through all the hours,
The trees have borne their magic flowers,
And now stand up with dauntless head,
To catch the morning’s gold and red.
(1907 victorian poem)

I'm happy to say that even with starting a second job last week I was still able to get this guy finished. I'm very happy with the way he turned out. He's already listed on Ebay and it's hard to let him go, he really does grow on you.

So, we’re supposed to have a bit of a January thaw, beginning tomorrow and heading into the weekend. I know it’s premature to think of spring blooms but I couldn’t seem to keep myself from posting this vintage print of two lovely ladies of early spring and also imagining their glorious return to my own snow covered garden.

YAY! I finally have a follower that is not related to me or my best friend! Thank you so much Rafael from "My Tiny Studio" blog. Check it out, lots of wonderful artwork from this artist!

Still working on this bunny. Hopefully he'll be ready for ebay on Tues night for a 5 day auction. If not, he'll be listed next weekend. So close and yet, so far.

A couple of new things done for ebay. A little doll with a broken heart and a small unicorn ornament.

I WON! The contest at Celebrate 365 was to name this adorable ornament by David Strand. If your name was chosen you won the ornament. Well, between me and another contestant...we named the ornament. "On Track for 2010". Can't wait to get it. What a great way to start the year. YAY!!!!
