We'll Have Tea With the Queen

Dear Friends,

The Small Dolls are in a flurry; they'd really better hurry! They're scrubbing and scouring, smiling not scowling, for the Queen Herself is coming to town!

We found a little doll, commemorating the coronation of HRH Elizabeth II, at our favorite thrift store. She'll fit right in with our Small Doll Family, who are excitedly making crumpets out of Sculpey and dusting off their best tea set before her arrival! Of course, since her highness is currently armless, someone else will have to do the pouring, poor thing.


Perhaps we'll have to fashion some prosthetic limbs out of Sculpey, as well!

Till next time,

Love,

Marqueta

A Song to Help the Work Along~

Dear Friends,

Pop over to our "By a Lady" blog for a silly song to help motivate your family to clean today! While unearthing our kitchen last Saturday, we thought it would be fun to make a cleaning parody of "The Polar Express," with a shiny white train who takes unwilling children to visit Mr. Clean at the Spotless Pole. So far, we've only completed one song, but we know that you will be breathlessly waiting for the next installment! ;)






Love,

Marqueta
