I'm sure you've seen these before. Known as plant stakes, fairy sticks, fairy wands, I knew I had to try making some as soon as I saw them. While I sincerely doubt there are any fairies in my garden, (or faeries, if you are keeping up with Chris Hall's latest story from Luna's Online), I …
If you're like me... ...you probably have all kinds of folders (one of which might be named "Misc Sewing") on your computer desktop, waiting to be used for that one future blog post. Or maybe they are there so you can find them easily, rather than going through you whole "Pictures" file. Also, if you're …
Or should it be "Third Childhood"? I was going to name this post "Second Childhood, Part 2", but then I realized I've already written that one! So what else makes someone decide they really need a little animal family to make clothes for? I guess it's Second Childhood, Part 3!After a friend whose daughter has …
Who knew you could make dolls out of wooden pegs? Well I must not have, because when I did see these adorable crafts on Pinterest they were an immediate "must try" item for me. I guess peg dolls weren't something I had really thought about before. I love their simplicity and variety, but most of …

And since I have so many 18-inch doll clothes in my sewing room, waiting for the opportunity to become part of "Debra Kay's Online Doll Clothes Emporium" (heretofore …
What could be more fun than babies? The answer is simple: More babies!Which brings me to one of the projects I did with "my girls" over the summer. ("Second Childhood, Part 2" was another fun one, in case you missed it.)You may remember that I showed you all these baby socks awhile back, when I was …
How many of us loved paper dolls as kids? Probably, most of us. But how many of us still have those paper dolls? Or, at least their clothes? Most likely that number would be a bit smaller, dare I say, narrowed down to the same people who would still have this tiny troll doll with no …
So Mom brought home this box... Hi, this is Foster, reporting on our latest online purchase. Mom said I could do this post because after all, I love boxes, and it came in a box.We'll start with the most important part...the BOX! Of course I helped Mom open the box, as I always do. But …
