the little mushroom dolls

Hi there!
Introducing the new batch of the little mushroom dolls, Miss Little Dottie and Miss Generous Snow. They are both so sweeeet! Miss Little Dottie is on the sweet and cute side while Miss Generous Snow is more shy and quiet. They are crafted with 100% cotton and 100% wool felt, detailed with lace, mini buttons and faux fur. They are stuffed with ployfil and rice.

They are available in the shop now.

Happy Thursday! =)

Kewpie love

It has been a crazy month with a lot of traveling. We finally get a little break at HOME before our next trip. I've got some nice craft supplies on the trip up to Vancouver. It was nice to visit and enjoy the great food there.
I don't remember since when I fell in love with Kewpie dolls. They are just so adorable.

Gotta get back to work. Have a happy week! =)

Pumpkin Patch

We made a visit to a pumpkin patch a few days ago. The field was filled with big and small colorful pumpkin. It was so beautiful there. I can't resist and kept my camera shooting.It was very generous of the farm to offer a free corn maze.

One more day to go and our lantern is on already! Happy Thursday!

Buddy and Girlfriend

Buddy and Girlfriend are two handmade dolls. Girlfriend is a prototype of my handmade dolls collection. Buddy is a custom made for the little bear. He is very homey and his red and white stripes tee is so cute.

Halloween

It's finally here. Happy Halloween Week!! We're planning to watch a spooky movie every nite. Here's my painting to celebrate this special occasion.

Mini vacation

We headed north for a mini road trip last week. It was nice to be in the country. Even though it was only a few hundred miles away from home, it was so different in many ways. We went to a little town filled with European shops and resturants. There was a small grocery store just like the ones in the movies. They have a lot of gourmet jelly, sauce, candy bars and tons of cheese. I love grocery stores. =)

We tried the Danish pancakes with fresh strawberries and buttermilk pancakes in a local restaurant.

The Danish ones was okay. But the buttermilk pancake was sooo fluffy that it was one of the best ones we've ever had. We made a stop at the Mission Ranch by the ocean. It was so beautiful and peaceful there.

Happy Wednesday! =)

the mushroom gang

The first batch of mushroom gang are finally ready. They are so cute! I've saved one for a present. They are made will 100% cotton fabric and 100% wool felt. Their faces are hand-painted with arcylic. They will be on our next store update. Can't wait to send them to their new home. =)

Feature in Esty Tresury

Girl in the Rain is featuring in Esty Tresury. Thanks Vintage Embellishment for including us and all of you who like it. =)

Weeking outing

We went to the Global festival in a local park over the weekend. It featured food and culture from all over the world. It was nice to have a chance to try out different food at one place.

This is a Japanese pancake called Okonomiyaki. It is made from a special batter mixed with cabbage and corn and topped with teriyaki sauce. Delicious!We then went to one of the oldest bookstore in town, Vroman's. It has many books that we don't often see in other bookstores. The Crafter's Companion features many popular crafters. It gave me a lot of inspiration.The other one is Downtown DIY Sewing. It has a lot nice patterns and the styles are very up-to-date. Definitely recommended if you are planning to do some sewing.
Have a great week! =)

The Little Artist

Here's my latest work, The Little Artist.The Little Artist loves to paint. She paints whatever she feels like and she loves her artist outfits. Her little red shoes always give her a lot of inspiration.

Happy Thursday! =)

Weekend reading

Came across this interesting book over the weekend at Compass Books at Downtown Disney. The book is written by famous artist, Patrick McDonnell, creator of Mutts comic strip. I really enjoy the simplicity of the book and the mood is just right for the fall season.

Girl in the Rain

Hope you are having a great weekend.
I don't remember when was the last time it rained here. I wish I have one of these lovely red polka dots raincoats and enjoy the rain falling in my palm when the rain comes.

The One

Happy Tuesday!

The first mushroom painting which is dedicated to the greatness of Love. The two little strangers come across each other on an ordinary day for the first time. It is so unexpected and special. They feel like they have known each other for a very long time.
Miracle does happen if you believe in it.

Welcome =)

Welcome to the little mushroom!
Here is the first post to celebrate our "grand opening". It has been a rough year for many of us. But I'm glad that I've finally get my act together and found this place to share many nice and joyful things with all of you! =)

Happy Autumn!
