shortlisted... woo hoo!
Clara and Macy have been shortlisted in the Holiday Softie Awards and they would love for you to vote for them. Clara even said 'pretty please?' which is quite impressive I think you'll agree.
Congratulations to all of the other nominee's - what a wonderful selection of talent. Good luck x
Oh and just to let you know, the craft fair was lovely. It was the first time I had shown my actual toys in public and I was overwhelmed with the response. People seemed to love them! Especially Clara and Macy, and quite a few even asked when there will be Clara and Macy books out for them to buy. Maybe soon, I hope?!
And I will be adding quite a few new products to the shop over the next week but I'll send a newsletter out to let you know what and when. Mostly Christmas things, I think.
congratulations on being one of the nominees, very exciting!

My whole family wants you to win!!! And my kids want you to make Clara and Macy dolls because they're sure you already have them and are begging me to buy them!! And I keep saying you don't have them! So, there's an idea! You have two future customer/Clara fans just waiting for the whole craze to start!!!

Congratulations!! I just submitted my votes. How can anyone turn down Clara when she says "pretty please"? And thank you very much for the posters which I got last week!!

Clara didn't need to ask me twice - I just voted for her. Yes, there were some really great entries. But some just stood out from all the others - like Clara and Macy. =) Another favorite of mine was the baby gingerbread.

I saw your blog for the first time today and am already hooked. Clara's biography is adorable. Your softie snowman is a winner! I'll hop on over and vote right now. Well... maybe I'll read a bit more of your blog first.
Hugs,
Joni

I've voted twice (bad me!) I used both the computers I have access to!! I think that Clara and Macy were the best thing there - although a there were a lot of impressive creations! Congratulations!!
