War and tutorials

 Hello dear readers, 

The missiles attacks on the area where I live have lessened although the war is still on.

I feel safer and started to work again on my miniatures.  Not much to show as I am working on many different items for future tutorials and taking step by step photos on the way.  I try to make my miniatures from easy to find materials, not necessarily craft items which are found only in dollhouse hobby shops.  In Israel there are no such shops but there are many painting and office craft shops, There are also shops that sell school and kindergarten art craft.  One is not very far from my home. 

I started with little people made out of pipe cleaners.  I have new little friends from the shelter space who were very happy to receive some.  A lot of teenagers have shadow-boxes in their room and love to fill them with small toys. 







Well, this short post is just to let you know that I'm keeping alive and OK.

Hugs and blessings to you all xx

  3. Hi Drora! I am so happy to hear that the bombing has slowed down and that you are able to focus on making minis again. The pipe cleaner dolls are just adorable! The dexterity you have in your hands and fingers is something to envy, as is your keen ability to create the most amazing minis from everyday items and craft supplies! I am excited for your upcoming tutorials, and I know that Goldie and Alice will be asking me to make some of your creations for their bedroom. Your presence and hand made gifts are surely a source of great comfort to your shelter mates and you continue to be a blessing even through the worst of times. Bless you, dearest Drora!

  11. It's always a relief to see a new post from you and to know you are okay. And it's great to see you keeping yourself occupied with the best thing you can do: Creating miniatures! Your little dollies are so cute, no surprise your new friends were very happy to receive them. They bring for sure a smile to everybody's face... and this is needed even more in these dark times. Today it the 85th return of the November pogroms and again Jewish people living in my country are afraid to go outside and house walls are marked with David's star. Yes, we really need every smile we can get...

    Hugs
