Greetings and Good evening everyone! Yesterday my mother fell and seriously hurt her hip .... lots of time in the hospital and taking care of her.
Which brings me to my question for Saturdays email contest for a great little piece of antique lace! Simply add your comments below and I will select one Saturday Night.
WHAT are some ways you can take your miniature doll making along when you have to spend extended period of time away from the studio? .... Share with the rest of us! Do you bring small pieces of fimo along for sculpting? Bodice pieces to hand sew? Stomachers to bead?
Yesterday's Pregnant picture email winner was Paula Crane. Congrats Paula - just send me your snail mail address privately at Dana@Miniatureart.com

Greetings and Good Morning everyone! WOW ... now that we woke everyone up on the list after the holiday slumber ... its time to get involved and MAKE that doll! AND to help you do that --- we always have at least 3 contests going at any one time!
(BEFORE I get started .... here is ONE simple thing I'd like you to remember. There are 1400 members on the list .... with different tastes, life experiences and cultures. I provide a WIDE variety of activities on the list to - hopefully - interest everyone. Don't try to enter ALL the events, contests, rather pick out one or two and have fun. This way you won't get overwhelmed).
CONTESTS .....
SAME MATERIAL CONTEST .... this is a fascinating and fun use of a single screen printed flower on cotton material. Cut out the flower, ... use as a ballerina skirt, faery etc - whatever your imagination sees. This contest photos are due to Marilyn Parke in February ... AND I have 2!!! that I am giving away as prizes this morning. Then all packets are sold out. Simply leave a comment on the blog about an idea for an upcoming contest ... and first two entries will win a flower.
Memories Video Contest .... watch the video - and you will be sucked in! Such a relevant story for so many of us ... whether in love, gothic costumes, immortal romance, or simply an understanding of old age. This contest deadline was extended to May 15th ... and you now have time to make that room box - doll - or perhaps the magic mirror!
Valentines BUST Contest .... this is a great contest for new members or busy other members. Simply dress a half bust (which can also be used as a pin or miniature clothing store wall bust).
All contest details can be found on the list website .... http://www.minidollLIST.com
Alrighty ... that is all for this morning .... a new chance to win this afternoon with another Dana's Musings....
Happy Creating - and PICK out that contest and get motivated!

Greetings and good Morning everyone! I hope you are enjoying all the *WHO ARE YOU* emails sent yesterday and again this morning! I personally like getting to know the person behind the name ... it makes it a much friendlier list if we get to know each other a bit more.
