My Cute Little Mouse Diorama

I've been playing around with this idea in my head for a while but just got around to making it today.  It's a little mouse reading a book under a mushroom on a little tuffet.  I am going to add a butterfly and more flowers etc...  I'm loving how its turning out so far!

Hello Beautiful!

Yes, and I do mean you!;) I have been meaning to share with you about a fellow friend and blogger, Kathryn of Secrets of a Butterfly. Her site is just gorgeous and I do mean it sincerly to say that one day I hope I can create a website half as beautiful as hers!:) You should go check it out and you will see what I mean. http://www.secretsofabutterfly.typepad.com/

Kat has also been kind enough to post a link on her site to my little etsy shop, which I think is so sweet of her. She has recently published a book filled with beautiful reflections and photography called Wishes of Peace.  I am planning on getting a copy asap! It will look so pretty sitting on my coffee table!

Finished this little guy tonight

It took me a bit longer than I thought it would tonight to finish the mouse and the mushroom piece. Note to self ; to take better care of my yarn! When I moved my studio out into the garage many of my supplies got scrambled and it took me an hour to get the yarn untangled from a ball of snarled mess! But I had no more gray and was to pressed for time and too cheap to go buy more. Felting the tiny paws proved a bit difficult. I noticed certain roving is easier to work with than others. But here is the finished product. Hope it brings a smile to someones face! It did mine! :)
