Hey there! It's been so long since I posted here that it took me awhile to remember how to do it. We took a vacation to Wyoming and L.A. this summer and I could never seem to get back into the posting groove since then. But I had to share our big news! Introducing the newest member of our family, Yuki!
Isn't she adorable? I've been wanting to get a dog for Buddy forever, but we wanted to wait until he was old enough. We also had to find a dog that would fit our lifestyle and be okay with a cat in the house. So after months of research and waiting we finally brought Yuki home. She's a 12 week old Japanese Spitz and such a sweetie! And Mochi seems to be taking to her as well.
Back soon (I hope) and this time with something craft related I promise.
What a little cutie!

it's kind of embarrassing how much I melt when I see baby animals. Oh, she makes me melt so.

Congrats! She's beautiful. (I've always wanted a Japanese spitz. They're kinda hard to find.)

Hey there,
I've just been reading through your entire blog... and I love it!
Very inspiring, and just what I needed when I have this autumnal crafty feeling.
Are all of your little models made out of paper clay? If you have a spare moment, could you please tell me why you use paper clay as opposed to regular modelling clay?
Your new dog is gorgeous - I've always liked Spitz dogs, and she is super cute.
Take care, thanks for being so kind as to post all your talented creations for the delight of others!

Cutest pup ever! I adopted a year old husky mix whom I bet looked just like that when she was little, except with some black mixed in. I love how expressive the ears can be.
