I have been contemplating this for a long time.  Trying to simplify things so I can get more done in less time.  Therefore, I will no longer be posting on this blog. WWW.THEVINTAGEPOLKADOT.COM will be my main posting site with all my lastest drama, also new dolls and patterns as I have them available.
So be sure to drop by my site and "follow" me when you get there :)
Look forward to seeing you!

Ghost?

Well....I find this picture to be, for a lack of a better work, FREAKY. I took this picture a couple of weeks ago in my booth at the antique mall. The mall was once a school gym built in 1959-1960. This picture was taken around 10:30pm. Nobody was in the building but my husband and myself.

Click on the photo to enlarge. Look through the window onto the stairs on the other side. Do you see something sitting on the steps with his hands through the railing? Do you see a ball cap? Our daughter can see it so I know we're not crazy! :D

Time is flying by.  I've done some work in my booth.  It's been a busy year.  I'm no longer scheduled to work behind the counter at the antique mall but I am working as the owners' merchandiser/displayer, help maintain their website and do things like that.   I hope to get some doll making done soon.  All the while I've been tweaking my house here and there.

It's getting time to fluff my booth again.  I have a china cabinet that's ready to be painted and a fantastic twig coffee table.  My husband is ready for me to get the garage cleaned out.  ha! yeah, right....like that's going to happen :P

 

What's going on?!!

What I have been doing.... It's sad at how long it's been since I've posted on my blog. Well, I've been busy is all I can say. With working at the antique mall, working my booth there, working on the festival, work, work work...I haven't had time to make dolls or anything much. I have taken a break and getting my house and life in general cleaned up...feeling good :) Below are some pictures of what I've been doing. The jar salads are a new thing for me. I love a good salad but too lazy to make them daily.   I know it's pathetic!
Hoping to get started on dolls soon!

Fraud

There is an Ebay Seller who is selling epatterns in print form on Ebay. So far I have found this person has sold 3 of my bunny wreath pattern and sold one of my FREE spider pattern. Yes even the free pattern I have out there. What's funny is not only could the buyer have gotten the spider for free but they could have gotten the bunny wreath pattern cheaper from me! Unfreakin'believable!

I grow weary of this crap. I have had to deal with a person on Picasa who was trading my patterns and now this person on Ebay.

Having Fun!

Please excuse my mess.....I get spastic when I'm ready for new decor on my blog. HA!

Happy Easter

It's been awhile since I have posted. I hope to get everything back in gear by June.
Hope all of you are having a great year!
HAPPY EASTER!

Happy Holidays!

I appreciate you following my blog and supporting my business this year! I hope to get back to doll and pattern making in 2012. Let's keep our fingers crossed :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your families.

God bless you all,

Brenda

Huge Snowflakes Today!

I'm now carrying Crossroad Candles!

We love these candles! Crossroads 16-ounce candles have a burn time of 80-100 hours. Each candle is made with a very clean burning, blended paraffin wax which allows them to add the maximum amount of fragrance. The jar candle features two lead-free wicks.
