Wishing you all well this Christmas.

I'll be away from the studio for a bit but will be working on new creatures for next year so stay tuned and I hope to be able to entertain you all again in 2011 with a bit of handmaidie goodness. Stay safe and well over the holiday period and hope to see you all next year! Thanks hh

Have a wonderful Christmas!

One final handmaidie friend to share with you. I thought I'd finish the year the way I started it by making a softie just for my daughter. I am calling him "Charlie's Christmas Dude" and I hope she gets a surprise on the morning of the 25th as I have sewn and wrapped him in secret tonight. Merry Christmas everyone and thank you to all my handmaidie converts and supporters out there. If you haven't had the best year I wish for your luck to change in 2011 and for those on a good roll keep it going. Remember to teach your children that creativity is just as important when you are an adult as when you are a child and have a safe holiday. hh



Thank-you!

Thanks to everyone who has been following my facebook page. I have now got to 100 (actually 101). How fantastic! And the random liker has been notified.
I hope to be able to keep everyone interested next year with lots of new ideas and creatures in 2011.
Thanks also to everyone who supports local handmade businesses in their area. Happy holidays, Helen.

First 100

As I am now getting closer to my first 100 liker's on facebook I think it's time to put up my next freebie. So I am thinking my next friend give away will be one of my little caramel vinyl and leather owls. I have also put a squeaker in him too!
So spread the word and you'll be in the running for him to arrive on your doorstep free! (Postage included within Aus.)

Facebook 50

OK, for all you lovelies that decided you would like me I promised to give away a red giraffe (centre)postage paid anywhere in Australia, when I got to 50 to one lucky liker from 1-50.
This will be done every 50, so please keep passing the word around.
I will be contacting the winner by face book and will allow 3 days for reply or I will go onto the next one pulled from the hat! Good luck!
