This may well be the last post I'll be making before Christmas, but I thought I should let you see the diorama of the Paris studio apartment finished.
Well as finished as it's going to be at the moment . . . I'm still undecided about the pulls for the blinds and I need some miniature pampas grass or something similar to go in my large black urn . . . maybe I'll end up just finding something in my garden.
I hope all of my readers have a Happy Christmas despite the current pandemic . . . stay safe and well until my return and if you need something to occupy time in lockdown, check out this link to the artist who drew this Christmas card!
MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM DOWN UNDER!
Hi Xanadu! I love the room, it's lovely. I like the aqua color wall and how you carried it to other details of the room.
ReplyDeleteWish you also a happy holiday season. Hope that, despite the pandemic, you can have a fun and happy time. Stay safe!
Thank you MC, I'm actually going to use this same room for my new kitchen that hubby has bought for me for Christmas...it will be a long drawn out process as there are several pieces that need assembling and painting. :)
DeleteWe have been very fortunate down under, after the 221 days in total lockdown things are almost back to normal...we are enjoying and making the most of every moment of freedom. I just wish it was the same everywhere else too!

Here in my neck of the woods everyone and their dog is putting out Christmas lights. I think they're all sick to death of the doom and gloom this coronavirus crap has brought. Are the folks in your area putting up lights too?
ReplyDeleteHi RM!
DeleteYes, it appears many here are doing the same, it's a great way to add some happiness and cheer to the season. It's been an awful year, but there is light at the end of the tunnel at last, so we have something to look forward to.

It turned out very nice, all the little details and the paintings. I am sure your girls feel very much at home there. Just in case you don't post before Christmas I take the opportunity to wish you a wonderful time and reason for joy.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mia, I'm sure they do. I think although the year has been a little on the crappy side, I still think we have plenty of reasons for joy . . . after all we have some wonderful friends to share our dollies with here.
DeleteStay safe and enjoy what you hold dear.

Thank you for asking, things are going somewhat well. However in the stress of the pandemic I kind of forgot to doll blog. How about you, how are things going for you? :)

Hola Sanadu, qué bien que nos enseñas tu diorama. Te ha quedado fantástico, aunque falten pequeños detalles como los tiradores de las persianas. Pero está genial, las pequeñas muñecas parecen totalmente felices de estar ahí.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo y felices fiestas.
Hola Ilona, he disfrutado haciendo el diorama, aunque parece que tengo un vacío mental en los tirones de las persianas ... cualquiera pensaría que fue una gran decisión. Creo que cuando encuentro una borla lo suficientemente pequeña, también puedo encontrar la respuesta que estaba buscando. Jajaja
DeleteGrandes abrazos y felices fiestas para ti también mi amigo,

Thank you Linda. Hahaha! I wanted to add a pet and he seemed the most appropriate. The items in the bookcase are tiny ornaments I picked up in the $1 shop and the books I made myself from printable minis from https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/ForDollsWithLoveArt.
ReplyDeleteStay safe and have a wonderful Christmas, big hugs.

It's very light and airy! The colors are bright, but not overwhelmingly so. Cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks Barb! I am making a throw for the bed settee now. :)

The room looks wonderful, I love the colours and details.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you! :* Stay safe and healthy, you and your close ones.
Thank you Joanna, the colours are based on the fabric I used for the blinds. :)

Your diorama is simply beautiful, I love the way it turned out! It's colorful and at the same time very tasteful and elegant, everything fits perfectly!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and happy hollidays!
Thank you, I'm happy with it. It's quite different to my other dioramas, but that's a good thing for me, otherwise I get bored. :)
DeleteSame to you! Big hugs,

The diorama is looking fantastic! And very comfortable! That is a really nice Australian Christmas Art. Merry Christmas to you too! I hope 2021 will be a great year for you and that you'll eventually be able to go on that Paris holiday you've been wanting to do. I'm sure we'll speak via email in the New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alasse. I hope your 2021 is too, it's certainly looks like it's off to a good start. I did think we would simply postpone it for 12 months, but I'm not so sure now, maybe it will be 2022 before it's really safe to travel again.
