did you hear that?
Hammer! Bang! Crash! Who knew a needle and thread could be so noisy? Kidding. No, those noises are not coming from my workshop. They're from the offices across the hall. I wonder if more tenants will be moving in? No more time to ponder that possibility today, though: elves are being made and the work must go on. A quieter sort of work, but no less difficult for its lack of auditory demonstrations. For your kindness in putting up with my boring banter, here's a sneak peek at a couple of the new elves!




























Be still my heart. That miniature toadstool could do it. The elf should come with a warning label. Seriously. Cuteness can kill.

I didn't think you could make anything cuter than that bunny from your post awhile back but this mushroom and elf are equally dear.
