Annnnd . . . . TIME!

It was 11:58 this morning when Boober decided it was time for his nap, so I was a little late in drawing our winning raffle entry. I am pleased to announce that KATE CLARK has won Moe! I'm just waiting to hear from Kate with a shipping address, and Moe will be on his way home.

I am also super pleased, thrilled even, to announce that the raffle of Moe raised $80 in donations to movember.com. I've already submitted the donation, and would be sharing the receipt here with you, except that all my info is printed on it. I like you all and everything, but I prefer to keep my home address, full name and such off the internet. If you feel very strongly that you need to see the receipt, then let me know, and I'll figure out how to do that blurry thing.

Congratulations Kate, and thank you to each and every one of you who bought a ticket!

Catching up - NOVEMBER edition??

Wow - time sure has a way of flying by.

So apparently it's the end of November. I'm not too worried. I have 2 orders left to do and get into the mail before December 10, then 2 items to make for local delivery . . . and then it's all about my kids! This year I'd like to give Boober a monkey, and Sweet Pea a lamb. Last year they didn't get anything hand-made from momma, and I felt pretty guilty. I even had to go so far as to purchase Boober a Wadorf doll - and I admit I felt silly doing it. Glad to support another doll-maker, but silly.

Here's what I've been up to since the last post:













Whew! No wonder I'm so tired!

And let's not forget Moe -- I made him up this past month too! Raffle entries are still being accepted - don't miss out.

Moe(vember)

This is Moe.


Moe is helping me out.
You see, I've never been a fan of Movember. Many of the gentlemen I know use Movember as an excuse to grow a nasty, greasy, unkempt beard/mustache -- but they don't use it the way it's meant to be used!! They don't register, or ask for donations, or what have you. This has always made me slightly crazy.



This year, I know a fellow who is growing a brilliant mustache for Movember. I looked him up, and he's registered - he's doing it right! This inspires me. I wish I could partake in some way, and so I have crafted Moe to wear brilliant mustaches for me!!



And this is where you come in. Moe will be offered via raffle -- and just in time for Christmas! Here's how it works. Click the buy it now button at the bottom of this post to buy a raffle ticket for Moe - just $3! You can enter more than once, if you'd like. In fact, I encourage it! The raffle will close on November 28 at noon EST. At that time, I will draw the winner from the entries, and the money raised will be donated via movember.com. Moe will be shipped to the winner by end of day November 30 - so he should be there in time for the holidays!




Cool, right?
Moe's mustaches are removable, and interchangeable. They're held in place with velcro. Moe comes with his airplane diaper, and all 4 mustaches you see in this post.


Depending on your response, I may be selling packs of mustaches for dolls in the future. Do you like them? Let me know! Leave a comment, or better yet, tell me with the purchase of a raffle ticket!



PS. Check back in on Wednesday afternoon - I'll announce the winner. I'll need your shipping address!
