****** UPDATE *****
Miss Amy of Bunny Rose Cottage is the winner of my "Spirit of Giving" giveaway!!!! CONGRATS Miss Amy!!!!!!
HO! HO! HO! Welcome wonderful friends! Finally what I've been busily working so hard on is now all finished and ready to be enjoyed for the holiday season. YES! I have updated my Etsy shop! So if you see anything that *tickles* your fancy please take a HOP,SKIP, and JUMP on over to my shop!
This bright red cheery little bunny you see is Penelope Ponisettia. She is sitting sweet and pretty in her vintage little tea cup. Here is some close up details of Miss Penelope.
This next piece I created is for all the angel lovers titled "Christmas Blessings". I was going to adorn the collage with more bits and details, but once I saw the angel alone, I didn't want to take away from her beauty. I cant believe Im saying this, but sometime LESS IS MORE!!!!! :)
She is a vintage Nancy Ann doll that is now an angel.
"Everytime a bell rings an angel get's her wings."
Still keeping on track with the "angel" theme. I made the CUTEST angel tree topper. Please note she is not for a large tree. She is just PERFECT for a table top tree. I currently have her displayed on Vivian tree in her bedroom. While Im showing her off I MUST show off some fabulous ornaments made by my dear sweet friends.
Isnt this tree too darling for words???
My gorgeous Barbie sister Miss Jessi sent me a little package with the girliest ornaments.
Recognize these yummy pastel cupcakes???? One lookie and it screams Jenny and Aaron of Everyday is a Holiday. Omigosh! I've always been a fan of their work and Miss Vivi has some of their pieces hanging in her room. I of course needed to adorn her tree with their cupcake ornaments!
Now let me tell you. When the package arrived I was expecting SMALL. Right? It's only two small ornaments. Well, the package was a wee bit bigger than expected. Tucked inside and wrapped in tissue paper was Jenny's pink bunny that she blogged about a year ago. My heart stopped! I had commented on how much I *loved* and *adored* this bunny. I know Jenny is a lover and collector of bunnies like I am. So you can understand how shocked I was that she sent him to come live with us. "Yes, I said him." Jenny referes to him as a male. ;) So now we have adopted and are the proud parents of Mr. Pinky. That is the name me and the children have decided to call him. Thank you sooo much Jenny for this unbelievably SWEET surprise. We will take excellent care of him!!!!
This BIG googled eyed angel topper is available.
I made two darling Christmas brooches that can be worn or displayed in your home.
I thought the red and blue combo was too cute!
Little bunny decorating her tree.
Im REALLY EXCITED about this piece I made. It's my first necklace I've ever made!!!! Oh gosh! Could the colors not be any yummier, and it's has a PINK DOE!!!! Yes! I painted her pink!!! Jeez…It's hard to part with this necklace.
Yes! I know Im cute!!!
I really love how it turned out. Seriously kitsch and fun to wear. Obviously NOT to wear to your office Christmas party, but definitely for a fun festive Christmas mood!
********* I have saved the best for last!!!! *************
Well in my humble opinion. LOL!!! I have created Winter wonderland snowglobes that are made out of vintage gumball machines. Each one is very different from the other, but they still have the angel theme that I just cant seem to stay away from. These snowglobes would be SOOOO darling and UNIQUE displayed in your holiday home.
This first piece is my smaller piece which is titled "Christmas helper" . I made an ornament with the same angel and bunny last year, and loved it so much that I decided it would be darling in a snowglobe. The bottom has a thin layer of faux snow.
How cute is this girlie doe???
This next oooh so darling winter snowglobe is titled "We three angels" and is one that will give you a sugar rush!!!! Pink and Aqua, pink reindeer, and little singing angels. *SIGH*… can get it get any sweeter???
EEEEK! Soooo sweet!!!!
This last Winter snowglobe is honestly my favorite. The color of the base is a super soft pale pink. I decorated the piece in whites,gold,pale pink,creams, and fuschia pink for a "pop" of color. This original piece is titled "Winter Forest Friends".
Vintage reindeer figurine all froofed up!
Little "close-up's"
"Hello little wee one's".
When you turn the snowglobe around you'll see this little fella hiding out. ๐
I hope you like these darling bubblegum machine snowglobes. I had SOO much fun making them, and I have BIG plans to make more for different themes in the near future.
Now that my shop is updated it's time to finish my holiday home! WHEW! On from one thing to the next. ๐
Dont forget I will be drawing a give away winner for my giveaway this Thursday, and please be sure to check out my lovely girlfriend Heather of Pretty Petals Chrismtmas Party she is hosting on Monday December 15th.
Have a wonderful week sweet friends and HAPPY HOLIDAYS! I look forward to skipping around and seeing your beautiful holiday homes and crafts!

Your gum ball maachines are so sweet! I ran over to your etsy store but they were sold! Honestly, I shouldn’t be buying for myself anyway.
Happy Holidays!
Wow Miss Jenn you are dishing out 100 scoops of pretty!!! I was drooling over all the darling glittery goodies your talented hands have made!!! ๐ I’m skipping off to your shop now…ta-ta!!
Oh Jenn! These are the most beautiful things I have ever seen! I wanted a gumball machin and the bunny brooch but i missed out ๐ I am so bummed!!

The snow globes are adorable.. What an imagination! I wanted that little angel but she’s gone now!
Jenn,
I always seem to be a little too late for your updates and I miss all the goodies.
Your work is pure, sweet sugar! Delicious!
Have a wonderful vintage holiday.

Hi Jenn… Such a Lovely post! I remain in awe of your seemingly endless talents… Everything is so pretty… I โฅ the Pink Deer necklace ~ some very lucky girl will be beaming as she wears it this Holiday Season! I was especially fond of your Gumball-Snow-Dome creations… they’re simply Enchanting, Jenn! I must say, when I saw the last one, with the sweet Angel inside, tears rolled down my cheeks… she is just like the Angel my Parents had on their first Christmas tree in 1948… though I’m not the new owner of that beautiful piece, I can still enjoy your photos and the warmth that comes to my heart in doing so… Thank You, Jenn, for sharing and for helping to spark a very dear memory to me… God bless…
~hugs ‘n prayers~

Twinkle,
Those gumball machiness are 2DIE4. I am loving every one of them, but the pink one especially. I ran over to Etsy but they must have sold out.
How could those possibly last more than a few minutes.
They are 2DIE4. Everyone is creating such wonderful items for the holidays. These were truly an amazing idea!
Love them all………
xo Cath

Hey, Twink.
Gosh, it’s been a long time since I typed that, “Twink”.
It’s been way too long.
I haven’t been keeping up with anyone’s blogs very well recently, but, saw yours when I was working on my blog and thought I would stop by for a visit.
Well, I’ve had a very nice, long!, visit and am, though not in awe, so impressed with all that you’ve been creating.
I’m not in awe because I am not surprised – you are so talented!
And I have a couple of your first pieces, do you remember?? They’re very happy in my guest room.
Anyway, I just thought I’d let you know that I had stopped by, I’m loving what you’re creating, I remember when you first started (I have a picture of you at your craft table somewhere around here!), and I miss you – I haven’t been in a position these last two years to do as much as I’d like *life has really gotten in my way!*, but, I have thought of you.
I also read your post on Silver Bella.
I’m into glitter now – maybe I can go some year. LOL
xoxo, Jan
