Tonight my 7 year old daughter Nataly and I are having Proper Ladies's Tea Party. It is our new game we invented in our busy life to hang out and having Mom-Daughter time (by the way, boys are not allowed). There are a couple of rules, for instance, cookies, cupcakes or whatever we are serving for a Tea party should be handmade. The same rule applies to the gifts we are going to exchange. I know that she has been working on something but I am patient enough to wait till tonight.
As for me, I worked on a little surprise for her while she was at the school this week. I made a nightlight from the kit that Victoria Lane offers. I've been impressed and fascinated by Egg Art for a long time and finally I found time to put my hands on it and started with the kit.
The base of this doll is is an emu egg that has been cut and glittered by Victoria Lane. I dressed the doll and egg with beautiful fabric and trimmed it, wigged the doll and decorated her hair.
I put some pink feather inside the egg. In one hand the Lady holds a bouquet of flowers and there is a little Koala (I LOVE KOALAS) Fairy on her other hand (koala bear fairy is made by a miniature artist Cheryl Brown and not included in the kit).
After that I put the doll on the Turntable light and I think it looks magnificent.
Do you think Nataly will like it?
Have a great weekend!
Natalia
P.S.: I think I will add a Koala Bear Fairy Land scene inside the egg later...

She is beautiful. I am sure your daughter will love her. The Koala is adorable as well.

Thank you, Lisa! I made her day and she made me happy! Natalia
Wow! Amazing mom!
That is a beautiful creation, a night light and a lady to bring wonderful dreams ;)
Very pretty, Natalia. I love it on the turntable light too. I have never seen anything like it. Great work!
Thank you, Jane! It was a special gift for that special little girl I love sooo much!
Casey, thank you! I have now so many ideas about combining egg art and miniatures! Where only take time for it?
A special and wonderful gift.
I have no doubt Nataly was over the moon with this beautiful gift! Simply stunning!

P.S.: I've been really glad to read your comments today... I was already worrying a bit... ;O) Hope to hear from you real soon because I really would love to start something just for you!
HiNatalia! You have made a very pretty doll and I am certain that you daughter is going to go wild for it! I also used to have 'Tea Parties' with my daughter when she was just a young'un. We didn't have real cupcakes or cookies, NO my little girl mixed a concoction of mud and Play-Doh and added a bit of chopped grass for protein! Oh Yum! We had such a great time sticking our pinkies out and pretending to drink tea.
These are times, Natalia, that you will always cherish
What a beautiful gift! Love the tea party idea. I'm a bit jealous as a mom to two sons...now all grown.
Enjoy these precious moments!
