ADO Four Elements Challenge Doll

ADO will be hosting the Four Elements Challenge Doll this Friday. Make sure to go to their site to see all the participating blogs and then check out what each artist has made. I'm cheating a little by posting early but will not be able to on Friday so here goes. I went with the Earth element and made a little gnome doll named Netty that has her own mushroom house to live in. Netty stands about 3 1/2 inches tall and the mushroom house is about 10 inches tall. Both were needle felted and were fun to make except when I accidentally stuck myself with the felting needle which was not fun. Luckily it didn't happen too often.




















Don't forget to go to ADO's blog for this event on Friday!
