There might be a few of those showing up on my facebook page/ in the shop soon.
I always had a fascination for hot air balloons and it is one of my dreams to go on a hot air balloon ride 🙂
I just love these giant, colourful bubbles floating in the air, so peacefully. It is not about speed and getting from point A to point B as fast as possible, it is about soaking in the moment, feeling the aliveness and connection between you and the world/ nature and realizing the peace and stillness that surrounds us.
Well, this all sounds a bit grand…
I just love hot air balloons, they make me happy. And since dolls make me happy as well, dolls AND balloons are just perfect.
I have been thinking about a way to make them in a way that they can be send around the world as affordable as possible and thanks to a lot of creative input from friends here on the page and in the Sami group as well as me remembering some handy tips from other craft projects… I cut out the prototype for a hopefully wonderful hot air balloon for the dolls today and will sew it up tomorrow. Fingers crossed it works out the way I imagined or even better 🙂
