That would look just lovely on our tree here in Hawaii! Sometimes it gets hard to feel very festive when there is no snow. Thanks for doing a giveaway, Helen - very exciting, I have my toes crossed :)

Happy Thanksgiving, the ornament is just fantastic!!!

Helen, I have found your art work through a friend of mine. You are amazing at everything you do, and I hope I can work with you some day. I see some people would like to have some stained glass work of your patterns, and I can do that for anyone who would like it, as long as it's ok with the artist.

BTW- my 2 year old daughter has seen this ornament and loves the "pretty pink happy face".
It's also my birthday today, so this would be a great gift!

Kelly Medina said...

Too fantastic! Count me in! :)

smauge said...

Oh that would look PERFECT on my tree! Last year I started buying only special one of a kind ornaments - I think your's fits the bill! Thanks!

Would love him to come and live in my christmas tree, that's if he doesn't mind travelling all the way to the UK.

Hello Helen!
I used to live in Ottawa - oh so long ago;)
Now I'm in Stockholm, and my daughter will be having her first real xmas (I don't think it last year counts as she was just 3 months old). We'd love hang your ornament on our self-fashioned recycleable tree - the Treearoo. I am postive she'll love it!=)

Millertoons said...

As much as I'd love to have a piece of your artwork, there are more deserving people to get your work as I just found your blog today.

If you don't mind me asking, can you give me a brief ste by step on how you made this. I'm a children's book illustrator, and I'd love to learn how to make plush dolls of some of my characters...Any info would be greatly appreciated.
