Cantigny (Can Tee Nee) Park

This is the view from my booth to the main park walkway.

The park itself is gorgeous and the event held many activities for all ages!

I was able to meet "Madeline"...she did a story hour for the smaller kids and even the older "kids" got in on the meet and greet! I was also able to meet some local artists who I know will become kindred spirits.

Practicing our booth setup...

And believe it or not...we forgot to take pictures of our booth in action! However there was another French moment...an encounter with a mime I won't soon forget...

GODDESS ART DOLLS TRAVEL TO RUSSIA

Mimsies goddess dolls are making their way to Russia as I
post. A commissioned project was asked of me by a friend of my sister's and here
are the results. These are really a joy to create. I have others that are not
personalized with titles like: Princess, Goddess, Your Highness, etc. just
really fun! Enjoy!

The Girls before they were packaged.

A nice little gift bag.
