OWOH Look What I Won!!!

What is the best part about the end of OWOH (one world one heart blog event)???

Receiving the wonderful prizes you have won, of course!

I was the lucky winner of these amazingly wonderful goodies:

This is the cutest little book about journaling I won from Marcia of Vivid Layers.
Thank you Marcia!!!

Kathy of Calkat the Jewelry Junkie and Ametista sent me this stunning three-strand citrine and pearl necklace with a citrine and amethyst sterling pendant...it is so gorgeous and I can't wait to wear it!

Thank you Kathy!!!

And last (but in no way least) 

Meet FELICITY!

Felicity is a wonderful little handmade soft doll by Pam from Yoborobo. Thank you so much Pam, I adore her!!!

I love Day of the Dead dolls, and just look at her body, it is printed with ghosts, tombstones, and black cats.

It didn't take long to find out that Felicity loves the camera.

Here she is posing with one of my little birthday monkeys.  She jumped in his photo shoot just before I packaged him up.

Felicity found her home under my Feti tree.  She has fun making the feti giggle and she tickles the flower fairies with her macabre humor.

Thank you for stopping by and letting me show off my booty, hehe!

I hope you were a winner too.

One World One Heart 2011

OWOH is here, hurray! 

It's the beloved Lisa Swifka's 5th annual One World One Heart Giveaway,  

read all about it here.

List of participants here

My name is Waxela (wa-shay-la), and I have always been an artist.  I make art dolls and sock monkey cake toppers, among other things.  I have two kids, a toddler and a teen.  I never know who is going to have the next tantrum...my toddler, my teen, or me!  Occasionally my husband has a meltdown too, but usually he's picking up the pieces and putting us all back together.

I'm so happy to share this fun event with you and to offer a little something I made.

My door prize is a One World One Heart mixed media fairy that I made especially for this event:

She can be hung on a wall and has a plush body, polymer clay face, arms, and legs, and laminated paper wings, and a beaded wand.

She will be flying to the winner with a package of 4 heart fabric covered buttons which I covered, and a polymer clay textured heart which I also made.

The drawing is open to all bloggers.

If you would like to be included in my giveaway drawing, please leave a comment on this post and be sure I can reach you through your blog or leave your email address.  

The sign up ends on Feb. 17th at midnight.  On Feb 18th I will randomly choose a  winner and post the name on my blog. (I will email the winner too).

I would like it if you include a link to your OWOH post if you are participating so I can visit your blog too!

Thank you for visiting,

Goddess Tree Beaded Tapestry Giveaway!

I promised a giveaway to my followers, and this is it!

It is a beaded tapestry, which I made entirely from upcycled furniture sample pieces. The tapestry has a Nile Goddess in a tree, and depicts two of my favorite things...the Nile River Goddess and trees.  I used seed and bugle beads to enhance the goddess and leaves.

It has a sleeve at the back to run a small dowel through so it can hang on your wall.

This giveaway is open to all of my followers.  All you have to do is be a follower of my blog.  I will choose a winner randomly on March 18th.  You must become a follower by Wednesday, March 17th at 11:59pm to be included in the giveaway.  

Good Luck!

Just the cutest little ornament I ever have seen. She came all the way from Pennsylvania, from The Studio at Crow Haven Farm, and I LOVE her so much!!!

One World One Heart Giveaway...whooohooo!

I'm participating in the biggest blogger giveaway known to bloggers (or at least to this one)!

Click on the logo above to learn more about it. My giveaway is open to everyone, even if you do not have a blog.

Here is what I am giving away:

Strange Bird Owl Man Ornament

This is an odd little guy. He is Owl Man, a strange bird indeed.

He is strung on blue cord so you can hang him on a tree or anywhere you want him hanging around.

Owl man is made of polymer clay, he's perched on a real twig, and he has some feathers on top. He is handmade, ooak (one of a kind) and he is about 3" high, not including his blue cord.

AND:

Calavera Earrings Dia De Los Muertos Sugar Skulls

I Love La Dia de los Muertos, so I had my first rubber stamp produced from my own ink drawing of this skull, and I couldn't wait to get started using it!

Here I have some wonderful skull earrings with sterling silver earwires and vintage black faceted glass beads. The skulls are polymer clay which I stamped, cut, baked, painted, buffed, and glazed for your enjoyment.

The backs are painted with shiny enamel black acrylic paint.They hang 2.75" long1.5" wide.

They are very light weight and will not hurt your ears!

The first winner will receive both gifts, and I have decided to do a second giveaway in honor of my love of goddesses.

It's the Nile River Goddess on a blue batik flag.

The second winner will receive the Goddess flag.

If you only like the owl/skull giveaway, or if you only want the goddess flag be sure to note this in your comment!

Sign ups end at 11:59pm on Feb 11, winners will be announced on Feb 12!

Have fun and good luck!

Blessings,
