If you are still hunting for ideas for you Xmas dioramas have a look at this great tutorial for miniature crackers, I still remembered how I loved them the first Xmas I spent in UK ( we don’t use them in Italy), your dollies will love them as well!

Here instead are the instructions and printies to make a miniature advent calendar (ok, here we are a bit running out of time).

Or what about this adorable munchkin santa pattern from Linda Walsh site? Or the lovely couple Santa and Mrs Claus, from melodiesplus site. By the way you can find here tons of delightful dolls patterns, check out for example the nursery rhyme ones.

If instead you prefer paper dolls, check the Sally paperdolls available on lair2000 site, all the downloads look great. But if you fancy something more “conventional” here are some Betsy McCall Christmas paper dolls. If you love Betsy McCalls dolls like me go to the main page of Terry Pettit wonderful site, you can have a look and save all of them, included Little Kiddles pd.

So, I hope I gave you some ideas and if you have some nice links to share with me please do so, I would love to see them.

And remember, tomorrow is wednesday, weekend is getting closer
