Noodles and the Dumpling

Aren't they just the perfect pair?

 

P.S.  Actually their names are Matilda and Maddie.  We were going to nickname Maddie the Roni, but she got an enormous butt and Puppy Dumpling stuck.

 

Maddie has finally reached her adult weight of 12 lbs (versus Matilda's bulk of 80)

 

They're mesmerized by a piece of cheese.  Behold the power of cheese.

Ho Ho Ho

 

It's that time of year again! Joanna Jenkins at The Fifty Factor is kindly hosting a giveaway of one of our handcrafted ornaments!

 

Our mission: Highland Roses Design Collaborative Craft Studio is a privately-funded project that provides individuals who live with disabilities and/or mental illnesses as well as their family caregivers an opportunity to step towards independence through the sale of our own arts and crafts creations. We accept no grants or government funding, and are working to become self-sustaining through our own endeavors.

Every step of this undertaking is a collaborative effort---from design to creation. Each distinctive ornament is produced by several sets of hands---all working together to create something special!

Ornaments are a great low-cost gift for family and friends, as well as for teachers, co-workers or others you'd like to remember with a little something.

Support our crafters by stopping by and finding one or two you can't do without, and go by Joanna's to register for her giveaway!!
