Grandma's statue

I would have said "Garden Nymph" but Mom says it can't be outside, it will dissolve or something. Mom has had it at her house tucked into a corner where it was easily overlooked for years. Every time I came to visit mom said I could have it but I never took it back to my home.
So now I have placed it outside the door to my studio. She looks very welcoming and cheers up the breezeway.

Suki she is lovely. Charming. Sweet. I am happy for you to have found a special place for her, welcoming you to come in and create to your hearts content.

I love it. how cute it is. Yes good you found a special place for her. I did my back in again and have been in pain so finally blogged something tonight and checked out your blog. Sorry for being so late.

Well I do think she can breathe better out here where she is doing a job too of welcoming me and others into my workshop.

Cris sorry about your back. Painful and uncomfortable. Take care of you.

She is a beautiful, happy one! I guess I'd think too it was a garden-nymphe, I see her in ivy and besides a bird bath... (not snow, cause she's a summer nymphe:)
Can she melt? Or why does your mom thinks that she'll disintegrate?
I wish you a good Wednesday
