#43 Winter's Edge

 

Hi Lovelies ⛄

If you have time this weekend, I encourage you to go visit LeLoo's World Winter's Edge.  Pop your 'shared environment' on and be wowed at the beauty before you!  This place is magical!  Breathtaking!!  As you arrive, a flurry of snow drifts over you, the beautiful sky slowly highlighting the scene before you.  This is somewhere you will want to slow your pace... take your time and drink in the surroundings.  The Observatory is a definite highlight.  You feel the warmth as you walk in the door.  Instant cozy vibes.  Makes me think of Polar Nights in Svalbard.  This is somewhere I could truly just lay and watch the sky drifting by whilst listening to the whistling wind.  A true peaceful haven.

What I Am Wearing:
Gramma's are here to bring you the 'Winter Forecast' this month!  I am loving the layered sleeve top with its fun slogan 'Winter Napstorm Warning: All Paws To Cozy Positions'.  The Red version of this outfit has an equally fun slogan 'Winter Forecast: 100% Pawsitive Nap Vibes Ahead'.  Paired with knitted pants, these are an absolute bargain at 1L each this month in the CMH Baby It's Cold Outside 5' Hunt.  I have added this cute Snowflake Winter Hat from Starlight Dinkies which can be worn with or without the bow and is scripted to tuck your ears away and keep them cozy!  You can only find this hat Exclusive to the Hunt for just 25L!  To complete the outfit, I found these lovely All Little Folks Ode Boots.  I am wearing version 2 that comes with 5 Boot and 7 Legwarmer options.  They cannot be worn apart but I think it completed the look perfectly.

After all that exploring, it was time for a nap!  This beautiful Blanket and Cushions set from Petite Panache is so beautifully textured for winter, and I just had to add my Snowman Cushion from Starlight Apparel to snuggle with.  Both are available in the 'Baby It's Cold Outside 5' Hunt this month.  Not to be missed!  But now... it's time for some zzzzz's.

#42 New Year, New You?

 


Hi Lovelies ⛄

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year.  Here we are, finally into 2026!  January is definitely a month to hibernate for me.  Wayyyyy too cold outside (currently -5 as I write this).  I plan to visit a few snowy, winter regions this month as I ease my way slowly into this New Year ahead (and before the creating commitments become hectic once more as Valentine's comes around next month).

Cheeky Monkey Hunts are starting the year with a jam packed line up of amazing Prizes and Exclusives in their 'Baby It's Cold Outside 5' Grid Wide Hunt throughout January.  Today I want to focus on a very talented Dinkie Creator, Llola Lane, who I affectionally call Dinkie Monkey, such is her passion to create and also to attract other like minded Designers to the Hunts.  She is an absolute godsend!  So with that...

What I Am Wearing:
Llola puts a lot of love and pride into her designs, making them as unique as she can with her own design patterns.  She also includes some wonderful accessories with her outfits which I feel really make her stand out from the crowd.  

This month Llola has created this beautiful Snowflake BOM Outfit.  Do notice the attention to detail with the little added snowflakes on the waist and also side of the Boots.  The outfit and boots are EXCLUSIVE to the Hunt this month, there is also some Ear Muffs included, but my preference on this occasion was very much like me in RL, a bobble hat.  I live in bobble hats in the winter.  Head on over to Llola's Dinkiewear shoppe and there is also an additional 1L knit sweater available too.

In my right paw I also have one of Llola's Full Perm creations, a Snowflake Plushie!  What a super cute accessory to finish the look!  You can find this as well as Llola's many other Full Perm goodies at her Full Perm Store
