Happy Easter to one and all!
We are heading out of town for a mini holiday, so Little Sparrow will be closed tomorrow and re-opening next Tuesday.
The wheels are nearly ready to roll, the car's nearly packed....if you need wheels for a getaway there are some great cars in the shop at the moment.
Big Wagon $85, locally crafted from pine and redgum
Small Car $38, locally crafted from redgum
All ready to ROLL!

cuddly and custom made!

This weather has rendered my brain incapable of stringing more than two words together so the best i can do is show you two cuddly custom orders that will be jetting off tomorrow.
You can order these dolls online at http://www.specialfriendswaldorfdolls.com/
or you can call me or pop into the shop.....there are always a few on the shelf too!
