A little come back to my felt desert set for Capucine
The story begun two months ago showing my work for Soline to DD1 (a vegetable garden, a pond and a beach) and Capucine reacting with a touch of jealousy. Her Mum wisely advised her to ask for some felt toys for her birthday.
And to put a notion of "you got the first place" I asked her to chose the kind of set she wanted.
No more than a few seconds after we heard an unexpected "I want a desert".
Well, that's a challenge Gran can't refuse. So desert it will be!
It appears soon that dunes will be too hard to do, so a simple flat desert with a pond for an oasis.
Vegetation : palmtree, cactus, plants.
Animals : camel, dromadary, birds, desert fox then came other species : ostrich, sloth, porcupine, anteater, armadillo.
As my thoughts wandered, I found myself on the Egyptian trail and came up with the idea for a little project featuring an Egyptian couple from the Pharaonic era around a pyramid, with the addition of a sarcophagus and its mummy.
It was very fun to do (as for the previous projects for Soline) and Capucine will be inventing new adventures soon.
Le temps m'a manqué pour leur fabriquer une tente de touaregs mais cela me donnera l'occasion d'enrichir mes prochains articles GG ! En commande également : un petit singe, un plant d'ananas, une loutre et un crocodile.
Not enough time to make them a Tuareg tent, but this will give me the opportunity to add it in my next GG posts! Also on order: a little monkey, a pineapple plant, an otter and a crocodile.
This is incredible! You’ve made the most wonderful desert. The animals are just amazing, so much detail and so cute and lifelike. I just hope that their school friends don’t see this and all want little adventure terrains now!

So much to love! I love the desert, but the sarcophagus and its mummy are great!
