July and August 2023 Calendar Pictures

Hi everyone!

Apologies for disappearing during the month of July, oops! I've been well, just busy with work and the house-buying process I mentioned in my last post. It's being a bit stressful and we still haven't signed the papers, but hopefully we'll be able to get everything done, little by little. We hope to move by maybe early next year, we want to take things slowly. Maybe it'll be sooner, who knows!

I was also away for two weeks in July for my summer vacation, but I am now back, so here are the pictures from Cutata's wonderful calendar for both last month and this present one:

July:

 

For the month of July, we have a lovely and colourful picture of Betty Blackberry's juice bar in Sweet Berry Valley. I'm sure her tasty and refreshing juice would be the perfect choice for a hot summer day. Cutata made Betty a little stand with some shelter from the sun, and I think that's a wonderful idea. Arcfield's Ophelia Blackberry is quite jealous! Betty also thought of her costumers and set up a lovely area for them to enjoy their drinks under an umbrella. Love this picture, and seeing the Maces grandparents is quite nice as well. I wish they still made grandparent figures!

Don't forget that Betty also had a spot in the Farmer's Market!

August:

 


The Neptune family is enjoying a wonderful day at the beach! I just adore their tiny swimsuits, they're so perfect! Cutata made them out of ballons, and let me tell you, it's way harder than it looks, haha! I tried it and failed miserably, but then again, I've never been very good at crafting. I also adore this picture, with the endearing Sylvanians and the cute tiny seashells!

I've recently finished taking the pictures for the Sylvanian nursery school story I've been planning, so hopefully that'll be posted soon! :)

Have a wonderful month of August and stay safe and healthy, everyone!

  1. Hi Ayrell!

    When I look at the calendar and I see that we´re already in August it seems incredible to me. Time flies by!

    These pictures bring me very good memories! I really enjoyed making the juice stand for Bettie. The poor thing needed some shelter from the sun.

    When I made the swimsuits for the Neptune family I found it quite easy. However,I tried to make swimsuits a few days ago and the result was not as good. I think it all depends on the size and quality of the balloons.

    I'm glad to hear that you have finished taking the photos for the nursery school story. I´m looking forward to reading it!

    Have a good rest of the week!
    Hugs!

    1. Hi Cutata!
      I agree with you regarding the time passing so fast. It's almost September!
      I enjoyed reading the post from which these pictures come from, and I think your new swimsuits came out quite well! Peace looked adorable in her orange one. :)

      Have a wonderful day!
