DOLL HOUSE STORIES

THE FAIRY INN ON THE GROVE
Over the Holidays
I finished
fairy-izing my little doll house
the outside is just the way I envisioned it

moss and ivy
Daisy the Field Troll sit up top
and the Dragon guards the other
peak
actually it keeps my monkey cats from
climbing on the roof

all the little soft fairies on the outside
and the Forest Witch
Glennlinda caught a naughty Sprite
on his way to the Inn to cause trouble

a twig tower, where a nest keeper
watches over new eggs

THE FAIRY INN ON THE GROVE

As the cold winds blow up North
the Faeries start traveling South
nestled in an old abandoned orange grove
the little house
has become
The Fairy Inn

looking for a cozy place to nap

the Merfaerie lounged in the
petal bowl filled with morning dew and rose petals

Dandelion Kitty sat watch
on the staircase


after her bath
her pink curls dried

a happy dance

sweet fairy kisses for the baby

all these tiny dolls are in my shop

COOKING TURKEY & PLAYING WITH DOLLIES

While the Christmas Turkey is cooking
I strung up some new
tiny dolls

Stringing is my favorite part of the doll making process
these little ones just come to life

I finally figured out a Mermaid body out of clay that works
YAY
plus a kitty and a tiny faerie
Doll House Faeries will debut in my shop soon!

But right now I have a huge sale going on in my shop
" all "

great time to pick up your favorites
So far, a quiet and peaceful Christmas in the Country


Merry Christmas to all!

CHRISTMAS SKY


Central Florida
Looking over the farmland
a
Christmas sunset
wish I could
bottle these colors

a pink sky tonight
is a
Sailor's delight

ROSEBUD FAERIES & BABY BUDS

Doll House Faeries

The little Mommies of the Faerie World
appeared late in the evening


By morning these lovely ladies had found
a comfortable place to live


Up in the Attic the nest were awaiting
new eggs

Cozy in the doll house

RUSTY

South of Key West
there lies the
Dry Tortugas
where great Lagerhead Turtles
swim among the
coral heads

This be paradise for a little Pixie Pirate
named
Rusty

in the old lighthouse
she watches the jewels
a very important job
keeping
the treasure of her Master
safe
she wears a Pirate and Crossbone pouf skirt
and red corset jacket
she loves her tri-cornered feathered
hat

peaceful palm breezes no ships in site

Rusty is in my shop

A LITTLE WORK AND A LOT OF DOLLIE PLAY

Ball jointed
Dollie #15
the stringing part is always
about the birth of a
doll
and very exciting

it is when hours of sculpting work
comes together

I never string until I'm completely finished
so I never really know how the doll will look when she is
strung
I suppose it is a weird way to work
but all the joints and pieces always fit perfectly


this is when she gets to pose for me

holding one of these little dolls in hand
is the reason I no longer want to
create soft sculpture

little faeries in my imagination come to life

A NEW LOVE OF TINY FASHION

The most wonderful
Christmas Present!
a hand-made wardrobe
a month ago I drew some sketches and my friend Bob of
created a dream come true
a fabulous space to display all the
Blythe Artwear

Early Spring I was bitten badly by the Blythe Bug
these adorable big-eyed cuties, have so much character
Since then I have collected and made lots of tiny fashion
Wanting to display them, I found most collectors keep the doll dresses
in a box.
But it is much more fun to display the clothing like Art
Great inspiration and imagination

Fits perfectly on my desk
where I can see everything, and continue creating tiny Fashion

If you would like a wardrobe built
convo
