NEW DESIGN SNEAK PEAK

My new design

perfect for my

French Faeries

ball jointed style

still working on hair-do

booties

the hip joint works great for the

stocking look

she of course had to have a Pug

dress and wings next!

EARL THE ORANGE STEALER

I live off the back of a farm

an old orange grove, now no longer worked because of too many freezes

The cows roam freely

and eat whatever oranges they can reach off the trees

most only have some fruit at the top

but up near the fence one lone orange tree

was loaded with fruit

this big male cow crashed the fence and had a banquet

I yelled out to my husband

"Honey" there is a cow in the yard!

so off I went to find the farmer to corral his cow

with a little coaxing Earl got back on the right side of the fence

and the fence post was fixed

I guess it was yummy he cleaned off the tree

Pretty exciting stuff for a city girl like me

all these photos were taken with a zoom, no way was I getting that close to

Earl

WIP NEW BJD

TINY GLOWING PRINCESS

Another freezing night in Florida

brought more faeries to the

Inn on the Grove

to escape the frost and be cozy and warm

until the morning sunshine

beamed across the farmland

a tiny glowing Princess got comfortable on the velvet couch

while an Elfin Fae, waited to present her with a basket of

sweet wild flowers

on the upstairs balcony

birds tweeted a morning song

faeries wiped away the sleep and emerged into the warm sun

Tiny little Princess

is a 6 inch ball jointed doll

DOLL DREAMS

As a Artist I often dream of Art Work before I create it

but I have not had a dream of dolls in a long time

Before dawn I awoke and started drawing

and cutting and sewing

I was obsessed!

For months I have tried to stay away from Soft Sculpture

almost 40 years of this kind of art has taken a toll on my hands.

But I am having a hard time putting down the needle

I dreamed of a soft rag doll, almost completely sewed on the machine

the stuffing is very soft and almost floppy

and this is what happened

a sweet little fairy

with a cartooned face

best part my hands don't hurt!

She reminds me of the rag dolls I had as a child

always my favorites

they could be hugged,

carried around,

taken to bed to hear stories

and they would not break

a touchable little fairy doll

that a child could play with

created from fuzzy PJ knit

with cotton fairy frost wings

fat yarn hair

and a removable dress

because faeries like to dance

naked!

Perfect for Valentines Day

I will put several in my shop

this month
