I made this
bride doll for a grand daughter when she was young. It is about
14 inches tall. When the grand daughter grew up, it was used
in her Bridal showers.
|
I painted
the flesh and hair with a special paint, on the greenware, and
high fired it to porcelain.
|
The hat
is removable and her bridal bouquet is hand made.
|
I made this
bride & groom for another grand daughter's wedding shower.
It has been used several times by others by just changing the
silk flower bouquet.
|
When this
doll came out of the kiln, it had numerous cracks in the ribbon
at the back. I just made more roses, stuck them on over the cracks,
refired and it fixed it.

This cutie
is only 4 inches tall. It was a challenge sewing her clothes
and gluing on her hair one curl at a time.

I entered
these trick or treat kids in a doll show on the display on the
right. They didn't win.

 |
This baby
and the one below were made with the same mold. They can be made
to look so different with hair color & dress. I sometimes
use these dolls in the bow on baby gifts in the family.

 |
This is
a different mold. There are 4 in the set. They are all so real
looking

His suit
was a challenge to crochet. Notice his golf club. I bought it
in the miniature isle.
|
This doll
is about 2 inches tall and displayed in a crocheted egg.
|
 |
This baby
is about 1 1/2 inches tall. The carriage is a Christmas ornament.
|
This carriage
is also a Christmas ornament.
|
The doll
is about 2 inches tall.
|
This is
my cute little Shirley Temple doll. She is about 4 inches tall.
I crocheted her dress with very tiny thread while I sat with
my aged mother a few years ago.
|
This doll
is a "Popet doll". She can be posed in many ways. I
made several like the one behind her and dressed them all differently.
It is a challenge sewing by hand for these small dolls, but lots
of fun.
|
These next
two dolls are pouty little things. She is 6 inches tall, but
was still a challenge to sew for. I smocked her dress and made
her a beaded purse to match the dress.
|
He is about
5 inches tall.

I won a
blue ribbon at a doll show with this display. The little girl
holds a flower while the boy holds a frog.
|
This one
is one of about a dozen bell molds which make ornaments. She
is about 5 inches tall.
|
These are
2 inch dolls I have painted. They are ready to be dressed. I
make tiny panties for under their dresses.
|
These boy
& girl twins are sweet and old fashioned.
