A Sweet Easter Bunny Sure to Brighten Your Spring.

February 25, 2009 By Rebecca 2 Comments

Meet Moll. This little girl has been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. She measures a little over 14″ from those sweet ears down to those cutesy boots. Moll has been painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed with a combination of glossy & matte sealers so that she may be lightly dusted after display. Her knees have been sewn through. She comes with a loop attached to her back making her suitable for hanging although Moll can sit with assistance (if propped).

Moll’s face has been painted with a variety of media. Her nose has been needle-sculpted by hand. Her little paws have been needle-sculpted as well. She sports brown painted gloves. She also sports painted brown boots with tan locks & taupe laces.

Moll’s blouse is made of taupe osnaburg. It has such great texture! It features hand-gathered sleeves & hand-stitching around the neckline and back. It is finished off with huge, vintage, mother of pearl button at the neckline. Her apron dress consists of two beautiful 100% cotton prints. The hems feature hand-stitching in a chocolate brown thread. I’ve attached vintage mother of pearl buttons to the skirt for added detail.

Moll will be available on Ebay tonight beginning at 9:15 PM EST. (Link will not be active until that time.) She will end March 1 at 9:15 PM EST. Click here to make this little sugar yours.

Where’s the Art?

February 23, 2009 By Rebecca 1 Comment

I guess you may be wondering where the art is? It’s kind of unusual for me to go 2 Sundays without posting something new. The last two weeks have been pretty busy. We did lots of traveling week before last which prevented getting a dolly finished. Then as soon as we got home, I was struck with the most amazing sinus/ear/holy crap I’m staying in bed – infection.

Since I’ve not had an ear ache since I was a kid (and that’s been a while ago), I had forgotten how bad an earache hurts. Thankfully, with the help of those amazing little things called antibiotics, I’m on the mend.

So.

I had an in-process dolly who’s been naked this whole time that I’ve been down. As soon as I get her some new clothes, I’ll have some pics. She’ll be available on eBay Tuesday evening.

And this week is jam-packed with a little game I like to call catch-up. So more new art will arrive shortly!

La La, an Easter Lamb sure to make your Heart Squeal.

February 9, 2009 By Rebecca 4 Comments

This sweet lady is La La. And she is as gentle as she looks. La La’s been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. She measures 14 tall from head to toe. La La can only sit with assistance or can hang as she has a hemp loop attached to her back. La La’s knees are sewn through. She’s been hand-painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed with matte varnish with UV filter to ensure her longevity.

La La’s face has been painted with a variety of media. Her ears have been quilted by hand. She sports painted brown boots with tan socks & mustard yellow laces.

La La’s blouse has been made from white muslin. It features hand-gathered sleeves & hand-stitching around the neckline & back. It is finished off with a vintage mother of pearl button. Her colorful apron skirt is made out of a 100% cotton print! The hem features hand-stitching in a contrasting brown thread. La La’s blouse was treated to a lavender bud/coffee bath for a slightly aged appearance. It was then hand-washed & pressed.
