An old-fashioned flower garden just isn’t complete without beautiful, towering hollyhocks. This little girl will allow you to have a little old fashioned garden indoors, all year long!
Meet Holly. Holly is a little over 15 inches from head to toe. She is made in the style of a stump doll & stands on her own. Holly has been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. Her base is rag-stuffed & bean filled allowing her balance nicely. Holly has been hand-painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her such a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed so that she may be lightly dusted after display.
Holly’s face has been painted with a variety of media. Her nose & bottom lip have been needle-sculpted by hand, giving her a cute little pout. Her leafy hands have been needle-sculpted as well.
Holly’s blouse is made of white muslin. It features hand-gathered sleeves & hand-stitching around the neckline and back. It is finished off with a glass buttons at the neckline. Holly’s skirt consists of two 100% cotton prints. The hem features delicate hand-stitches.
Each of Holly’s petals were sewn separately & attached securely by hand with tiny stitches. Because each petal was sewn & turned, the edges are finished.
Holly is available on eBay. She will end May 31st at 9:15 PM EST. (Her reserve price is $100.00.) Click here to view or bid on this little girl.
I bet you know who these folks are! Little Goldilocks is 14.5 inches tall from head to toe. Her little bears are a wee 4-4.5″ tall. Goldilocks has been made of muslin & stuffed with fiberfill. She has been hand-painted & sanded a couple of times, giving her such a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed with a combination of glossy & matte sealers so that she may be lightly dusted after display. Goldi has an embroidery thread loop sewn to her back making her suitable for hanging. She can also be displayed sitting when propped up. She will not sit on her own. Her knees are sewn through making her a great shelf-sitter.
Goldi’s face has been painted with a variety of media. Her nose & bottom lip have been needle-sculpted by hand. Her hands have been needle-sculpted as well. She sports brown painted gloves. She also sports painted brown boots with tan socks & light tan laces.
Goldi’s blouse is made of white muslin. It features hand-gathered sleeves & hand-stitching around the neckline and back. It is finished off with grey, vintage mother of pearl buttons at the neckline. Goldi’s skirt is a super cute 100% cotton print in shades of blue, red, green & brown. Her hem is hand-stitched with contrasting chocolate thread.
Sometimes you just want to take your friends everywhere you go! Goldi totes hers around in this super chic, brown, 100% wool purse. It features funky, folky stitches in blue & red embroidery thread & mismatched buttons. The bears are 4-4.5″ tall. They are removable although Goldi’s purse is not.
Goldilocks’ hair is 100% honey blonde mohair. It has been applied with light glue for extra security & needle-felting. It has been ‘parted’,pulled to the side & left loose.
