Charity, an Angel Guaranteed to add a little Glimmer to your Holiday Season!

November 3, 2009 By Rebecca Leave a Comment

Charity is one of two Christmas tree toppers I am now offering! She’ll add the perfect touch of whimsy to the tip top of your Christmas tree. Charity is a half-torso doll built on a paper mache cone. Her dress extends 4-5? past the cone. When displayed on your tree, Charity will be 16-17? tall. Charity can also be displayed on a table BUT she would have to be perched atop a candlestick, spool, small box or any other way you can think of to give her dress a little height. (For instance, she is perched upon an decorative vase in the photo above.)

Charity has been made with the same level of detail as my regular dolls. Her nose, lip & hands have been needle-sculpted & her dress features tons of hand-stitching! She’s been hand-painted & sealed & features glass glitter wings which are attached with a button.

Although Charity will not come with a Certificate of Authenticity & is not numbered, she has a Miller Campbell Designs label attached to her cone & has been signed.

Charity can be purchased here.

Here comes Santa Claus, Here comes Santa Claus!

This sweet fellow comes bearing gifts no child could resist!

I know that this gentleman needs no introduction! Beloved by folks both young & old, this little guy is guaranteed to pull at your heartstrings! Santa stands approximately 18.5″ tall from the tip of his sweet annie wreath to his base. He’s been made of muslin & is stuffed with fiberfill in the style of a stump doll. He has no legs & is free-standing. His base is rag-stuffed & lightly weighted for stability. Santa’s been hand-painted & sanded a couple of times, giving him a lovely, aged patina. He’s been sealed so that he may be lightly dusted after display. His arms are button jointed allowing them to be slightly posed.

Santa’s face has been painted with a variety of media. His nose & bottom lip have been needle-sculpted by hand, giving his face a great bit of dimension. He has needle-sculpted hands as well.

Santa’s undergarment is made made of taupe osnaburg. It features a hand-stitching at the neckline, sleeves & hem. Santa’s coat is sewn from deep red velveteen. It features hand-stitching along the hem & is edged with vintage crochet trim.
Santa wears a sweet annie half-wreath on his head. Deep red beads are nestled in the sweet annie sprigs.

Santa carries a bag made from brown wool & tied with a sheer brown bow. Tucked inside the bag are some very special treats, including a vintage-style stick horse & a tiny doll inspired by vintage Kewpie dolls. All of Santa’s goodies have been made from muslin & have been hand-painted sanded & sealed. The stick horse measures 7″ tall while the little Kewpie measures a wee 6″.
