Pumpkins, Witches, Butterflies, Pugs and Mushrooms…New Work on Etsy

I just listed a few of my brand spanking new pieces in my Etsy shop. These guys are fresh off the work table and would be so happy with a new home for fall.

Here they are: (Click the first photo below to be taken to the corresponding listing in my Etsy shop. And if you don’t shop on Etsy and don’t wish to open an account, but would like one of these dolls, just contact me. )

“Becca”

This little lady’s name might seem a little familiar. When I began sculpting her, I had a very different vision in mind. As I kept sculpting, I could “see” a very different doll taking shape. I decided to follow that path and file the other idea away for another sculpting session. The more I sculpted this doll, making decisions about clothing and her hat, I realized that, in a way, I was sculpting a self portrait–the person I would be if I were a woodland fairy. Not that she looks like me…but she feels like me.

And so, I named this doll “Becca”.

Sculpted Works in Process…

Abra….a Witchy Bust Doll Now on eBay.

This little magical lady is now listed on eBay. Yep, her name is Abra…(not Abracadabra, just Abra…you wouldn’t want to cast a spell every time you say her name now would you?!) She’s a new style of doll for me. I’ve been tossing the idea of creating a ‘bust’ style doll back & forth for a while now. Her torso is completely fabric…no paint, while her head is my typical needle-sculpted, hand-painted style of doll head. She features my signature needle-sculpted nose & lip & has such a beautiful, warm vintage patina.

Abra’s torso is rag-stuffed & lightly weighted so that she ‘stands’ nicely & evenly. The rag-stuffing gives her such an old-timey feel. She wears a little tulle collar & flaunts vintage black buttons along her torso. Her witch hat will be pinned in place with corsage pins. The brim is wired so that it may be posed any way you like.

Abra’s cute little red pigtails are 100% mohair. They’ve been needle-felted in place.

Abra has been listed on eBay. She ends Sunday Aug. 28th at 9:15 PM EST. Click here to view or bid on this little lady! Just don’t blame me when the magic starts flying!
