Noelle, A Primitive Snowflake Doll

Meet Noelle. Noelle brings to mind the quiet, calm & incredible sparkle of fresh fallen snow. She is my original design and stands 17″ tall from tip top of her head to the bottom of her base. Noelle has been made of muslin, stuffed with fiberfill & painted & sanded many times, giving her a lovely, aged patina. Her base is rag-stuffed & bean-filled allowing her to stand nicely. She has been sealed so that she may be beautifully preserved. Noelle’s arms are lightly wired & button jointed allowing them to be gently posed. Her neck is supported with wire for durability.

Noelle’s face has been painted with a variety of media. Her nose & bottom lip have been needle-sculpted by hand. Noelle’s wee fingers have been needle-sculpted as well. She sports light tan gloves. Each “branch” of Noelle’s snowflake head has been machine-quilted & individually sewn to her head.

Noelle’s apron dress has been made from two beautiful neutrals. The underskirt is white muslin. The over skirt is textured taupe osnaburg. It is finished with two vintage, grey mother of pearl buttons at the waistline & two white mother of pearl buttons on the over skirt. Noelle’s blouse has been made of white muslin. It features puffy, hand-gathered sleeves. All exposed hems have been hand-stitched. There is also hand-stitching at the neckline of Noelle’s blouse & along the back seam. All clothing has been treated to a coffee/lavender bud bath. It was then hand-washed & pressed.

Noelle’s glistening head was first painted white then treated to crackle medium. Her head was antiqued for contrast, then glittered with vintage style glass glitter on the front & back.

Noelle carries a lovely winter swag constructed from rusty wire, rusty jingle bells, preserved sweet annie & a raffia ribbon. She’s surely ready for your wintertime celebrations!
