I have new dollies listed on Etsy. They’re super cute if I do say so myself. And to celebrate Cyber Monday, all items listed in my Etsy shop are 15% off. I’ll refund the discount after your purchase has been made through Paypal. The party will last through Tuesday–12 AM EST.
Here’s a few of the cuties you’ll see on Etsy.
Thanks for looking!
I apologize if you’re scared of clowns. However, I don’t think this little girl will send a shiver down your spine.
Meet Starla. She’s quite the talent! This little juggler is a muslin & fiberfill creation. She stands 17″ tall. Her lower torso is rag-stuffed & lightly weighted so that she stands nicely. She’s made in the style of a stump doll & has no legs. Her arms are button jointed.
Starla’s nose, bottom lip & hands have been needle-sculpted by hand for a great bit of dimension & the cutest pout. She’s been hand-painted top to bottom a couple of times & has been aged to perfection!
Her blouse is constructed from muslin while her apron dress is constructed from vintage fabric that is so sweetly faded & super soft. Starla’s blouse boasts a fancy, hand-made tissue paper pom pom which is wired & sewn in place.
Starla’s four pink balls, which she so delicately balances in mid-air are paperclay over styrofoam creations. They’ve been hand-painted, aged & sealed. They’re attached to rusty wire which is attached to her hands.
Her hair is brown mohair. It has been applied with light glue for extra stability & needle-felting. It’s been pulled to the side & left slightly loose.
Starla is currently available in my Etsy shop.

| This sweet little girl is Lumina. If you’ve seen my previous dolls, you’ll know that this dolly is a little different than the dolls I normally create. Lumina is a 12″ tall doll created of paperclay, fabric & paper mache cone. Her head and torso have been sculpted by hand without the use of any molds. She has a paper mache cone as a base. She has no legs. Her arms are made of muslin, have been stuffed, painted & are button jointed. Lumina has been hand-painted top to bottom a couple of times & has such a lovely, aged patina. She’s been sealed so that she may be lightly dusted after display. |

| Lumina’s sweet face has been painted with a variety of media. Her paperclay face has lots of dimension & a great little pout (similar to my fabric dollies!) Her stem is accented with tendrils made of rusty wire. |
  |
| Her skirt has been created from a 100% cotton print in a lovely black & cream pattern. The hem has been hand-stitched. |

Lumina is available on Ebay. She will end Sunday, July 25th at 9:15 Pm EST. Click here to view or bid. |
