Young Queen Anne Doll


A more cherub-like, rounder cheeked Queen Anne.
She is really a toddler but prefers to be treated
as a baby,,,
so I went with it,, all the way, and even dressed her in bonnet and
simple empire waist gown.
Growing up should never be rushed!! It will happen soon enough! Trust me!

Message in a bottle! Alice's Adventure began without me!


W ell we arrived home safe and sound from our amazing trip to Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri!
( A big THANKYOU to all who left encouraging messages while away... You just don't know how much they meant to me!!!) I will share more about the trip and ceremony later.... it requires a whole post all to itself. I just want to wait til my soldier boy is not within hugging distance. He is my priority at the moment, and gladly! :-)


While away, we left poor Alice all on her lonesome and on our return, we found her holding a glass bottle with a handwritten note saying "drink me" . Hmmmmm, since it appears to be empty I can assume she did as told and well the rest is history (so to speak).
You can see her on Ebay Sunday Evening!
She'd love you to visit her there! to do so, Click Here

Tsk Tsk, shame shame!

O ver a month since my last post!!!??? How did this happen? Just busy with life really. Went to Florida for part of it, which was so lovely and oh so relaxing! Now preparing to leave this Monday for Missouri to pick up my son. He just finished basic training at Fort Leonard Wood and is coming home for a couple of weeks, than off to Fort Hood!!!! I'm so excited to see him and could not be more proud.




(Here's me looking off our balcony - quite the view, yes?)



But I have not neglected my doll-making entirely. I've been wanting to create another "Alice in Wonderland" for some time now.... and with the movie just out (which i still have not seen btw), was the much needed inspiration.



When we get back on the 8th of May I hope to get her finished and listed on Ebay.

Sure hope ya'll are having a beautiful and productive spring!!!!!

Edward Tulane doll just in time for Easter!



Y ou would think with such a fancy pocket watch that Edward could
be a little more punctual!!! Well I must admit that it is not all
his fault,,, I might have had something to do with.
Anyway he will be on Ebay this Evening for a 5 day auction
so that he can arrive in time for Easter Sunday (if he doesn't
lose his watch in meantime that is)LOL

Dolls enjoy dollhouses too!!!



wee bit of a thing here, 6.5" to be exact.... I love all things mini and I'll bet that is why I cannot get enough of these dollhouse sized Izzys. I have a collection of mini paper houses and this one is a copy from my original... She happens to have claimed it for her very own. Of course I was not able to say "no" to that face !
