First Atticbabys© Doll for 2012

2012-01-11T15:14:00.000-08:00

Paint? Artist's pencils? which to use? Why not both at the same time?
That is exactly what I did and like the effect it has created.
Playing around with different mediums.. my idea of fun!!! ;-)
She is now getting limbs attached.
I am selecting a few antique dresses and shoes
for her to choose from as well! (her idea of fun, LOL)

Yet another Queen Anne ,,,,

2011-11-20T17:05:00.000-08:00

A blonde this time!
This one has such an innocence about her... almost child-like.
I gave her a younger style dress to match her
youthful personality.

My Christmas Offerings

2011-11-29T14:53:00.000-08:00

I of course had to create another Edward Tulane for Christmas with the many requests I've had I just could not refuse!
And I was even able to finish up this Winter White Santa as a challenge that the MAIDA doll group I belong to is having!!

And on a personal note,,,I recently received the only Christmas gift I wished for this year! My soldier boy is now on safe soil and should be coming home soon!!!
I have so very much to be thankful for this year!

Seasons Greetings to ALL and thanks for stopping by!!!!

Poor Edward was just so excited to receive his pocket watch today and wanted to show it off to her,,,
He too will be on Ebay in a couple of days!! Stay tuned!

WIP for today! Queen Anne doll in Cloth

2011-10-11T08:55:00.000-07:00

Its so hard to stay inside on these beautiful fall days we've been having, but I forced myself to get started on another of my cloth Queen Annes. Here is a shot of her face. I'm holding off on "aging" her cuz I kinda like the almost flawless look she has going on.... Knowing me though, I'll have to grubby her up some, LOL !

Thanks for stopping by!

A welcome mistake! My first Teddy Bebe!

2011-10-06T16:02:00.000-07:00

The short story is "I messed up", LOL! I am happy with the end result of my error though! So much so that I am going to start making some more of these wee darlin's . I've decided to call them "Teddy Bebes"!
I just love old teddies and of course you know how much I love old dollies, sooooo what better way to mix the two?!
She/he will be up for adoption on Ebay this Sunday.

UPDATE: I've decided to list him in my Picturetrail (see side bar) SOLD!!

It is such a lovely story and I hope you will take the time to read for yourself or a child.

lil' Milliner's Model

2011-08-10T15:43:00.000-07:00

arely fits in the palm of my hand! This replica of an antique Milliner's Model Doll would look so darling in a dollhouse or tucked in a cupboard don't you think?
I really like how her body turned out.... it is a complicated design so I wasn't sure I could pull it off at only 5 inches to work with!

The Miraculaous Journey of Edward Tulane doll

2008-12-23T09:37:00.000-08:00

My best friend since the 5th grade, lent me one of her most cherished children's books,("The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane") and I must say it moved me in more ways than I thought possible. It is the sweetest story about a favorite, spoiled toy rabbit learning to love, and to appreciate the ones who love him. Do yourself a favor and find this book to read and pass along. I think children would really benefit from it too.
Of course I just had to bring him to life ,...may I introduce, Mr. Edward Tulane !

2010-03-26T12:11:00.000-07:00

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

An odd pair

2010-12-13T05:05:00.000-08:00

ooks pleasant enough right? A nice little moment between Edward Tulane and the Queen???....... but if you look closely you will see that she is actually in the act of pick pocketing poor Ed's watch! I don't believe he minded much as he has become quite smitten with her... Luckily, I was there to put a stop to this crime in progress!

2011-03-31T08:02:00.000-07:00

Another adventure for Edward,,, and just in time for spring! It is his favorite time of year. This is most likely because the book, ("The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane") in which he is the title character of, is a lovely story about rebirth. If you haven't already,,, may I recommend you read this book to your children... '' you won't be disappointed...
I'm getting some finishing touches done and than will be listing him on Ebay, Monday Evening on Apr. 4, so be on the look out for this oh so handsome, debonair rabbit!
Spring Blessings to all!!!!

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

2010-05-13T21:21:00.000-07:00

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

more cherub-like, rounder cheeked Queen Anne.
She is actually 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!

2011-03-01T08:31:00.000-08:00

MARCH already???!!! Where does the time go????!!!
My computer recently decided it does not want to cooperate and I've had to use my husband's! Getting pictures loaded onto this is whole other matter all together! But I did manage to get 1 and wanted to share a peek of her. I hope to be able to get more photos taken and possibly even getting her ready for adoption by Thursday... (fingers crossed)!
