Poseable Victorian style Art Doll
This week I am widening my horizions, and have tried something completely new! Here I present Bess, a Victorian young lady, she sits in her favorite chair, and is wearing a vintage dressing gown. Bess is a poseable doll! I created her in a way that she would be fully poseable. She can bend at her elbows, waist, knees, and hips, so that she can be positioned in many different ways. I have added several photos of her, so that you can see how poseable she is. She is listed on ebay now. Thanks for taking the time to stop in and visit Bess. XOXO Christel I created this gown from a vintage cotton night gown I found at a thrift store! It is a very pretty light pink, and has tatted lace edges. I knew it would make Bess a perfect ensemble.Bess has been given a new lovely home in Russia! SOLD

The Alice in Wonderland Cast! A funny Birthday Story!!
These are the dolls I keep promising to show, but could not till now! These were all comissioned by a wonderful man in Germany for his special lady as a birthday gift! Wow, where was this guy when I was looking?..just kidding. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARIN!!!., here, in order as I created them are, The Mad Hatter, Alice, The White Queen, the Chesire Cat, the Red Queen, the White Rabbit, Tweetledee, and Tweetledum, the Doormouse, The March Hare, and as a special gift from me, I created the Hookah smoking Caterpillar for Karin! I hope you all love them, I had so much fun creating these dolls, and communicating with the buyer. He was a pleasure to deal with!! XOXO Christel ALL dolls pictured in this post are previously SOLD with the exception of the 1st rabbit pictured, which will be offered on ebay soon!
an added note, after I created these, I told dear Mr. Ludwig that I might recreate a few of the pieces, but not to worry, they would of course still be all original One Of A Kind, since no molds are used ect, and so I did recreate the white rabbit, only this time he was wearing a blue coat, and a different shirt and vest, and his pocket watch was a bit different as well. I also created a full base for him. Now comes the funny part, little did I know, this special lady would visit ebay, She saw the second rabbit, pictured above, and said she would like to have it, and wanted to bid on this second rabbit, all the while she was unaware that she already owned a rabbit!..long story short, she bid, and won white rabbit # 2! Of course He was so very kind, and bought it as well! We worked out a suitable comprimise, and traded another sculpt for the first rabbit, pictured in the brown leather coat, which will be offered on ebay soon! I promised to keep all the dolls a secret, but only after I had already posted Alice for a few short hours, and he messaged me with his plan of a birthday surprise! So, I very quickly stole Alice away from my blog, some of you may have seen her, I know Karin did in fact see her, and told her husband about her as well! wwhheeww am I ever glad the secrets out, and I hope Karins birthday was a huge surprise! It was a blast for me!..now I am recreating a scale size Alice, I will be posting pictures of her soon, along with Mr White Rabbit number 1!!! xoxo Christel

miss mash post..
I have a bit of everything here to post today, of course I wanted to share with you a couple of new pieces up for auction, but also, a couple photos, and a link! First we have my newest TINY>>and I mean TINY fairy, I have named her Carine, she is not even as big as my finger! Quite challenging, but I received a treasure trove of "findings" from my very dear, sweet friend Kathleen, and in this box were two of these resin horses, well, needless to say, the tiny girl was born in my mind instantly, and now here, brought to life! SOLD
Next, I have a photo of an entertainment cabinet turned display! My good friend, Kathleen, has a wonderful husband, named Bob, who has created this beatiful display cabinet for her, which houses many pieces she has collected from me!
And last, but certainly not least, is a link to a great friends blog, and her newest endeavor! This vintage looking tiny bear is adorable! please visit Angela, and Sammy!
