This is "Mr Lincoln at rest" He has his coat , boots and jacket off and is relaxing with his cat, (the first cat in the whitehouse) Tabby. Mr. Lincoln is holding a ruty nail flag post with a long , grubby flag on it. His flag drapes down across his top hat which sits between his legs and holds his grubby tealite. Mr. Lincoln is about 44" tall and comes with a fact sheet about Abe Lincoln and his love of animals., and some Lincoln quotes. Mr Lincoln will make his debut on Ebay soon so watch for him!! SOLD

I've been Busy..Busy ..Busy... Lots of new prim things!!



Well Folks here are some of the things I have been working on lately....I am going to break my new dolls up into two posts . First there is "FALINA" She is a Mother's Day cat doll . She is wearing an old fashioned print on her skirt and an antiqued lace collar with button. She is holding her sweet newborn kitten, who is swaddled in grungy cheese cloth and fastened with a rusty pin. Falina and her kitten are made from a rough wooly fabric and then stained and cinnamon baked. Falina is about 22.5" tall and can sit when proped or be hung. SOLD
Next there come "Piddlywigs (bear) and Wadsley(eagle)" These two will be auctioned together...because they look so cute together.
Piddlywigs is my West Virginia Black Bear , He doesn't just love W.V. though he loves the whole country! He is wearing his flag for everyone to see , it is roughly stitched around the edges and has a rusty bell on a pin at each end, The stars are white buttons. Piddlywigs' eyes are also buttons and his nose is pinched . His tie is made from a singed oil lamp wick. He is about 12" tall.
Wadsley is a very patriotic eagle. He carries his long, skinny flag whereever he goes. He is pearched atop his stick and comes with a wooden base. Wadsley is one sided , so he only faces to the left. He is about 15" tall.
The last thing I have to post in this section is a set of two ticking stars, one is red and says " Freedom" on a piece of osnaburg stitched to the front. Below the osnaburg there is a rusty bell fastened to the star with a rusty pin. The other star is decorated pretty much the same way except that it is made from blue ticking insted of red and the osnaburg patch says "1776". These stars are about 10.5"-11" tall. SOLD

I will be starting a new set of auctions on April 18 , 2010. Make sure to check out my post for the Ebay auction drawing for Adelina on April, 17, 2010. And my other posts...

New prims! OOAK dolls Burnadette and Ma Whiskers....Plus info on my free doll drawing





Hello everyone! I have been terribly busy
and apologize for not having posted more lately. Here's what I have been working on!

Burnadette is a girl of faith, she is wearing her cross necklace and holding her favorite bunny. Burnadette is about 18"h X 10"w, She is cute sitting but she is NOT a self sitter. Burnadette also comes with a rusty pin hanger so that she can be hung (this can be easily removed if you don't need it.)

Ma Whiskers is a self sitter . She has twig whiskers and mouth that have been crudely stitched in , a pinched nose, and rusty jinglebell eyes. I absolutely love her so I just might make a Pa Whiskers too....maybe even a baby Whiskers..who knows. The tag on her collar says " Ma Whiskers" and she is wearing her cheese cloth shawl proudly. Ma is about 15.5" tall with a huge 10"wide head.
On another note , I have ordered a printer and postal scales, which means better shipping rates for all of my Ebay customers and less post office trips so hopefully I will have time to make more! WHooooHooo! I will be posting several items to Ebay this week, some of which are posted here and some of the smaller items haven't been posted here so check them out! Also I have decided to do a drawing for Adellina the ballerina, for each purchase made you will be entered into the drawing to recieve Adellina for free ( you can see her in my older posts) The conteset will begin today and end on April 17, 2010. Winner will be posted here on April 18th. Keep checking back ! Have a blessed day!!
