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!!

Primitive bunny riding a snail ! and snail with grubby battery tea light

Hi everyone , Here's what I have been working on ! Sir Hopsalot and his galliant steed and Chester .
Sir Hopsalot is on his way to rescue his " hare princess" from the evil clutches of the coyote. He is accompanied by his noble steed ( the snail) and has his carrot sword drawn. Sir Hopsalot and snail are about 23.5" tall and has a tag that reads " ...And so Sir Hopsalot and his galliant steed rode through the night to battle the evil coyote and to rescue his hare princess. " I think he's just adorable and hope you will think so too .

Chester is a smitten snail , he is carrying flowers and his love to the snail of his dreams. I wrote a short verse for his tag and it reads " Though the trail may be tedious and the travel may be slow, I'll bring my love to you my dear, No matter where you go." Chester has a grubby tea lite on his back to help light the way. He is a selfsitter and is weighted. Chester is about 11" H x 12"W.

Prim doll " Nurse Gertie "

Hello every one, This is the Nurse doll I was talking about in my last post, Her name is Nurse Gertie and she is carrying her rolls of bandages to the sick and wounded. Gerties tag reads "Nurses are angels in disguise" she has cheese cloth wings, rusty bell eyes, and is holding 2 rolls of bandages. Her right arm is positionable to a certain point ( it meets her wing in the back) . She is wearing an Osnaburg muslin skirt that has been stained and her top is painted and cinnamon incrusted along with the rest of her body. The thing I love most about Gertie is her wrinkles , she has a pinched mouth and nose and these great "character lines" coming down from the corners of her mouth, I must admit these were not intentional but they turned out to be my favorite part of her. Gertie is about 15" tall. Part of the proceeds from her auction will go to earthquake relief in Haiti, so she will be listed tomorrow for 3 days only, because I am sure that they need relief now , not later. Thanks for reading, Make sure to check her out on Ebay! I must apologize for the underline..I can't get it to go away :(

I promise , There are things coming....

Hi everyone , I just got on here to apologize for not having posted anything new lately, We have had some serious weather lately and our water lines have been frozen, so I have been busy carrying water from the well ( some of us still have those..lol ) to wash clothes and bath the kids and all of that good stuff. I finally got them thawed today, by the grace of God and a long handled spoon, So I should be back to posting in a couple of days, I still have some washing to catch up on ..with all these young'ins it piles up fast. I am working on a nurse doll that will be posted here and on Ebay on the same day, Part of the proceeds will go to earthquake relief in Haiti, I do believe that it will be the first in a series of dolls that I am going to call " The Unseen Angels" so keep watch for her in the coming week. I also wanted to say a quick Thank you to all of you who have left me such wonderful feedback on Ebay...believe me it is greatly appreciated! I need to go get my washing finished so I can get back to my dolls, Night to all and God Bless!

Here are a few more bowl fillers for you folks to check out...Oh yeah and our cat Skidmark..She has apparently taken a liking to my old rocking chair..lol. As you can tell one of the hearts are different than the others . The 3 with the flowers are made from a print material and have a grubby coating and each one has a tag they read " Heart" "Love" &"Kiss Me" I made these for Valentines day but they could be used year round . The tallest is about 7" tall.

The Crosses say "Jesus" in 3 differant languages ( English, Greek , & Hebrew) I would have like to have done one in Aramaic so that I would have had all 3 of the original biblical languages but alas Aramaic is a difficult language to find translations for. The crosses are around 9" Tall.
The Easter eggs say "Easter" in 5 differant languages ( Arabic, Hindi, German, Spanish, and Italian) Each egg is made from 3 different fabrics stitched together and the words are painted on, the whole egg has a grubby coating, they are various sizes but the largest is about 5.5" tall. I am still working on some dolls and hope to post more this week weather promitting .
I will be posting all of the bowl fillers to Ebay on Sunday along with Sisal as long as my internet connection holds out, Thanks for looking!
