Meet Simonette, Emma and the Seamstress : )

I hope you all had a truly wonderful Holiday!! Thank you soooo much for all the kind words and well wishes. I cannot tell you how much your words were APPRECIATED!!! If I didn't get back to you personally, please forgive me, I am just getting caught up and trying to get some kind of painting/creating schedule going with our new little one.
This is Simonette...
I found an old light bulb cage for her skirt which I just adore!
More vintage lace, buttons and porcelain doll arms.
And, this is little Emma. Another old, wooden salt shaker body.

This is a re purposed pin keep. She was pretty beat up so I entirely re-painted her and I think she turned out pretty sweet. : )
She is a rather large pin keep measuring 7" X 3". That's a lot of pins.
And, finally, The Seamstress.

All of my new pieces (except for Simonette) are available in my etsy shop HERE.
Again, thank you for your visits.
I'm enjoying a lot of time in my rocking chair just holding the little guy and staring at his sweet face.
But the brushes keep calling me so visit again soon. : )

  6. I am so impresed Julie, you are truly a 'supermum'.

    But don't go thinking that you have to do everything at once, there is plenty of time, don't wear yourself out trying to do too much. I'm talking as one who knows..

    By the way....How are the lovely young men in your life? Good as gold, as my mum would have said, I'm sure.

  8. Julie, your dolls have so much detail and beauty. I had to keep looking at the first one because her face almost looked carved, your shading looks so real on her. Now, I KNOW you added a nose to the last one because I could see it from the side. A perfect nose at that, just love her! The crackle is so perfect too! LOve the nose on her.
