It's a Dolly Day!!!

As I have been cleaning and arranging, I started to notice a theme! Dolls, Doll like objects, Dollies with bodies, Dollie heads, glass dollies, gift dollies and more. So I thought I would share them with you as they each mean something to me, even if it is just for inspiration.



I call this dolly my Michael DeMeng doll. I got the technique from his class. He is amazing for sure.


My inspiration was an Antique German Doll head I bought from Retro Cafe.

My Blythe Dollie, a gift from my niece. Love Her!!!

A great thrift store find....isn't she beautiful?

A beautiful gift from April.

I purchased this ART DOLL from Sandy. She has made some amazing art and makes great blog banners.

Isn't she cute. So Vintage!!

Another Antique German Doll head. I soldered this little "head" onto a vintage bottle, added wings and a little brass cap. I got the Antique German Doll head and Wings at Retro Cafe.

Are you seeing a theme in my dollies? Old is beautiful?

I actually bought this lady on Shop Goodwill. Even charities have websites to sell their wares these days.

It's always nice to look at everything from different sides :} This little girl is waiting for me to add her to art somehow.

Cupid dolly and someone took the time to crochet her a cute little dress.

In my younger days my sister and I tried our hand at ceramics. This piece I made and gave to my Grandpa. It's dated 1973, whew!

A different view of dolls you've seen before.

A dolly I made for my friend Bonnie for her birthday 2008.

A dollie I made in a class given by Georgia. That's me as a baby in the watch face.

This one I recently picked up because she has a "Marie Antionette" look to me and I want to make a "Marie" dolls.

Another great thrift store find.

Here's my box full of doll parts. I got them at the Irvine Flea Market and wish I had bought more :}

Beautiful piece of art made for me by Jane for my birthday, 2008. Lucky me!

Aren't these little celluiod cupids cute? A guy with a cigar and a hula skirt hmmmmm

That's not all my dollies but it's a good sampling :} How many dollies do you have? Do you have a favorite? Tell me Why.
