Charlotte Folk Art Vintage style Little Girl Doll







I am doing the HaPpY DaNcE this morning..


I just sold my little girl. http://www.thehumblearts.comFunny though for some reason


I really fell in love with my little Charlotte.
I didn't think she would sell really ,
I am so happy she did, but I am kinda sad to see her leave,

People say well just make another, but that's not true!
just like each child you have they are all unique and one of a kind,

There is NO replacing them..
But on the other hand a person who buys must like/love your creation also or they would'nt buy!!.

Have you all every felt this way about one of your creations??

It's awesome she sold, but on the other hand it is so sad to see her leave,

I just had to share Charlotte with you all before she leaves for her new home..

Folk Art Vintage style Little Girl Doll
Charlotte, 19 inches and She is one of a kind, Charlotte is my own original design, She is a little girl of yesteryear, Dressed in a old fashion Victorian style. Her dress is edged with lace and ribbon. Match bow for her hair. Painted and antiqued muslin, Stuffed firmly Hand needle stitched fingers. I have hand painted her arms and hands, then I have antique them , this gives her a vintage look , She is so soft to touch. Lace at her neck line also on the hem of her sleeves.
Her stocking are striped with hand painted boots, Pantaloons have hand stitched vintage lace. I just love her fat little legs, She has such a nice feel about her, Her dress is very full just like little girls

Charlotte's face is hand painted and antique to give her a vintage look,and sealed to be handed down for generations. Her hair is hand felted Mohair, Charlotte's eyes are a beautiful green

one of a kind tag, I created this tag and hand painted the Victorian women's face and dress and also aged the tag

Sherrie, she is a true beauty- one of the nicest dolls you've made, I think. I just love her sweet face and I can see why she is difficult to part with. I felt that way about the Mathilda I made last year. The one dressed in blue. Sometimes there is just something...
