Visit Maureen at I Like Making Things.
I just completed Evangeline, one of Dana Burton's 1:12 scale doll kits I'm enamored with. She was to have been a sad fairy.....but she came unglued and toppled off the top of the polymer clay mushroom, so I had to go to Plan B. Plan B? Hmmmmmm......a dilemma. She obviously wasn't meant to be my sad fairy. Sifting through a tub of material, I found the most beautiful peach silk - and here she is!
Evangeline - 3.75 inches from the tip of her Victorian Boots to the top of her head
The buttons on her boots are gold microbeads
The wee-little Teddy Bear is hand felted (not by me), 1/2 inch tall and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity
And now there's Mathe - part of Dana's "Romantic Royals" collection. I made the throne myself. That actually took longer than putting Mathe together. Hair and other embellishments yet to come.

Stephanie who blogs over at The Enchanting Rose is hosting a teacup exchange. Please note: a blog is not necessary to participate. Pop on over and read about it - sign up if you're interested. I did - of course, I'm a sucker for anything related to tea. Entries close on September 21st.
I'm so glad Evangeline isn't sad! Of course, it's hard to stay unhappy when you're hugging a teddy bear. I'm sure Maureen is wearing her bracelet and having happy thoughts, too!
ReplyDeleteLove the bracelet!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad #41 arrived and lovely assortment for Maureen. What a sweet Evangeline and a very regal Royal.
ReplyDeleteThe bracelet you made is stunning! Evangeline is darling. And the throne for Mathe is fabulous. You are so incredibly talented!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bracelet and Evangeline is beautiful too, so cute hugging her teddy.
ReplyDeleteWow - such detail on such tiny "dolls"! Works of art is more like it! I can't even imagine felting something a half-inch high but the teddy is adorable. I'm off to check on the tea cup exchange...
ReplyDelete#41 is fabulous and bet Maureen is enjoying her goodies. Evangeline is precious and Mathe is very regal.
ReplyDeleteLove your miniature dolls. I was gifted with three store front kits that need to be assembled. I can't decide what type of stores I want to create:)
ReplyDeleteOh what a gorgeous bracelet! What a precious, little girl!♥
ReplyDeleteI'm looking at the chair Mathe is sitting on, do you make the props yourself? It's so prettily decorated with lace.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! The bracelet is truly stunning! And the miniature doll won my heart...what a sweetie :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for promoting the tea cup exchange. Please know that I greatly appreciate it, dear Kim. I am so glad you're joining the fun! Sweet hugs to you!
Lovely gifts!! Your dolls are so beautiful!! :) I cannot make anything so complicated.
ReplyDeleteYour artistic talents know no bounds, I am constantly amazed by al you do. The little, tiny doll is really incredible. You must have quite a collection at your home now of such lovely things. x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Those dolls are simply amazing! I'm happy that RAK#41 made it safely, such beautiful gifts. Looking forward to seeing more! Happy Stitching! http://christiescrossstitchcreations.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteGlad another RAK arrived safely :)
ReplyDeleteThis is Maureen and the bracelet is totally amazing. I love it. I started on the felting kit too, I had never seen this type of work before and I can tell you that after a busy day it is an great stress reliever. I get to poke a sharp barbed needle in and out a thousand times into the felt to get it to make a shape. It is such fun, nearly finished the little penguin.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, she's so sweet! You did a wonderful job with Plan B :D
ReplyDeleteLovely presents for Maureen and you did a great job on Evangeline. Gorgeous throne for Mathe and I cannot wait to see her with hair on!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Thanks for the link to the teacup swap - I have joined up to do both a teacup and a mug.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing colllection of miniatures you have! Very lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe bracelet you made for Maureen is very pretty. Evangeline is lovely. I hadn't really thought about the size of her until I saw her next to the can of drink. Hugs, Christine xx
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how small Evangeline is! She looks like she was meant for that chair - definitely not a sad fairy!
ReplyDeleteLovely gifts for Maureen too.
Another lovely RAK and it sounds like you chose the perfect present for Maureen too.
ReplyDeleteEvangeline is beautiful and seems much happier with her teddy and a comfortable chair!
