A Little Troublemaker

I've been so excited about making this doll.
I guess I'm just a sucker for bright colors. :)

Meet Jinx!

 

Jinx is a bit of a wild child.
 

 She's really not bad at heart.

 She tries to be good...but it's just so much more fun causing trouble.

 

Jinx has already found herself a new home!

(I should've known I wouldn't be able to keep a wild one around for long.)

Marnie, the sweet little redhead

Whew, I've been finishing up these little dolls left and right lately!
It'll all end soon...don't have many more pre-prepared dolls left.
(And you guys were thinking I was just that fast all of a sudden...ha!)

Here's the newest girl!

This is Marnie.

 Marnie is a dreamer.

She loves myths and legends.

 

She often pretends she's a princess, waiting patiently for her prince.

Marnie is now in the shop!

A Newly Designed Glove Monster

I was determined to finish the last few dolls on my desk before letting the monsters wreak havoc, but this little guy somehow slipped out!

 

I've always loved the glove monsters.

They're cute and little (my favorite combo!)

This guy is about 6.5 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide (counting his arms).

 

I've been wanting to change the look of the glove monsters to reflect my style a little better.

I think I've finally figured out how to do it!

What do you guys think of the new look?

 

I have a feeling he's going to have many siblings in the near future...

 

This little guy is in the shop!

Lyric the Musician

Meet the newest Secret Keeper...Lyric!

 

Lyric is a laid back girl.
She loves music of all types.

 

One day, she hopes to be a great musician.
She practices every day with the hope that she'll fulfill her dream.

 

Lyric is looking for a new home in the shop!

 

Just three more Secret Keeper dolls to complete...after that, I'm pretty sure I'll no longer be able to hold back the impending monster invasion.

Good thing the monsters around here are nice!

The Newest Addition, Paddy Cake!

Meet little Miss Paddy Cake!

 

Paddy is a sweet, inquisitive little girl.
She loves to talk, and she loves to ask questions.

 

She tends to do both almost nonstop.
She can't help it that she's so curious about everything.

 

Luckily, she's so cute, it's hard to get annoyed with her.

 

 

 

 

Paddy Cake will be listed in the shop at some point today!

The Shop is Finally Open!!

Just a quick update for you all...

I've finally opened my etsy shop!
You can visit it here.

There's just a few listings for now.
I have five more Secret Keeper dolls in progress that I'll be adding over the next couple of weeks.
They'll each get their own individual posts here.

If you want to stay up to date with my works in progress, come join me on Facebook!

My Elf on the Shelf, Miss Elle Towe

I'd like to introduce you to Miss Elle Towe.
She says you can just call her Elle.

 

Her whole life, Elle has been a toymaker in Santa's workshop (except for that brief and very embarrassing period where she tried to be a reindeer whisperer).

 

This year Santa decided to give her a shot at the highly desired position of Shelf Elf.

She's really hoping she'll make Santa proud!

Elle is about 11 inches tall. She has a wire frame so she can hold all sorts of fun poses.
This was the first time I've made a doll with a wire skeleton...and it certainly won't be the last!
She's quite a lot of fun to play with.

I created Elle for a challenge being held by Deedra's Art on Facebook (aka FoxyBlue ).
I'm so happy I saw this challenge and was able to participate!

Oh, and since I'll be spending the next few days in a house cleaning frenzy....Happy Thanksgiving!
