Mary's Little Lamb


Mary had a little lamb who's fleece was white as snow.....well that may have been the case once upon a time, but this little antique inspired lamb pull toy was made to resemble a toy that has been well loved and played with for years! "Lambie" was created by my own fair hands with great attention to detail from aged cloth, then sparsely needle felted giving her a worn with love apperance.


Lambie's primitive charm continues from the worn paint at the tip of her sculpted nose right down to the vintage wheels on her pull toy base! Lambie is a sweet little treat at just 10" tall, she makes a great companion for dolls and teddy bears alike!


I don't use patterns or molds, so each signed and dated piece of art is truly a one of a kind! Lambie is an adult collectors piece not intended for children to play with.  



Lambie is sold ~ Thank you~ Orders for similar are welcome. 




Miss Prudence Rutherford


Prudence loves the gardens, she could spend hours listening to the rustling of the wee creatures and the song of the birds, today though she is on a mission to gather the finest roses to dress the table for guests. She can't wait to see who Mother has invited to tea! 




Prudence is a Queen Anne style vintage inspired doll created with cloth and clay. She is adorned in a hand stitched dress created with vintage Irish linen, and  trimmed in old french lace, and silk ribbon, the hem of her dress has an antique French laundry "PR" monogram tag sewed to it. Her hand stitched underpinnings are made from vintage cotton and lace. 


Prudence has been created in a somewhat primitive style with a small bit of wear and has been antiqued for a warm aged appearance, she is 14" tall. 
No patterns or molds are used to create my dolls, so each is a true one of a kind. Prudence will come signed and dated on her own wooden stand in your choice of color. Prudence is an adult collectors artwork, not intended for children. 


Sold Thank you


Timber

I absolutely love old toys, and adore animals, so what could be better than combining the two! I created "Timber" to resemble an antique pull toy that has been well loved and played with until little remains of it but the foundation. 


Timber has been created with mostly new materials to looked well loved and aged, I've taken extra care with all the fine details such as rusty nails where his mane once flowed long and luxurious, to aging the base on which he stands to a lovely worn looking patina. Tiber is charming from his carved features and  thinning mane, right down to his vintage wheels. He'd look charming under an antique feather Christmas tree or tucked in amongst your vintage toy collection.
 

Like all of my artwork, Timber is one of a kind, no patterns or molds are used so he's as unique as you are! He will come signed and dated.



Timber is sold ~Thank you~Orders for similar are welcome. 


Miss Amelia Winthrope


  Amelia is so excited! She's found the perfect bonnet to go with her gown. Amelia's family is said to throw the very best All Hallows' Eve dance in the county, eligible young men from the finest families will no doubt be in attendance, Amelia must look her best! 

Amelia is dressed in replica, repurposed and vintage fabrics and trims . I've hand stitched parts of her attire, parts have been machine stitched as they are repurposed or too persnickety in nature to handwork. Amelia carries a small jack o lantern bucket and a witch mask to complete her All Hallows' Eve ensemble.   Amelia is 14", her body is made from antique French linen.  



Amelia will come signed and dated on her own wooden stand in your choice of color. Amelia is an adult collectors artwork, not intended for children. 




Thank you Amelia has been sold
