What to do ~

(My very first paper clay art doll was purchased by
artist Lauren Mumford back in 2007...
I was so honored that she bought her!
I always loved Lauren's artwork in the Stampington publications)

I have two HUGE bags of beautiful lavender buds..fragrant...

just waiting to become sachets.

I have so much gorgeous fabric, you know I do,

I've shared so many photos here!

And even this week I received a wonderful package packed

full of wonderful fabrics too!!! What a precious friend,

she doesn't want to be mentioned but I will share photos soon.

But all I can think about is creating a precious art doll.

I can see her in my mind's eye ~

using vintage fabrics for her clothing.

My thumbs are about to fall off from cleaning so many egg soaps and

we have even MORE orders to complete (a true blessing though)

I just keep wondering how long will I talk about making art dolls...

I need to JUST DO IT!

Look at this wonderful video ~ a beautiful handmade marionette!

Happy weekend precious friends!
hugs and love,
Dawn
