Making Dollies

Lola has never really payed much attention to stuffed animals or dolls. She hugs them and then drops them.(I'm the one who LOVES them!) She spends all her time here reading books and making beautiful pictures with her new crayons. But lately she has really liked playing with little wooden animals i have found for her at the local craft stores. While shopping there i found these little peg doll shapes and decided to make her some dollies to go with her block set. I think she will like these two little sisters...

And this is Lenny, an old fashioned clothespin doll i made for her...
Lenny and his buddy Sam are already well played with, and live in Lola's crayon box..

This is Clarice, a little kitty glove doll i made for a customer at The Paper Sparrow. When i finished her i wasn't sure if i liked the way she came out but her new owner loved her and took her home for her little girl...
She loved her fancy tail! I love making dolls. I am so glad we can continue to offer them at The Paper Sparrow. More to come!
