1920's Bisque Doll for Valentine's Day

Posted by csdferwEHRTJR Jumat, 28 Januari 2011 0 komentar

Today I am sharing a little 1920's bisque doll that I dressed up with antique silk, lace, and ribbon work. I have been doing up these dolls for a year or two now and I love how they turn out.

This sweet gal is all ready for Valentine's Day with her little vintage crochet basket filled with miniature handmade valentines.

She is a real cutie pie and if you love her as much as I do, you can check her out here. Yes, a little shameless self promotion never hurt anyone, right? Hope you all have a blessed weekend. I am linking up with French Cupboard's Handmade Valentine Party and Debra's Vintage Inspiration Friday. Join us for some fun!

Until next time,

A Sweet Little Doll for Christmas

Posted by csdferwEHRTJR Kamis, 02 Desember 2010 0 komentar

Those of you who have been following me for a while know that I love to dress little antique bisque dolls. This one was done up for Christmas in all of her seasonal finery. Her skirt is original, but I added the vintage lace trim, the bodice is vintage velvet, and the ribbonwork sash is vintage as well. She is a little gal, about 3 inches tall. I am linking up with Debra's Common Ground and her Vintage Inspiration Friday Christmas edition. Pull up your chair, pour a cuppa, and join us, won't you?

Until next time,

It's my birthday and I'll post more dolls if I want to...

I know you are probably getting sick of my little doll posts, but doggone it, this new one I just did up is SO cute! And, this Pink Saturday, it really is my birthday, so I guess I will ask for your indulgence in putting up with yet another little doll. This antique bisque doll is larger than the ones I've done before, so I was able to be a bit more bold with the trims I used. This one has an antique silk velvet bodice and a very pretty scalloped lace trim skirt. Vintage rayon seam binding forms her belt, shoulder straps, and little rosette "dress clips". Topping it all off is a wonderful garland of vintage velvet flower trim at the hip and forming her headband. I just love her gold hair (not golden, really gold!). She is SO 1920's. And SO sweet.

Now, before I go off to eat my celebratory birthday sweets, I'm going to pop over to Bev's at How Sweet the Sound to check out the other Pink Saturday participants.

Until next time,

You're Never Too Old to Play with Dolls...

Posted by csdferwEHRTJR Senin, 29 Juni 2009 0 komentar

I found this sweet little jointed bisque doll in an antique store last week (the same one where I found the pink prize ribbons in my last post). I'm such a sucker for these sweet little dolls. Only problem was, she needed clothes. She had just her little silvery top, but no skirt. What's a girl to do? I had such fun going through my stash and finding a beautiful old piece of 1920's silver metallic lace for a skirt, old silk ribbon for her sash, and a sweet little ribbonwork posy for embellishment. I was really tickled with how she turned out. I just enjoy looking at her with her sweet little face and now, jaunty flapper attire. Isn't it funny how sometimes the simplest things give us the most pleasure?

Just a quick post to say I'm thinking of you all out there in Blogland.

Until next time,
