Mardi Gras FAiry Folk Art Dolls

Hi there! Magical Fairy Blessings to you! WE are the Magical Mardi Gras FAiry Folk.. we went to the Flower and Butterfly people for help in getting dressed up for Mardi Gras Celebreation.. we are colored with all the beauty of spring time.. renewal and growth.

The Butterfly People were so excited about our idea that they three of them chose to be our wings so we could fly throughout the magical forest and spread the joy of spring and celebration with all.

Our home is the magical STone and Crystal Forest.. hidden from the eyes of all who do not believe. For those who allow the inner child to come out to play, you will see us.

We sit on the crystals and stones and infuse their healing energy into the world by flittering our wings. The magic flys up high above the forest and fills the world with magic and celebration.

WE look forward to living in your home and bring our house, stones and crystals with us.

WE are clay and measure 3 1/2 inches.

Om Elf

2006-01-11T07:48:00.000-08:00

I designed an original pattern for an Elf Challenge with other artisians. The dolls that came from that challenge brought me so much joy in the creation. I have made three now with the new pattern and offer two of the dolls for sale on my website.
The Om Elf chants balance and wholeness for the Earth Mother and All Relations. Will you join with her and help create a more peaceful world?

Each of these holds the world in her hands.. the power to create. We too hold this power.. what shall we do with it?

Traditional Red White Santa Claus Cloth Doll

2005-11-04T09:14:00.000-08:00

Here comes Santa Claus

I just love this traditional red and white Elf. He's bringing a bag of goodies for all the boys and girls.. and some beads for the tree.

He wears his glasses just to make sure he gets everything right.

I used cloth over wire armature to create this jolly fellow. His is dress in furs and his face is painted with pastels.

He comes with a stand so you can show him off with style.

Original OOAK Art Doll is signed and dated.

His hair and beard are English Wool.. wonderful stuff.

He measures 15 inches.

HO HO HO Merry Christmas..

Old world and new World Santa's meet

2005-11-03T06:05:00.000-08:00

I have been having so much fun creating the new line of Santa dolls. I love working with different fabrics to create a different magic with each one.
I am so grateful that I get to play all year and call it work. I can't think of a better job than creating beauty to share with the world.
I am working on Support Our Troops Santas this week for those with loved ones in the military. Be sure to check back later for pics of those.

Here I share a few of the latest Santas with you.

If you are interested in your very own Santa for the holidays, check my website or email me. I love doing custom work.

Support our Troops American Santa Clause

2005-10-31T05:21:00.000-08:00

Many families this holiday season, will celebrate without loved ones present. These loved ones will be away due to their stints overseas. While we may not all support the War, we can all show honor and respect for those who willingly go fight.
Original Americana Cloth Santa Claus Doll

Regardless of whether we are in support of the War in Iraq, we are all in support of the many men and women who are there on our behalf.

With this in mind, I created this original Cloth Santa.

He sports a suit with the Statue of Liberty.. precious to all Americans for what it stands for.. our Freedom and way of life.

He has English wool for a beard and hair, carries a bag of the flag, with a yellow ribbon.. till they come safely home..!

He brings toys and most importantly.. the prayers of so many children who wish for mothers and fathers home this holiday season.

Display this Santa during the holidays.. or year round to show your support for our troops and your hope of their safe return.

Santa is signed and dated, comes with stand and toys as shown. He meausres 16 inches. Face is painted with pastels.

Girl Elf and Bird Friend

2005-10-26T17:25:00.000-07:00

Here is the companion of the Boy Elf. They were such wonderful company while I was in the garden. They spoke of all the magic they bring to us humans, and how sad it is that we don't take the time to see and hear the magic.

Joy and Abundance Gifts for the Holidays

2005-10-26T17:20:00.000-07:00

This Father Clause brings a Cardinal.. a sure sign of the gifts of prosperity and abundance. He even has a wreath with berries for the door.
He is one of my newest Santas. I love doing these dolls. Thankfully I sale them online and at shows or my home would be overrun.

Elf and Bird

2005-10-26T17:17:00.000-07:00

We all know that the Elf Folk are magical. Here one shows off for his picture to be taken while letting his Bird rest for a moment.
I was out in my garden late in the evening and this delightful fellow buzzed by with his female friend to say hello.

Holiday Magical Elf

2005-10-26T17:06:00.000-07:00

I have created more magic. I sat down and drew an original design pattern and created this wonderful Magical Elf.
This pic shows him in my yard with a few of the Cat People checking him out. He was great fun to design and sew.
He will go to the Christmas Festival with me in December.
I have been busy getting more Santas ready along with a few fairy and angels.
Being able to express myself through my crafts brings me great joy and satisfaction.

I Care Katrina Healing Dolls

2005-10-02T06:46:00.000-07:00

I along with the rest of the country was shocked by the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and the horror it brought to so many thousands of people.

I was and still am overjoyed at the care, love and concern given freely to those affected. The other day I was inspired to create these little dolls to represent the Hope, Faith, Love and Healing of all those affected by this ordeal and all the other challenges we deal with in our lives.

I will be offering these for auction with 50% of the sales going towards the Red Cross and United Way to help in relocating those affected by the hurricane.

Some I have made into pins, others are little dolls to stand on your desk or lay on a table.. reminding you to send light, love and healing energy to all affected. They also carry a personal message.. I Care.. I am a Bearer of Light, Love and Hope to myself and others.

EAch doll comes with the card shown.

I offer these here so that you might buy them for the price listed. I have others for auction on several sites. Know that half the price goes towards Katrina Survivors. I donate through Paypal and can show proof if anyone asks.

Your purchase not only helps me to donate to aid those so in need.. but your wearing the pins and displaying the dolls lets you share the message of hope, faith, healing and love to all you come in contact with. In order to share love and healing with others, we first become a channel for that love and healing.. thus we are also filled with and affected by these energies.

Thank you so much for helping.

Making A Difference STick Art Dolls

2005-06-17T20:24:00.000-07:00

I began creating dolls when my children were little. I loved using cloth and clay to create something that the children loved.. As they got older they wanted animal dolls.. these were also great fun to craft.
Now three of my children are grown and no longer want Mama to make them a doll and my 12 year old daughter thinks dolls are for sissies.. she would much rather play ball or ride her bike.
So this Mama creates new dolls for herself. I love using all sorts of found objects to make statements about my view of life.. the hopes, dreams, joys and sorrows.. expressed for others to share.
I am presently working on a new line of doll people.. the Making a Difference Dolls..
I will of course use my sticks.. as I love using pecan from the trees in my back yard.. what a nurturing energy the sticks share.. and weavings for clothes. EAch doll will bring a message of our making a difference in our world.
Check back later in the week to see what I have accomplished.
Smiles,
Donna

Just Being Me

2005-06-13T09:34:00.000-07:00

This doll represents the aspect of myself and you.. which wants to dress as we desire.. wants to connect with that Gypsy energy.. dancing around a fire.. kicking up our heels and reading tarot cards for money.
She is cloth.. and comes with her own stand..
