Here's a few more photos, including the paintings.

Not the best quality photos but ....

I really wanted to share these pictures of the stuff I've been making for the Nostalgic Mix Fair in the Civic Hall, Totnes next Saturday.
I've made 50's and 60's style dolls with hand painted dress fabrics, geometric leather jewelry and painted stones.
I'm most excited about the paintings though, I so enjoyed doing them and it took me back to my art college days in Dublin, hmmm.
I can't help but think that my little half table might look a bit sparse, but there's still a week to go and as long as the kids stay healthy and don't have any time off school, who knows what I'll come up with next week!
Suffice to say I'm happy.

It's the vintage dolls!

I've been making these 1950's and 60's dolls. The patterned dresses I've painted, a Lucienne Day pattern and a made up one. The blue dress was inspired by the 1960's air hostess uniforms. Great fun!
I'll be taking them to the Nostalgic Mix fair in Totnes on 31st March in the Civic Hall.

Trying something new.......

I've been painting for the last few days, geometric patterns.
They've got a fifties feel to them, and the process of painting is so absorbing, it's making me very happy.

New Doll

I put a picture up before I'd finished the detail on this doll's dress, so here she is completely finished.
Again, she's for the Cross Shop, and the dress is Akira.

Here's a new doll wearing a miniature Akira dress, for the Cross Shop, xx
