A new little Doll House doll to share!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This little one is 3 /2" tall and is marked "Germany" on her back.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made of fine Porcelain.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am always amazed at the beautiful painting that the German's did on these tiny works of art.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I made her a tiny dress from beautiful ribbons to match her fairy like shoes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next she will receive her own little cabinet!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be posting a new piece for Halloween in the next couple days.</div>

I love doing Mixed Media pieces and so I started with a box and went from there. Alice is handsculpted from fimo clay and if standing would be approx. 10" tall. I wanted her to be a little bit "Edgy" something different than the traditional blonde Alice with the blue and white dress and pinafore.</div>

She had no undergarments so I proceeded to make her a slip and bloomers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her shoes were not appropriate so I replaced them with a cute pair of black oil cloth shoes.</div>

I am always on the lookout for old christening gowns. This one had some tiny rips that I repaired and then later covered with the lavender colored ribbons. The dress was hemmed and vintage lace added to the hem sewn entirely by hand. The sleeves were also shortened. These old gowns are gorgeous made into doll dresses. Old christening gowns that may have stains or other imperfections are great for transforming into a pretty dress for a doll.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She received new hair ribbons, a sweet vintage pin and then she was complete! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been working on some new restorations to share so I will start with those first!</div>

Handwerck Heinrich 109 -11 21"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a beautiful doll made by Simon and Halbig for Handwerck on her original signed Handwerck composition and wood doll body made in Germany circa 1900.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was so thrilled when I got this doll because she came with her original lace dress. It is gorgeous and was in nice condition...just needing a cleaning. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She was in nice condition needing only a little cleaning to be done. I washed her clothes, replaced her ribbons and added the darling vintage doll hat I had purchased several years ago. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As far as restorations...she really didn't have any issues other than her hands were a little scraped up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I lightly retouched the paint on them just to make them a little more presentable.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This doll is known for her sweet Dolly type face and is one of the most sought after dolls for collectors.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love how she turned out.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Winter is upon us once again. While the snow falls gently to the ground, the snow angel Kristallstjärna (Crystal Star)</span><span style="font-size: large;"> flies down to her favorite forest to visit her little snowman friend. She brings him a gift basket of beautiful snowflakes ,but as she soon discovers the warmer weather has melted her dear snow friend into a pool of himself. Her heart breaks. His humble scarf and unbecoming buttons lay wet on the ground in the puddle he left behind. Soon to her surprise however, she sees his last attempt to reach her. It is a sign, stuck in the snow. It reads "I'll be back again someday". After all, snowmen are of the winter and will eventually come back to play once the winter snows begin to fall again.</span> </div>

<b>I wanted to share with you a cute little pair of "Our Fairy" type bisque dolls that I have been working on. They are just a bundle of sweetness!!!</b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">When I purchased these little dolls someone had painted their feet and areas on their bodies with gold paint!! After I cleaned them up some little black shoes and blue socks appeared from under that old gold paint. Perhaps a child had painted them....I am not sure but after I cleaned them up they were so adorable I decided to make them some new outfits. They are copies of the German all bisque little doll named Our Fairy which is so popular with collectors and stand approx. 5" and 5 1/2" tall. </span>

Made in Germany these little dolls are stationary except for their heads which turn in different directions.<br />
They are held on by elastic strung through the tops of the heads. Different companies made them from 1920 on. Mine are not marked but I believe they are German. So cute...just had to share!<br />

My heart was broken a couple of weeks ago...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We lost our beautiful Arabian horse Mirage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So sudden...I was not prepared for it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I still miss him greatly...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find it so hard to go out to the barn and not have him greet me with</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
his wonderful whinnies and nudges begging for a scratch behind the ears.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A beautiful being that enriched our lives greatly!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until we meet again for another ride in the heavens!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love you... and miss you....my faithful steed!!!</div>

Since I recently discovered how to make a U-Tube video, I thought it would be fun to make a compilation video of my work. I didn't realize however...what a trip down memory lane it would be. Dolls that I had made and forgotten along the way brought back some wonderful memories of when I first started dollmaking and sculpting back in the early 1990's. The memories of struggles and triumphs when working on a doll came back to me as I looked back on earlier work. As a sculptor...at least with me anyway...I never know what will pop out of the clay. Looking back at the various faces I remembered what had inspired me at the time and how they came into completion. It was a fun project that I thought I would share here on my blog. <br />
I hope you enjoy it!!! <br />
Have a wonderful day!!! ;-) <br />

I just had to post this video of our two dogs Rosie and Sage playing in the snow. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEzSbUlX8Pc&feature=youtu.be">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEzSbUlX8Pc&feature=youtu.be</a><br />
This video was just shot about a week ago...we had 8" of snow fall! What! It is supposed to be Spring!!!!<br />
But....fortunately...it has melted pretty fast with the warmer weather we have been getting. Thank Goodness. But it was beautiful while it lasted. ;-)<br />

The faster she ran and played the more the little snowballs built up on her legs. By time we were done...she could barely walk. It was a fun day in the snow and afterwards....they both got warmed up with some big fluffy towels, right from the dryer. <br />
Hope you enjoy my first U-Tube video of our dogs Sage and Rosie...aka ...Snowball!<br />

I thought I would start out the new year on my blog showing some "New" transformations on some dolls I have been restoring. I have been working on many new projects which I will be showing this year both with dolls and other items. <br />
<br />
I thought I would start off with this little Happy Tot doll that I purchased a couple of years ago.<br />

One thing wonderful about her was that she came with her original tagged dress and slip. After a little mending and cleaning it looks much better. <br />

I adore this little doll...she has always been one of my favorites from that time period. These dolls typcially held little rubber tipped bottles but I don't have one at the moment so she holds a tiny little bouquet of sweet flowers for a sweet little girl! ;-)</div>Marcie Hart - A Work Of Harthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05690805856649638242noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2101706631421642837.post-33074517464571705112012-01-21T16:33:00.001-08:002012-01-21T16:33:41.954-08:00MADAME ALEXANDER 1920'S MY BETTY COMPOSITION DOLL 24'<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">This is a darling doll that I purchased at a local antique shop.

I was hoping to find a dress with original tags but as I have stated before, dresses like that can be hard to come by. Until then I did find a dress that looks cute on her and from the time period.<br />

Very fun little doll to make over. </div>Marcie Hart - A Work Of Harthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05690805856649638242noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2101706631421642837.post-34090430083795472802012-01-21T16:33:00.000-08:002012-01-21T16:33:23.309-08:00Snippets from the Sewing Room<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Last year I decided to make a small bedroom into a sewing room. Originally, I had my sewing room combined with my studio for sculpting and other projects. I thought it would be nice to separate them and give me a little more room for my studio. I am sure most of you know....you can never have too much room for creating. So I thought it would be fun to show little snippets here and there of projects in the works and some of my favorite things I have collected over the years. So I will start with this one little corner of my room!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrkBINBOb8hQZPv2BECy3hARu7oDdGTMuGsTCdHBSDhuANoQrVWFL7rfdGxepg5EPKFWGT9qnBTjHJ3o_XIEN2BQdKUD0kA9-_vDYPghGAiCOhT9ApzqGpcZfo1xmhcGzzxI8gaPdcvu8/s1600/081.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrkBINBOb8hQZPv2BECy3hARu7oDdGTMuGsTCdHBSDhuANoQrVWFL7rfdGxepg5EPKFWGT9qnBTjHJ3o_XIEN2BQdKUD0kA9-_vDYPghGAiCOhT9ApzqGpcZfo1xmhcGzzxI8gaPdcvu8/s320/081.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I started my room off with a color scheme in mind. I found some fresh pink and bright lime green fabric that I fell in love with. Sweet wild roses on a white background was the basis for the pops of color here and there around the room. These 3 little shelves were found cheaply at the thrift store. I painted them a pink to match my curtains and lined them up on the wall. They hold some of my favorite things. Above them is a beautiful cross stich picture stitched on fabric by an artist named Paula Vaughn. She is a cross stitch designer and watercolor artist. For many years now she has created some of the most beautiful victorian and country designs that I have ever seen. I have stitched many of her designs myself. This is one of my favorites and as luck would have it I stumbled across this piece in a antique store and got it for a song. The colors were perfect and someone did a great deal of work on this beautiful piece of stitchery. I am always sick when I see such beautiful needlework so under valued in the stores. Hours and hours went into this piece and I am happy to have rescued it. Now it will be proudly displayed amongst my most treasured items.</div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> As I share different photos here and there her designs will show up often as I have been a huge fan of her work for years!</div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is a closeup of the picture. Her designs remind me of a gentler time.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I just love her soft use of color.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I love old vintage lace so I incorporated many fine pieces into the front of her dress and along the sleeves, bodice etc., <br />
She also wears a OOAK crown I made especially for her. Old metal findings, antique rhinestones and vintage pearls highlight her crown to make it a truly old world style. Her hair is pulled up into a high coif with tiny braids that circle around the crown. </div><div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3Yv9ZZYIs545bK_UBPj0WLqFf566mvzi9xXTf6HaO5kN8S0rStXjcwWADnvK2VVc_kU5Jpx34yx_sD_Qs5lAlfKNskb0sPyZpl4epLc7suuvCuuH3tOJxqHfrPuf9EtiRNius_cd6ZA/s1600/Princess+%2526+Fairy+Attendent+092.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3Yv9ZZYIs545bK_UBPj0WLqFf566mvzi9xXTf6HaO5kN8S0rStXjcwWADnvK2VVc_kU5Jpx34yx_sD_Qs5lAlfKNskb0sPyZpl4epLc7suuvCuuH3tOJxqHfrPuf9EtiRNius_cd6ZA/s320/Princess+%2526+Fairy+Attendent+092.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have had good intentions but this year has been a difficult one with 3 deaths in a period of 6 months for our family. It has taken its toll both physically and mentally. It has been a time of much reflection. <br />
As I watch the leaves starting to turn and feel the warmth of summer fading into a cool fresh nip in the air I am reminded how the seasons come and go and that life is like the changing seasons. We hope for days of warmth and sunshine, but along lifes path we encounter those days of cold and unexpected weather. All we can do is try to weather the storms the best we can and hope for those beautiful days to shine down upon us once more.<br />
<br />
I feel a new sense of self, an awakening perhaps after seeing so much pain and suffering. I have come to realize that my art has been a strong force in the healing process. It has always been a place where I feel the most at ease and content. Little did I realize just how much it would help me to refocus and get back to the place I needed to be after what feels like such a long absence. It has been a driving force in my life and I can't imagine how life would be without it.<br />
<br />
So... I am anxious to get back to work and share some new things with you. Thank you to all of my faithful followers. I hope I can bring some new and exciting things to share with you this year and as each beautiful leaf falls to ground I take notice and appreciate the small gifts life offers us everyday. I hope you will too!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">We have had a very cold spring here where we live. It seems like winter just keeps hanging on but I did see the sweet little bees out working some spring blooms which always makes me smile. They are such amazing little creatures and what would we do without them? I love to watch them dive deep into a pollen filled flower and come out with little bits of pollen all over their legs like they are wearing little chaps. Such hard little workers they are. So I have attached a photo of this little bee and some spring blossoms to share with you. Knowing that Spring is just around the corner makes my heart sing!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Things we do as kids...where are our minds?????<br />

Notice the little paint set in the background? Another little glimpse into my future self. <br />
I have always loved painting and used to paint in oils and acrylics before doll making took over most of my time. I try to get back to it now and then whenever I get a free moment. One of my favorite things on earth is the smell of turpentine and oil paints in my studio! <br />
