MORE OOAK Barbies!

I couldn't fit all the photos I wanted to on my last post so here are a few more. These dolls were made by the FDCR's council for all of the members. The New Year's doll is this year's- the beadwork on her outfit is just amazing! I think she goes very well with last year's doll, too!

OOAK BARBIES

I'm finally getting around to posting photos of the OOAK Barbies from the Fashion Doll club of the Rockies holiday party.

I won a doll created by reknown designer Avis Jones. She is outstanding! I hope you can see the detail in the back of her dress in the photos. I am so thrilled to win a doll created by Avis!

The vintage repro Barbie is my first attempt at creating a OOAK. Her dress & belt use Stampin' Up! supplies (I LOVE their new fabric line!), her petticoat is a vintage doily, and I knitted her sweater and crocheted her clutch bag.

Vintage Treasures!

Last Thursday was my monthly trip to my favorite vintage store, Oh So Charming Cottage. I bought a roll of embossed wallpaper, baby hangers, 2 matching glass lamps, pink napkins with a chenille design embossed on them, and a round hankie that I plan to make into a Barbie skirt!

I bought the napkins to go with the felt napkin rings I've been making with my Big Shot machine.

One of my favorite things about this store are the lovely displays- they always inspire me to go home and copy some of their ideas! They had a cute little suitcase stuffed with linens so I went home and hauled out my little suitcase, filled it with linens, and put up some old photos of my Dad & his family (that's my Grandma Solberg at the spinning wheel- sure wish I had seen what she made!) and a picture of my mom as a baby with her brother and niece and one of her at high school graduation. I need to find some old photos of Todd's family to complete this vignette!
