About Me
- Angie
- I am hitting some sort of mid life epiphany (almost 40!). I realize that I have been living in a bubble and I am trying to come out of it a little bit. I work in a major urban hospital full-time and my husband is a stay at home dad to our two wonderful children (Daniel age 6 and Amelia age 4). I absolutely love my life and all the richness of it and look forward to learning new things, meeting new people and taking new adventures.

A birthday Annie for my mom
Jenny and dolly
This is the first doll I have ever sold. A co-worker asked me to make a doll for her daughter's nineth birthday. Normally I am not a big fan of selling my stuff. I always have fun making dolls, and it was fun to make some money too.
Prim Annie for Amelia
I made this Annie using a pattern I bought through www.raggedyoldannies.com - I absolutely love her! Amelia loves her too. Amelia named her "raggy". I know I have essentially three pictures of the same doll - but hey I think she is too cute for one picture.
Catalina and Camelia w/ bunny
I made these two dolls for sisters (friends of my daughter) who celebrated their birthday not too long ago (Feb. 08). The eyes are painted - first time I have done this - because one of the girls just turned 2 and I didn't want to use button eyes. The outfits are not coffee stained - because I knew the girls would appreciate the pure pinkness. I made two bunnies - and I completely changed the nose on this bunny after I took the picture - I will post an updated bunny picture. The doll and bunny pattern is from Sweet Meadow Farms. I am making a set of these dolls for myself - complete with grubby-pink-coffee-stained outfits. I really like the painted eyes, but this picture doesn't capture how cool they truly are.

Christmas Stars
The stars I have pictured here are the Christmas gifts that I made for my co-workers. Each card has something written on the back and the "hook" is a beaded wire I strung through the card so that it could be hung on a tree or just hung on a tack. I made at least 20 of these and they were very well received. I know my pictures are not the greatest - my camera is about five years old. The card is water color paper cut in the shape of a star, I used artist chalk to cover the star with color then painted it with Modge Podge and then generously covered the glue with art glitter. Next I adhered a nice sticker in the middle, added some ribbon or other fibers and attached a beaded wire at the top. I loved making these.

I just adore these creations. Whimsical and beautiful. If you could teach me to make one of these you are a miracle worker. We must get together. . .
