~DAISY Mae~

Daisy Mae is just a lil-bitty dollie. She is so very sweet and I am completely happy with the way that Daisy Mae finished up. I have so much detail in her....lots of playing I did! But after all, I have always said, "It is all about the details"...the little things...

I have my hand here in the picture, so that you may see just how itty-bitty she is. From her bum to her hat, she sits just a wee-bit over 8 inches tall (only because of her hat). I figure with small dollies, they can fit just about anywhere...

I LOVE the color of her hair, it is brown, with reddish tints...very neat! She is kept in the "sitting position" and sits very nicely, I might add. Her garland can be removed and her arms are wired. She will be heading to ebay this evening...for 5 days and end on Sunday Evening...

And here is a bit of a close-up, to see her garland, tag and trim. The garland, I made by hand. It is double backed, has little petals, that I made slits in and antiqued, glittered and then wired together. Very sweet and VERY time consuming. I also made for her a paper hang tag with the letter "D", for Daisy Mae. I glass glittered that one...but the flowers are Martha S. glitter (love that stuff too).

Now on to the fancy trim....I purchased that from Annie at ~Blur.Baby/Glitter your World~ and I aged it a bit. Actually, this dollie, I stained all of her. Something about a little bit of an aged look, gives my dollies a much sofer look, that I love. Any who, the trim, is absolutely WONDERFUL! Love this trim, she has it in white and soft pink...it has little pleats in it. You can click on her name and it will take you to her blog...you can see all of her yummy trims and such!

I hope you enjoyed taking a peek at my dollie...that is all I have been up too. Actually, worked on her waaaay too much, but had so much FUN! I have not had that much enjoyment making a dollie for quite a while. So, I must scoot. Have a great day. Toodles, ~Tonya
