This everybody is 'PRINCESS'.
My first attempt at making a fairy doll. She certainly didn't look like this when I got her.
Her wings were the first ones I had ever made and they are made of fabric. I designed her dress and made the little chair she is sitting on.
All princess's need a tiara and after a lot of thinking I finally made her one. Unfortunately or fortunately 'Princess' never made to the fairy garden because of the wind we get here at home and now resides in my craft room.

This is 'HOPE'
I created her for a 'Breast Cancer' awareness group on request and as pink represents 'Breast Cancer' I was lucky enough to find a doll with a pink highlight in her hair and managed to find just the right pink for her outfit. I make all my own wings and thought that these were appropriate.

The little champagne glass is a candle and at the base is a little butterfly (I didn't make that) which represents change. I didn't changed her facial features as I thought she was perfect the way she was. When I found her she was grubby and her hair looked like she had been electrocuted (something like our own hair looks when we first get out of bed) :-).
I scoured the internet for any information I could find on fixing Barbies hair and 'Oh my stars' guess what!! I found many articles on the subject (fantastic).![]() |

This is 'GYPSY'
This doll reminded me of my daughter. Her bedroom looks a bit like a Gypsies tent with twinkle lights hanging over bed like a canopy, smelly candles, a variety of stuffed animals arranged all over her bed. Things hanging in her doorway which I usually get caught in and as I said a Gypsies tent.
This is where I got the idea of creating 'Gypsy'.

This is 'ELLE"
Elle's hair was straight and as I wanted her to have curls I found out how to do it, and am really glad we don't it to our own hair.(lol)
I taught myself how to pierce her ears, made her earrings and found a little charm that says 'hope' which thrilled me no end and made it into her necklace.
I'm pretty fussy about the dolls I use and have been very lucky with their condition.
