Earlier this year my club issued a challenge to make a piece incorporating a wooden candlestick. I posted photos of mine earlier this year. We had our holiday get together last night and we were supposed to bring our candlesticks. Unfortunately only 7 of us showed up and only 3 of us brought the candlesticks. I forgot my camera too. So I talked my friend Karen into trading dolls for a month, LOL. I just love this little girl - her face is a commercial mold and it came out really pretty!

She's absolutely beautiful! Such a sweet face (love the lashes especially!) and pretty costuming! Are those wings made of leaves? Wow! REALLY PRETTY!

Posted by: Anne at December 13, 2006 5:00 AMOh, I love your candle stick doll! Those wings are wonderful and her face is so sweet.
Peace-

Judi, I just needed to tell you how much I have enjoyed your blogs. I was feeling down and out because I cannot get to Houston or the big shows anymore. My husband's health restricts where I go and how long I am gone.
So, your blogs are a breath of fresh air from the dollmaking/crafty world. Thank you, thank you. I got so inspired by you and your activities, I joined my first online doll class. Perfect, I can pick it up at my available times.
Keep up the great work, love the pictures.
