You're Never Too Old to Play with Dolls...

I found this sweet little jointed bisque doll in an antique store last week (the same one where I found the pink prize ribbons in my last post). I'm such a sucker for these sweet little dolls. Only problem was, she needed clothes. She had just her little silvery top, but no skirt. What's a girl to do? I had such fun going through my stash and finding a beautiful old piece of 1920's silver metallic lace for a skirt, old silk ribbon for her sash, and a sweet little ribbonwork posy for embellishment. I was really tickled with how she turned out. I just enjoy looking at her with her sweet little face and now, jaunty flapper attire. Isn't it funny how sometimes the simplest things give us the most pleasure?

Just a quick post to say I'm thinking of you all out there in Blogland.

Until next time,

    Judy, she did turn out very cute. I found a little doll like that recently and needed to do the same thing. Yours turned out very sweet!
