Holly Faerie is a OOAK beaded art doll. She is bal-jointed and has 13 points of articulation. She is made of Japanese glass seed beads, organic cotton thread & fiber fill, ahimsa silk thread, and Swarovski pearls. She is about 9 inches tall. There is a lot of interesting lore about the holly plant, I posted a little about that on my website, if anyone wants to read it, here is the link: faeriedustdolls.wordpress.com/2015/08/17/holly-faerie/
The faerie garden's finally all planted and arranged this year. It's hard to believe but I've already had to cut back the lamb's ears, wormwood, and tansy.
Hanging from the limb of a rhododendron we were lucky to find one of the remaining mystery fairies. Apparently some artist makes a few dozen of these fairies with wire and yarn bodies, paper wings, and clay faces. They tend to disappear pretty quickly once they are discovered. Classic Eugene!
Light as a feather, candyfloss tendrils!
(These are not yarn falls... they are hand felted with a gorgeous swirled effect around a strong, lofty core! They have been tested by Ro for dance-whipability and passed with flying colors! Literally! lol...)
Took 1 photo of fireworks tonight and it was this. For some reason, I didn't delete it. Later, looking at the full size photo, I noticed what I hadn't before -- green faerie above the explosion. D'you see her? ;)
Meet the newest doll here at Scribble Dolls, and my first doll of 2014!
She was a custom order inspired by Charles' Creature Cabinet's Fidelia Firefly Faerie.
(I'm sure if you follow me here on Flickr, you KNOW my feelings on the lovely Fidelia's!)
She is 11.5 inches tall.
She can not remain sitting up or standing without something to assist her, but she can still be manipulated in many fun ways with a prop.
I, personally, am having lots of fun with her because she's cuddly and floppy like a rag doll. :)
She was made using my newly drawn up "Pixie" pattern (with a slight change to her head...she needed to match the larger heads of the firefly faeries!).
Expect to see more Pixies in the near future! (They'll be very similar to this faerie, except for the smaller head and a slightly different face style.)
