Welcome to SugarPlumDolls.com I think my cute clothespin dolls make fabulous Christmas ornaments or gifts BUT are now also available as greetings cards, postcards and more..Just to let you know all dolls are individually handcrafted clothespin dolls and make very special gifts or can be used as a holiday ornament. I think they add a personal touch to the holidays! It takes me about 2 to 3 days to make each doll. Each doll has her own personality. No two dolls are alike, some dolls may be similar but because of the handmade process each doll is unique. Some dolls may have slight imperfections in the wood, but aren't we all a little less than perfect! Each doll arrives on my worktable as a blank slate. After I draw on the face, paint the hair and body, then I glue the head to the body then wait a day for the paint and glue to dry. I have a treasure trove of fabric and tulle and I begin to craft an outfit and accessories for each girl. I hope you will enjoy your visit here. You can shop for an actual doll online at www.etsy.com/shop/clothespindolls or visit me on YouTube at youtube.com/clothespindolls where I show you how to make your own Sugar Plum Clothespin dolls and other cute handmade items. Enjoy the day!
The legs are reclaimed from an old Lyon worktable. They were treated with electrolysis, walnut shell blasted then painted. The top is made from 2"x4" lumber. Its amazing what you can do with a hand plane. The surface came out nice enough I didn't even bother to sand. The finish is just outdoor deck stain. For a utility surface, I figured that was sufficient.
This Tuscan-inspired kitchen has three separate movable workstations, each with its own set of four burners and an oven. Our culinary kitchens are outfitted with top-of-the-line equipment including BlueStar ranges. In keeping with our philosophy of innovative education, we've designed special worktables that move easily around the kitchens and fit together to create a variety of configurations, from team islands to line simulations.
I rehabilitated an old table with paint, vinyl, and plexiglas. Now it's my spacious new sewing table! It's 9 feet long!
A box of millinery flowers...I wish I could say they were vintage, but I can never find any vintage flowers that are in good shape, and affordable. So I just pick them up at the craft store when they're on sale, or whimsy strikes, which is often! They are so pretty to me, and I often just leave the box open on the worktable while I'm working. Sometimes, I reach in and rearrange them.

A sculpture project from my student years at the University of Lethbridge (1977-1982)
Details from my cast portrait together with my graduation photo.
Here is a clock I built many years ago, situated on one of my worktables in the studio in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada.
The mask in the clock is a selfportrait with a funny story: at University, a fellow student helped me take the cast, but my mustache got caught (yes, we did grease it) and, while pulling on the cast, I reached in with a exacto blade glued to a cardboard strip, and started cutting. With the pain of pulling, I couldn't tell whether I was cutting myself or not, fully expecting to come out all bloodied. Turned out, I was allright, but that was the beginning of the end for my carefully groomed Dali moustache!
This one of a series of books made from the paper I place on my worktable. They form a diary of marks related to the period of time they are in place. Some have dates, this one does not. The paper here is a commercially bought handmade paper, the front nad back covers have been coated in beeswax to give them some strength.
This particular book was produced in 2012 whilst preparing for my Painting with Natural Dyes workshop.
It has a tape binding, so all pages will open flat, the tape used is naturally dyed silk which has been waxed to the cover to secure it.
This book can either be left as an artist's book or you can enter into a collaboration with me
by working into the pages
If you do that please share the results with me
Book is 12 x 8cm (43/4 x 31/2") and has 60 pages.
I definitely have to rent a warehouse and start up a beads emporium............... Not at all proud of the chaotic state of affairs because I know I'll get it all sorted out before the weekend is over and then by Wednesday next week, we'll be back to square one. Isn't this so much fun? Yah right!

Well, he flew in today -accompanied by a rabbit and two birds he appears to have befriended whilst airborne. A delightful buying experience from beginning to end. From reading the fantastic stories, to being updated on posting time, to receiving the little bear with his lovely (recycled) wrappings & little friends. This is a shop which reminds you why it is best to buy handmade from the creator. I hope you like the picture of his new surroundings. He is flying above my worktable to give me inspiration and to cheer me up and, as you can see, when I am not in there, he has other bear friends to talk to. Thank you so much again - I'm glad I chose him rather than a facial!

Visiting Den Gamle By ( The old town), with Jette, Jette aka Jaedde & Sis
Painter's Workshop. 19th century.
The work of the painter consisted of hanging wallpaper as well as painting and decoration tasks. The painter mixed his own paint. He poured colour powder and linseed oil out on to the granite slab on the worktable on the right. Then he ground the ingredients into a uniform subsance with he muller, the smooth, half-round marble stone. Before 1900, the painter often made his own varnish from boiled flax-seed oil with siccatve aded to it. The brushes were made of animal hair.

I'm growing taller. Yah right! My drawer space is growing upwards. Can't help it. Even the space under my worktable is filling up and I think the family will be making arrangements for me to move into a warehouse if I don't get my act in order. I'm trying, really trying but there is nothing that will make me STOP bead shopping!

Socks for my favorite son...
Short attention span?
Form of ADD?
Summer fibes?
Lack of finish-what-you-started-attitude?
BTW: worktable is covered with handmade art journals, rubber stamps, glue, scissors, old magazines, ink, pens and duct tape. So, everything is pretty normal around here...
My Christmas cards in production. We like to make our own so we can include the Bible verses that we want to. I printed the inside on the computer and stamped and assembled the outside. The tree stamp was cut from fun foam.
From the museum label: Guston grappled with the best way to describe the work he was making in the 1970s. In place of "figurative," a term then being attached to paintings like the ones in this gallery, he preferred "clear enigma." For Guston, "figurative" suggested the mere reproduction of "visual data." To paint a "clear enigma," on the other hand, involved conjuring an image that seems simultaneously recognizable and strange, one that offers a sense of seeing something familiar, something tangible, as if for the first time. The artist achieves just such a delicate balance in The Palette, in which he renders ambiguous and abstract an otherwise ordinary artist's worktable - specifically, his own, given the presence of his wife's name, "Musa."
Our culinary kitchens are outfitted with top-of-the-line equipment including Vulcan ranges, grills, salamanders and convection ovens, an Alto Sham combi-oven, as well as Traulsen refrigerators and Hobart mixers. In keeping with our philosophy of innovative education, we've designed special worktables that move easily around the kitchens and fit together to create a variety of configurations, from team islands to line simulations.
This is how my husband unwinds.
Pentax K20D with DA* 16-50mm f/2.8 lens at 16mm, f/8.0, 1/25 sec, ISO 400. Strobist with Vivitar 285HV at 1/2 power at camera right pointed up and bounced off of ceiling. Flash fired with Cactus V4 wireless triggers.
This is my worktable after a day of crafting and wireworking. Behind, see the plastic storage drawers and a wooden cabinet (painted white) with slide-out shelves for holding my raw clay. I was making leaves for my mother's garden wall...

decided to recycle my tripod lamp I got as a gift last Christmas and placed it inside the chinese porcelain vase I got for P25.00 at the flea market yesterday.
Those green chinese ghost resin figures I also got at the flea market for P200 / pair.

"Haven't I introduced myself, yet? I'm Havoc. It says so, right here."
----------------------
This is a project that I had on my mind (and worktable) for quite a long time! Thanks to Dal Lee, who encouraged me to show my Havoc, I finally got myself together to cut her hair and take the photos ; ).
For those who don't know, the original Havoc is a fashion doll from the Seventies and is closely related (not by blood but by manufacturing ; )) to Mary Quant's "Daisy". There are some great sites out there where you can find more info on the original doll.
I stumbled across the original Havoc many years ago and remembered her when Poppy Parker got into the "Lotta Danger" and "Girl from INTEGRITY" storyline. Since Lotta's arch enemy Sebina and her brother Sebastian are the Havoc siblings, it's pretty safe to think that David B. had Havoc in mind when her worked on Lotta.
To make it short: Havoc is a secret agent whose real name is not known and she works as a journalist (at least sometimes) while her true job is kicking the evil a**es all over the world. The backside of the doll packaging had some cool comics that showed Havoc in action and wow, this girl means business! She's great!
My own girl got a midnight blue lycra bodysuit with working zipper (completely sewn by hand, I went crazy with this outfit *lol*) and white boots. That's her standard battle suit. I made a 1/6 scale version of her pink shirt (from the motorcycle set), too, but haven't made the rest of the items yet (jeans, leather jacket and so on).
I'm not quite sure, if I want to make her more outfits based on her original ones, or not. The trehcncoat with red hat is iconic!
Big thanks go to my brother, who recreated the Havoc logo so I could complete the suit and to Dal Lee for giving me the needed push towards completing the project.
