Lisa African-American Rag Doll

*All gallery pages are listed on the sidebar*

SOLD

This one of a kind hand sewn, hand painted African-American (black) rag doll stands 30 inches tall and wears a green and cream home spun dress with red accents. She has two gold ribbons in her long black hair and a red wool beret. Little black patent leather shoes and white socks adorn her feet. A sweet smile and big brown eyes were hand painted to make this doll one special creation.

Note: Because her skin is hand painted she does not have the cuddly feel of most cloth dolls. For this reason she is listed as ornamental, a shelf sitter or bed doll.

A Work In Progress

She’s coming right along. I need give her eye lashes as well as a few nicks and tucks then she’ll be all ready. Her red beret is so sweet.

Lisa and friend by you.

Both dolls were 100% hand stitched and hand painted. Their clothing is from rescued materials.

The Friendly Redhead

he’s the first and only of her kind by yours truly. This little redheaded doll is a special gift to a friend. As you can see she’s got long red locks and little freckle spots. Her dress is a flowing apple orchard print with green ruffled trim.

My favorite part are her little ducky boots. When I saw those I absolutely had to buy them.

The second doll you see is what I like to call an oops doll. Oops? Yup, the fabric I used isn’t so forgiving so there’s a slight error on her lips. She still needs more work though before I offer her at a special oops price in my Etsy shop.  I need to work on her eyes some more and add little shoes. The blond doll is sporting a blue jean dress and a blue jean hat with a tiny pink firefly on the hat. Her friend has a small butterfly in her hair to the right side.

These two dolls are from the Charlene Collection. They are both signed and dated on the bum as are all my dolls.

Update:

Both dolls pictured now have homes. Thanks to everyone who inquired. There’s one more coming very soon.

Note: Layaway is available on prints as well as originals and dolls. See my sidebar for contact information.

Charlene Doll

Who is Charlene? Charlene is a little girl in Oregon who is very special to me. She’s so special that I believe she deserves a line of dolls dedicated to her.

The very first doll in this line is an African-American rag doll who stands 28 inches. She’s wearing a cream colored cotton dress with a pink ribbon and pink rose. She has matching bloomers, white socks and black patented “leather” shoes. You will also notice she’s got little sunflower earrings. Continue reading ‘Charlene Dolls’
