Basic Doll and her doll
Basic Doll and her doll kit A doll that was simple and affordable, but not plain and I wanted her appealing to the heart. Her construction is taken from humble cloth dolls, but she becomes a little more defined with her delicate joints and painted surface, which is another old-time technique. She has a mohair wig and is stuffed with real wool. Her jointed arms and legs are weighted so she will sit well. She comes, and I like her best, in her camisole and pantaloons, but then there is clothing to add and accessories as well. She even has her own doll (which comes with her in the kit). I have tried to make the kits as fool-proof as possible with silkscreened sewing lines, premeasured stuffing amounts and stencils for face detail. The series then continues on with furniture, rugs, quilts and other accessories which would make her fun and fulfill the dream.

Round Table with Drawer and Turned Legs
Round Table with Drawer and Turned Legs The style of this table is very Early American. It was originally designed so the top tilted back and formed a chair or bench and it could be stored close to a wall. Because of the scale, this one does not tilt, but in all other details, including the working drawer, it is like real.
