Thank you for visiting my web site. Please look in often, because I update frequently. The following links show more detail on each of my special creations. The items shown are samples. I custom make everything to order. All of my dolls are hand-sculpted using Fimo, Super Sculpey or Cernit. They are all fully posable. The eyes are glass and the hair and eyelashes can be made of human hair or the finest mohair. I can make them in any race or color. I use antique materials for many of the costumes. Each doll is signed and dated.

Puffins Past
Puffins Past are a new adventure. I have recreated the quality and care that craftsmen used years ago when prized possessions lasted forever. The dolls have a unique distressed antique finish. They can be custom-made. Vintage fabrics and trims are used.

Puffins Past mini quilts are about 23"x23". They can be custom made to fit any order. They are made from early American reproduction fabric. They can be hand-quilted or hand-tied, a practice commonly used in early America. They can be machine washed on delicate.

Little Sweethearts
These are my favorites - the dolls I love to make! They cuddle up anywhere you put them. Sitting up, they measure 4 1/2". Standing, they are about 8 1/2". They are fully posable, can be dressed in any manner you wish and can have your initials embroidered on them. They make incredible gifts! Theme dolls are my speciality. For example: Sweetheart "Daryl" is for our friend, Daryl Sherman, the talented jazz singer and piano player who plays Cole Porter's piano at Peacock Alley, Waldorf Astoria, New York.

These dolls are fully posable. They range in height from 18" up. I love to create different people, so anything you might desire will inspire me. A few examples: Tammy, from California, sent me a piece of wallpaper and asked me to create "Chef Tammio" from that paper. "Ginny" is from "Harry Potter" for a woman in Ohio. Please send me your ideas and I will make you a doll that is forever yours.
