The Cup Ran Away with the Spoons: wild-haired and dirty-faced from her successful spoon rescue, this lady is on the run to save the spoons. She is a one-of-a-kind doll assemblage. The hand sculpted face and arms are of polymer clay. Her title is a play on the nursery rhyme, "Hey diddle-diddle, the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon, the little dog laughed to see such a sight, and the dish ran away with the spoon."
The remainder of the doll is made from found object vintage hardware, an old tin measuring cup, miniature gears and a jewelry piece with antique-finished charms. An old door knob backplate forms the base. The beanie cap, face and neck structure, as well as the arms, are secured with wing nuts and bolts.
Penelope is another of the wooden spool series. Her torso is a vintage wooden sewing spool. She is sculpted from polymer clay and stands 11 1/2 inches tall.
This is Savannah, another of my spool doll series. Her torso is an antique wooden spool; the rest of the body is hand sculpted polymer clay. Her yellow and cream sunsuit and bonnet were made from a vintage doll dress that I cut up and remade. I guess you could say that she is a genuine recycled, repurposed doll. She is six inches tall on a 4" square base.
