Wild Alice is a Mid-Century Modern Mom who likes to recycle, up-cycle & re-purpose. Her children tell folks she is an Urban Archeologist or someone who likes to muck about in other peoples trash. In reality she is an administrative assistant at a large, very nice company. She works with really nice people and is very good at her job. Unfortunately it is a job & not her passion. Her passion has mostly been floating around in her head until recently when it started to leak out......so here is her story and the stories of the dolls that need to be real.

Tullah

I know 2 posts in one week - I am certainly surprised beyond belief!!  I love Tullah's face, I love her hair- braided Warm & Natural cotton quilt batting.  Is it bad that I love my dolls?  Tullah has been a WIP for a very long time.  She was a frou frou fairy for awhile & then a  prim angel.  I think she just wants to be a boho, hippie bippy, tree hugging, sun tea loving Earth Mother.  The cat's name is Ponder and the lamb (once she has ears she will look like a lamb) is Bix.  Bix is a little on the ornery side, her fleece is not as white as snow and who in their right mind would follow a child to school?? (can you say Child Protective Services???) & Seriously - stay inside all day being quiet & still or spend the day outside gamboling about bucolic fields and meadows?  No brainer - Bix chooses frolicking!!  As for Ponder, she was named after a Terry Pratchett character, a wizard.  Ponder considers herself a fine candidate to be a Cunning Folk Companion.  She has been studying the Eglantine Stuebingglassmore Book of Familiar Studies for nigh on 67 years now.  (you get extra credit for using "nigh on" in a sentence) She specializes in Cunning Folk Recognition, Penumbral Light Location and Star Placement.  Historically Cunning Folk have not ever been known for their fashion sense so identification is not all that difficult.  Now the location of Penumbral Light that is a very delicate and serious matter, not often mastered by cat's as young as Miss Ponder.  These ladies all reside in a very small village filled with very curious folk.  Nether Beck sits on the edge of a dark forest, because all great fairy tales start out on the edge of a very dark forest..........

Thanks for stopping by & May all your Wild Alice Dreams come true!!
