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.

Pumpkin Beastie's



Vera is a Pumpkin Beastie - just because she's a beastie does not mean she is without manners.   This will be the first series of dolls I've created -  I did a Google search for pumpkins and was fascinated by the many colors so when I am done I will have a yellow, orange, white, green, blue & maybe a black Pumpkin Beastie too.   I am looking forward to making the blue beastie and maybe a gentleman or two!! 

Anyway Vera is about 7 inches tall and made with mostly vintage fabric and paper clay.  Her dress is an old log cabin quilt top with lots of odd colors & fabrics - these are dreamy, faded, last rose of summer colors.

Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of all time.  One day each year I get to wear what I want & no one questions or comments on what I am wearing - Halloween is definitely for the fashionably challenged!!  Candy's not bad either....................
