alice

Nestled between two of my favorite pieces of decor, my backwards-ticking clock and my muffin-shaped cookie jar, is my Alice doll.

I'm pretty pround of her, because she is handmade (by me) from just scraps lying around the house. I went through a bit of an Alice obsession (muffin and backwards clock? not surprised if you guessed)

"But wait, you haven't seen my replica Mad Hatter's original hat!"

and kind of enjoy making dolls more than the average person.

I recently also made a Tinkerbell for my sister, and a few scrappy plush button animals. Once I went a little overboard and sewed a doll in the likeness of a friend for her birthday. She was a pleasant blend of uncomfortable and pleased, from her expression. 

and we never spoke again.
