Art Dolls in Harajuka fashion.

I love the idea of tha Japanese fashion style of Harajuka - the street fashion of Tokyo. Just wish I was young enough to wear such outrageous clothing - oh I suppose I did way back in the 70's !!!



So if I can't have the fun , well my Art dolls can !

This is Yoshina and her current obsession is Buttons.


This Ainakongo and her obsession is the traditional samuri of Japan.


And this little girly just has a passion for fur - well the fake stuff actually.

These girls are now listed on etsy. Please pop over and have a look.

I've been playing around at
www.spoonflower.com


a fabric printing company that will print your design onto quality fabrics for you. You can set your design into a variey of repeat patterns and then even sell it as well as buy it for your own use - to make all sorts of wonderful unique things.
I've been printing some of my art dolls onto fabrics and can't wait for them to arrive. Play time soon !!!

Hearts, Hearts and more Hearts.

Knowing that Valentines is a long way off but that Christmas is just around the corner, I have been thinking about decorations. Hearts in particular.
Having American cousins and knowing how they love the UK I have been creating and making British Hearts !
With quintessential British sayings printed on they are the perfect gift for Brits abroad.

I have made several different kinds.

Group of Painted wood Primitive Hearts.

Group of Rustic Hearts

And softly stuffed fabric Primitive Hearts.


It has been fun thinking of all the very British sayings, some must be really strange to the non Brit. My dear husband and I have thought of some really rudey ones - but dare I ???? I just know that they would sell !!! But do I have the nerve ?
Anyway they are on etsy ( not the rude ones- although you could order some of those) if you want to have alook .
