The Bird Gerhls - Four New Dolls

Ye Olde Shoppe UpdatesYour Name6 Comments

I can't seem to get away from this bird motif...it wasn't planned, but I will readily submit.  Below are the photos of my most recent dolls, and I'll be announcing the details of my shop update shortly (it's looking like Sunday).  I'll also be posting links to the shop listings so you can see prices and details in advance of the update itself.

 

Wren lives on a windswept outcrop where she feeds gulls from her hand and mostly keeps to herself.  The villagers think she's a witch.  I guess when you sequester yourself, wear vaguely victorian clothing and talk to birds, you're sort of poking the hive...

Gretchen is taller than every boy she's ever met and stronger, too.  She can only fit swallow eggs on her head, but she's channeling Ostrich all the way.

If there was a ballet called 'Bluebird' it would star Maeve.  But she wouldn't eat wet kleenex or stab the other dancers or get up to any of that other weirdo ballerina behaviour.  She'd make them all a nice cup of tea and offer up embroidered hankies.

Gisele is the weird one, let's be frank. She's a little bit gawky, a little bit of a bird herself. But she's fiercely loyal and can put up her dukes and when she gets into scraps defending one of the Bird Gerhls, she doesn't even get a run in her stockings.
