Prototype Mase~SOLD~

Mase was sculpted by Lilianne Breedveld, poured by Claire Taylor and brought to life by me, 

Debbie Henshaw of They Never Grow Up Nursery

She is 20 1/2 inches long and weighs 8 pounds, 14 ounces

She has full arm armatures from the palms of her hands through her shoulders...it is an awesome armature!

She also is fitted with the Drink and Wet system which works amazingly well.

She has a light Asian skin tone complete with a Mongolian birthmark on her bum.

She will travel home with a beautiful and complete layette and accessories as seen in the photos.  (The tan bear and pink posing cushions are not included but the personalized Mase items, clothing and mint bunny are.)

Mase is SOLD and I won't be doing another one of her.
Thank you!

She is a stunning piece of playable art!

Dolly House face lift!

The Dolly House is beautiful once again!

I hired a handyman to re-stain the Dolly House as the weather had begun to take it's toll.  "Ray" did an amazing job!  (I had to finish the last parts as the project took longer than anticipated...we do good work!)

 Before:

After:

I suspect that this facelift will last a lot longer than the original sprayed on stain as it was all hand brushed and some parts were done twice to three times.

I opted to keep the trim off of the dormers as the trim was causing water damage as rain and snow would accumulate on that trim.  I think it looks pretty nice and choosing a dark stain covered up what could not be sanded and cleaned off. 

I am well-pleased!

(My kitchen on the other hand is still a construction zone but I DO have a subfloor now! 

I have selected new, light grey tones wood laminate.  I am currently waiting for the cabinet designer to come over and give estimates to add a few new cabinets while I make changes to the layout of the kitchen.  A painter is working up a bid to paint all of the cabinets, old and new.  She cannot paint until  September/October so I will get the new floor and cabinets in first.)

New floor and cabinet color samples:

The kitchen will go from browns to grey and whites.  I hope to get new quartz countertops as well as a new porcelain sink.  

The Dolly House is glorious and the kitchen will be too!
