I am no longer carving wooden dolls, (health issues).
These One of a Kind Wooden Dolls are all for sale. They are $100 each + shipping.



I spent hours making little fitted shimmery vests, and spent more hours messing around with lace for skirts. Sadly, the lace skirts just didn’t cut it.
So, when a dear friend gave me some vintage hankies, I had an ‘aha!’ moment…. and the skirt dilemma was resolved: Tie the hankies on with ribbons. This is a super simple non-sew skirt option that I came up with decades ago for dolls in my book: Soul Mate Dolls: Dollmaking as a Healing Art. It works so well! And, now, I am happy!














Was hoping you would write a book on carving wooden dolls. Do you have any suggestions for carving wood dolls . Like books,tutorials ? Thank you Susan

Hi Susan, I am fully committed for this year, so won’t be writing a doll carving book this year, and also need more healing time before I can get back to carving wood…. but hopefully, will be able to get back to it in a year or so. There is a fabulous doll carver, Janet Cordell – check out one of her magazine articles: http://www.carvingmagazine.com/wood-carving/projects/69-carving-a-doll
