Tipsy Teacup Creations: My wish for today...

My wish for today...

Ahhhh wouldn't it be a lovely thing to be able to get this much done at once? Although I have to admit I do not think I would make a grand fashion statement with so many arms?

I am running a bit behind but wanted you to know that my next two creations will indeed be surfacing soon. I had a terrible mishap with my dolly made from Jess's pattern so will be starting over. I just had to keep tinkering with her face and, yup you guessed it, the paint decided to take on a mind of it's own and wow can that be a no no!

I also have my new Itty Bitty Uht Uh that will be making her appearance soon. Her name is Mairee Ayne and she is oh so charming and very country.

Oh Ree sorry about the paint mishap...I have had the same thing happen and it's sooooo frustrating.

Looking forward to seeing your new Itty Bitty Uht Uh.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could clone ourselves...maybe not...two heads may just come up with twice as many ideas! LOL!

Thanks for updating my button so quickly.
Warmest hugs,

Yay! A tea party with friends! Let's sit down, sip, and share!

A Tid Bit About Ree

Pull up a cozy chair, have a friendly cup of tea with me, and let me tell you a tid bit about Ree!

I was born 1973 in Philadelphia, PA., to two incredible parents whom blessed me with the most beautiful childhood a little girl could hope for. My father was a lifer in the Navy and just about the most amazing man you could ever meet. My mother is just as amazing and one of the most caring moms I could ask for. My Dad was such a creative man which is where I believe I inherited my artistic gift from and my Mom never passed up the chance to play dolls with me when I was a little girl which is where I believe my strong love for dolls comes from. Put those two together and here I am as Tipsy Teacup Creations.

As stated above, I truly do believe my heritage contributed a great bit to my creative skills and love of dolls, but I have to tell you a secret. I came across doll making accidentally. Yes, can you believe it, I said accidentally. Let me tell you the story, after my darling Siamese cat Mable decided to attack one of my childhood handmade dolls I frantically decided I had to figure out a way to fix her. I started to thoroughly look at her and examine how she was made. I had it in my head that I would not stop until she was back to her original glory and, you know what, I did it. I had her back to her precious self in no time. Needless to say, after that magical repair I was hooked on soft sculpture and the art of doll making. I have extensively studied the soft sculpture art form and have self taught myself since that fateful day in 2004. I even managed to make friends with a sewing machine or two. Over this past year I have taken several online doll classes which have been amazing. I will never stop learning or trying to improve my skills no matter how many years go by.

While I do so love all kinds of art and dolls the art of soft sculpture has quickly become my artistic outlet and sole creative passion. I am thrilled to be able to relive my childhood, as well and my little boy's childhoods, and share my works with you! You will notice that I have a huge range of interests which, without a doubt, shine through via my creations.
