Tipsy Teacup Creations: Tears in my eyes...

Tears in my eyes...

Truly! Okay so I may seem a bit goofy to some but with all honesty when I saw these pictures in my inbox today I smiled till it hurt and I cried happy tears.

Let me try and explain a bit, you see, when I create it's not just a job to me. The job part came as a second blessing and due to my creations selling I am able to have what I love as a full time job. How blessed am I?

At any rate, as I was saying, when I create I am just not pinning, cutting, sewing, stuffing, sculpting, and painting. Oh no, I am doing SO much more. I am pouring my heart and soul into my creation. I truly am. I see them come to life, I see their personalities grow, I fall in love with each and every one of them along the way. Really! They take on a whole life of their own. I wish I had a nickle for every time I hugged one of my little ones as I made them LOL.

So you can understand right? What it means to actually get to SEE them so loved and in a happy home? Oh I think you can get the jist of it now, oh yes I do. Tis just me, Ree, and my wonderfully happy wonderland!

Thank you Susan and Michele for the special blessing today!

Much Love and Squeezes

Ree, you have made our day!! It has been a ROUGH 2 years with losing Daddy, Mom losing the house and moving in. She says that Sprynkles has been one of the only highlights of the past two years. We needed a little slice of happiness and you have given it to us with the bg's. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us! We love you!!!

XOXOXOXO Michele

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.
