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.
