Beach Babe #5: Thelma

Please meet Thelma Halfrida Ignacia Normansen
Thelma is the fifth doll in our Beach Babe Collection
Thelma is of Norwegian decent and is a willfull soul....

whose second name Halfrida makes her the peaceful heroine to all who know her....

but her red hair does bring out her fiery personality at times, especially when her sisters line up before her to get their picture taken! So she decided she needed her very own photo shoot to show off her new dress and hairdo.

Welcome Thelma, Halfrida, Ignacia Normansen to the jeanlee dolls collection!
You bring a smile to our face.
We dearly love you!

A Peek Inside Our Workshop

I am in love with these two little girls.  

They aren't finished yet but I can't wait to show you.   

They are my favorites so far.

Take a peek.   I'm curious to know what you think!

Named after my oldest daughter...   Ashley is almost complete. 

I love her hair, a combination of hand-dyed and hand spun, wool, silk and curly mohair locks.   

Ashley is my 9th doll.   She is my first creation to give me a feeling of perfection.   

Everything about her has fallen into place perfectly.   

Her arms, legs and body shape were born in my mind,  then I sketched her onto paper.   

I imagined a new way to attach her arms and as I stuffed them with wool she came together effortlessly.    From start to finish, she has been a dream.   

When I hold her in my arms I am completely pleased with her.  

She will be dressed in hand embroidered linen and 

Liberty of London -Tana Lawn fine cotton 

which my mailman delivered from England.

Next...  how about a peek at my bitty baby?    She's just learning how to walk.

I loved crocheting her tiny shoes from pearl cotton.  

Because it was my first time, each shoe took me 8 hours to complete.

My two sweethearts will be available for purchase in Our Etsy Shop on August 20th.   

I can't wait to show you more!!!

Goldilocks is our fourth Storybook Doll.  

You may have heard the story of Goldilocks and her pals - The Three Bears.   

Her best friend is Baby Bear.   He let's her sit in his chair at dinner time.   

She's very fond of Mother Bear because she makes the best porridge for dinner.   

Often Papa Bear takes her to the river for a day of fishing and adventure.   

But her favorite pass time is looking for honey trees with Baby Bear.
