My Photo

about me

  • I am a dollmaker. I love antique fabrics and hoard them. I collect old china doll heads without bodies and leather doll bodies without heads and never put them together. I have stacks of old photos of people I don't know. I have two smart and funny kids who complain that I hang plates on the wall instead of pictures. I have a great husband who travels with me and who I used to garden with but now don't because all I do is make dolls. Luckily he still likes me. So all in all somewhat normal ...depending , of course, on who you ask.

A Fairytale

Mary_and_corey_065_2

A shingled manse where fairies dance and teacups blow in the breezes

Nestled within is a wonderland...of dolls come alive and feasts for the soul and the senses.

Confections abound and china dolls dance

and the seeds of true friendship flow blue as the sea

   The  Fairy Godmother embraces us with true elegance and grace and the love that they share flows  out in abundance and we sip as the cup runneth over.

Oh Nicol what lovely glimpses you've catched of Corey's godmothers home and the pretty white fairies! That chandelier is so inspiring! I can only imagine what a magical time you must have enjoyed there!

Lovely. I love to see how each of the lovley ladies share the time they had, in the Fairy Godmother Magical Castle. Thank you for sharing.
I love your photos they are all beautiful, espcially the one of Corey and her Godmother.

True friendship flowing blue as the sea!
You are loved. The beauty of that moment is caught tenderly within your post. xx

Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures. Chloe (my 11 yrd. daughter) and I are in-love with Mary's home. We all need a fairly godmother like Mary. The only problem is we would never want to leave. You must have been enchanted the whole time you were there. Blessing Clarice

It all looks like the most wonderful dream! Lucky, lucky you!

Like a dream this lovely post beckons all to dip into the beauty you have recorded, a faerie tale come true... XO

Oh Nicol, I am loving your photos! Your sweater sat quietly with my camera, while we sailed away... I cannot wait to see you again! Hugs!!!

What a splendid day! Are you sure you were in N. California and not Cape Cod (the style of the house). Corey and godmother Mary really know how to entertain!

beautiful pictures of what seems a beautiful day

everything looks just breathtaking...i just love that tea~cup wind~chime...

dear nicol...you have said it all perfectly...it was all so sweetly divine. it's wonderful that our paths have now crossed.

What a lovely woman Corey's Fairy Godmother is. (and what I've seen of her house, one who shares beauty and kindness generously)

I hope to grow up to be like her, don't you?

What a special occasion to share with such beautiful friends and a Fairy God Mother!

Nicol- I love the first photo- very ethereal. I'm so sad I had to miss it but wonderful to see it through your lens!

Love this post, especially the photo of the teacup windchime, just enchanting...all of it. Thank you for sharing a glimpse of the party to us.

Such a beautiful way to make an occasion of friendship! Would that we were all so lucky to have a Fairy Godmother to weave her spell.

Hello, Nicol
