Hi and WELCOME to NancyAndFriends, where it is always play time !

 

I am so glad you came by for a visit...wish we could pull up some chairs, put the tea pot on and talk Dolls, Bears and Jewelry.

This is what my site is going to be all about...but please stay with me as it is under construction.

 

I do have some of my dolls on the next two pages.  These are Original Cloth Dolls, all hand painted and dressed in vintage to antique clothes.

My dolls are collected by collectors all over the world and they have found some wonderful new 'mommies and daddies' and fabulous new homes to live in.

At this point I want to heartfully thank each and everyone who has purchased a doll and allowed me to continue having fun at an art that I so fully enjoy.

I started with sculpting Original Porcelain dolls...my husband made all my molds for me and we were really becoming quite well known but I lost my mother suddenly and altho I won't go into detail...my creative flame just seemed to flicker and go out.

 

Years later, my precious daughter encouraged me (actually 'nagged' is a better word) to start making teddy bears, if I wouldn't make dolls again.

So, off I went on a new adventure!  And what fun it was and still is.  For years I sold my bear creations...and now I am embarking on yet another adventure. 

Cloth Dolls and Jewelry.

 

Making a website is not exactly what I do best nor do I enjoy doing it...so I hope you will check back with me and be patient as I take the ardous journey of creating my new website.

 

A fun thing happened about a month ago...Dolls Magazine notified me that my doll Mattie was nominated for the 2010  Dolls Award of Excellence.

Please see her in the August Issue of Dolls Magazine 

 

DOLL COLLECTOR magazine, September issue...has two of my dolls featured in The Gallery.

TBAAF AWARDS... two dolls each took First Place.  Thank you for your votes and the opportunity.

 

So, lots of exciting things going on the last two months.

 

Please click on the following pages and see some of my creations that have already found homes.

And THANK YOU AGAIN FOR STOPPING BY FOR A VISIT !!!
