ART DOLL QUARTERLY 

Picture
I was thrilled to get notification from the lovely magazine 'Art Doll Quarterly' that they are including a picture of my corn husk doll 'Sweet Sixteen' in the Gallery section of their spring issue.  This issue comes out in February and I cannot wait to see it.  

The picture on the left is of this one of a kind art doll.  She is very graceful which is largely due to the natural flow of the leaves.

      CORN HUSK DOLL MAKING CLASS

Picture
This summer I had the pleasure of teaching three young friends how to make corn husk dolls.   We choose the ideal location, outside in the backyard so we could make as much of a mess as we wanted.  First we soaked the corn  husks to make them nice and pliable, then the heads were made leaving extra husks at the top to make fancy hairstyles later.   A simple body with arms was formed and then the husks were wrapped around the body to form a long skirt.  The girls had great fun decorating their dolls with dried flowers. This adventure was one of the highlights of my summer.
