The Wee Peeple Newsletter
May 2024 Issue 207
Also known as:
Bodice Babes, Corset Courtesans, Cleavage Cleopatras and
as they jokingly call themselves: Valley Girls!!
Dolls made especially to be tucked right into
M'Lady's Front Office! Indeed!
yet... essentially they are but simple
also known as:
Tiny Dolls
meet and match Mushroom Madness..
That's right. Whenever these Tiny Girls are not
wayfaring around in their Buxom Bippity-Boppities...
they are apt to take refuge in
certain Wee Mushroom Forests!
where, in fey demonstrations of
the Sympathetic Fabrical Magical kind
namely- "Like-attracts-Like"
they are swiftly able to
blend in with their surroundings!
And one can Just Imagine
Halloween!
Every year the Dollmaker receives requests for
SO... The Lady Pins are Back!
Yes, Another Iteration of this popular Accessory!
This time they are adorned with Sequined Fringe!
Very Fancy!
The Sequined Fringe is so luxurious that the Dollmaker
was compelled to move on to larger surface areas..
so...
Now that the Dollmaker has finally started making
what passes for dolls again these days...
How's that Art Installation going?
So far, so good!
The Dollmaker's Idea for a Seasonal Circle of Life Mandala
The 4'x4' Mandala will be installed
to the left of the front door at the
Mary Nichols Art Center on Loop 230 and Burleson Street
in Smithville, Texas, in July or August of 2024
as part of a larger Mosaic project covering most of the building.
The Dollmaker's statement is that she is having
gangs of fun with the community members joining in!
Adults, Children, Moms,
and random aesthetically-blessed individuals interested in
a Maker Space in Smithville-
-all these people just show up to work on Art Projects.
The Smithville Community Gardens Building on 2nd Street and Lee.
Thursday and Friday afternoons.
The Circle of Life Mandala
is set up in it's own work space now!
Come on over and add something to it!
