Horror Kokeshi dolls

Sometimes I have a cutie overload and have to break out with something a little darker

Dobie

I do love black and tan dogs

Scottie

Just for comparison here is the westie and scottie together

Some feedback

I have been working on dolls house sized dogs for a wee while now. Mainly to challenge myself, the more detail you can put in a small piece the better the bigger dogs will be.
I just thought I would share this lovely feedback I got from a lovely lady who has 3 of my dolls house pets

Perfect for everyone who, as myself, are really frustrated not being able to find decent pets for their dollhouse. After you try these you'll never go back to poor resin and ceramic copies. These ones are fluffy, tender, posable, realistic: will bring life to any dollhouse
it's awesome how these animals are tiny and realistic at the same time

It is so nice when people take the time to give you lovely feedback like that.

Spirit hound

I have always been interested in the history of Boudica

What is not to love, a woman who led the revolt against Rome in Britan and burned to the ground their capitol city and at least two other cities

Pretty amazing lady



I have been reading the Manda Scot series of books on Boudica and it inspired me to make my own spirit hound

Read the books and you will understand :) and join me in platting kill feathers into your hair, grabbing your horse and calling your hound to battle

Teddy

The other weekend I did the Scottish Bear Fair again, so I thought I should make a few teddies

Not alpaca this time, regular merino, but he developed a great wee character while I was making him

He is falling back on his front paws with his little toes curling over

Another collie

I do love my border collies
I couldnt resist making another one
This is one of my smallest - she is actually dolls house sized (although her head is a little big - for detail and cuteness)

Tiny cat

This tiny cat is 1 inch to her shoulder
She is a custom order and on her way to Russia.

It is exciting to think how well traveled my little fuzzies are - they get to more places than me!!

Big head Westie dog

My mum was asking me what the difference between a Scottie dog and a Weastie was
Well the easiest way I could think of to explain was to make one of each

and for some reason I decided they wanted to have big heads :)

When will we three

The alpaca teddy animals all together

Alpaca Teddy leopard.

The final of the three

any idea for names?

Alpaca teddy lion

2nd in the series - a lion with a silky soft alpaca mane

Alpaca Teddy tiger

Using the lovely Alpaca fleece I found on my summer holidays I have tried a range of artist teady animals
The alpaca makes them silky soft

Dachshund

Trying to felt every breed of dog I possibly can
So any suggestions??

Also trying out photographing in my brand new dollshouse
