Over the years I've made many angels of different forms and shapes. Some were wooden, some cloth, some animal angels, terracotta angels, mixed media angels, and even cross-stitch angels.
"Susanna" is a young, but very special angel with some very beautiful qualities and a very special charge. She is a kind and loving angel who has a very special heart. One who manifests nothing but goodness in everyone and everything.
Her charge is to spread compassion, love, understanding, peace, contentment, and grace to everyone she meets. It's a tall order for such a young angel, but Susanna feels she is up to it.
"Susanna" is a 12" Victorian faceless cloth angel doll. She has a muslin body and her boots are black and cross laced. Her blond hair is fashioned into bangs in the front and long pigtails tied in the front with ribbon. Wrapped around the top of her head is a floral garland.
She is wearing lace trimmed pinafore bloomers that are gathered at the waist and a lace trimmed pinafore slip that is also gathered at the waist.
Her beautiful white dress has a lace trimmed center bodice with lace trimmed front to back straps, lined and lace trimmed over sleeves, and lace trimmed sleeves. Her dress is three tiered with lace trimming on each tier and gathered along the waistline. It is gathered at the neck edge and then adorned with a pearl and lace ribbon trim.
Her wings are wired satin ribbons and fashioned in a bow in the back. She is carrying a small pink floral bouquet.
Susanna is anxious to fulfill her mission. Spreading compassion, love, understanding, peace, contentment, and grace to everyone she meets is a tall order but Susanna feels she can do it with your help. Will you help her?
"Angelic Marion" might look like the sweetest angel you'd ever want to see, but she is anything but "angelic!"
She's as tomboyish as they come and loves to rough house it with the best of the boy angels. Of course, angels aren't supposed to rough house - at least that's what they've been told.
"Angelic Marion" is a 12" primitive angel doll who is coffee stained throughout. She has a muslin body and embroidered face with black cross stitched eyes, embroidered nose with orange water color shadowing, and an outline embroidered mouth with orange water colored inside. Her eyebrows are embroidered and she has bright orange water colored and blushed cheeks. Her boots are made of lace trim.
Angelic Marion has a mass of cream mohair yarn hair glued all over her head. A gold halo hangs over her head.
She is wearing fringed bloomers that are gathered at the waist and legs. Her angel dress has a lace and ribbon trimmed center panel, lace trimmed sleeves and is gathered at the neck. There is lace trimming along the bottom hem of her dress and lace trimming around her neck. A lace ribbon is wrapped around her waist for a waistband.
Her angel wings are lined and lace trimmed along the edges and has a large lace ribbon bow on the back for decoration.
Despite her desire to rough house "Angelic Marion" is very conscious of her "angel" duties and does not take them lightly. She wants to prove that she can be "angelic" even is she is a bit of a tomboy!"
"Tattered Grace" is an adorable Victorian or shabby chic angel with a secret.
She's as tomboyish as they come and loves to rough house it with the best of the boy angels. Of course, angels aren't supposed to rough house - at least that's what they've been told. As a result she's constantly replacing her beautiful white dress as her dress has become tattered and unacceptable for wearing.
"Tattered Gace" is a 12" shabby chic angel doll. She has a muslin body and black bead eyes. She has blushed cheeks and silver metallic DMC embroidery floss boot stripes.
Grace has a mass of beautiful, shiny white yarn hair glued all over her head. A gold halo hangs over her head.
She is wearing fringed bloomers that are gathered at the waist and legs. Her angel dress has a lace and ribbon trimmed center panel, lace trimmed sleeves and is gathered at the neck. There is lace trimming along the bottom hem of her dress and lace trimming around her neck. A silver metallic DMC embroidery floss bow adorns the waistline of her dress. A pink silk ribbon floral adorns the neckline of her dress.
Her angel wings are lined and lace trimmed along the edges and she has three pink toile bows on the back of her angel wings for decoration.
Despite her desire to rough house "Tattered Grace" is very conscious of her "angel" duties and does not take them lightly. She always wants to present the perfect image even if her outfit is "tattered" from time to time.
