Alice, The Hatter and White Rabbit
were inspired by Alice In Wonderland. The mohair trio includes Alice who is 4.5" tall,  The Hatter who is 5" tall and The White Rabbit standing 5". Alice wears a little white apron with velvet initial "A" and a black satin ribbon over her ears. The Hatter wears a handmade top hat complete with 10/6 card. The White Rabbit has a hand felted face, wears frill cuffs and carries a handmade pocket watch. I have also designed the quilted tea cup and saucer included in this set.

Are We There Yet?
Three little bears are almost to the Bear Show! They were driving along, when suddenly, their little car could not get up the hill. What to do? Push, of course! And with one to steer and one to give instructions! Poor little bear in back is working hard, but he'll get the job done! This vignette was created with three miniature bears, all from imported faux fur, blown-glass doll eyes with Ultra-suede eyelids, and sculpted epoxy clay noses. Their arms are wired for posing, the foot pads are Ultra-suede, and they are shaded with oils. The bears and the car are removable from the scene. The scene itself was handmade  and created from a variety of miniature railroad and sculpting supplies applied to a wooden base.
